MMA performances at the UFC 305 PPV event were extraordinary. The Perth crowd present in the RAC Arena were seemingly enjoying the fight of the homeboys. Interestingly, it was not the fighters who were only in action. As it seems, there was a massive brawl in the crowd which garnered a lot of attention.
Per reports, the brawl among the fans occurred after the heavyweight clash between Tai Tuivasa and Jairzinho Rozenstruik. However, there is no evident information about the reason for the brawl. Interestingly, the brawl escalated very quickly as such the cops had to intervene to stop it.
As reported by The West Australian, the cops issued move-on notices for the men involved in the brawl. Moreover, the cops also removed the individuals causing trouble at RAC Arena. Interestingly, this is not the first time, when such a fan brawl has been seen as a UFC event.
In one such instance, at a UFC event in Mexico, headlined by Brandon Moreno and Brandon Royval, a massive crowd fight broke out. Following that incident, UFC CEO, Dana White was in complete shock and mentioned that he had never seen anything like that fan brawl in his life.
Although on several occasions, the UFC has tried to tighten security to avoid such situations, the problem still persists. Allegedly, the brawl at the UFC 305 was a result of a disagreement on the outcome of a fight. The fight in question is the heavyweight clash between homeboy Tai Tuivasa and Jairzinho Rozenstruik.
