Gunshots fire during post fight MMA brawl in Florida

It is unclear how the brawl started

A wild brawl erupted at an MMA event in Florida, where fighting fans tossed chairs and traded punches before one pulled out a gun and opened fire, video shows.

Footage obtained by TMZ shows the chaos that broke out following the main event at Saturday’s RIZE Fighting Championship in Lake Worth, where hundreds of fans were on hand to see a bantamweight title match between Alexis Fernandez and Filipe Valentim.

It’s unclear how the free-for-all at the Bamboo Room got started, but droves of people are seen pushing and shoving each other before chairs start flying and security guards desperately try to contain the growing melee.

"For 20 seconds, everything’s going back and forth, it was intense," co-owner Darren Cummings said. "For us, I’m not so sure we are going to allow these events anymore in our parking lot. We will stick to what we do, which is more live music."

A message seeking comment from the Palm County Sheriff’s Office early Tuesday was not immediately returned.
