Cam Newton, former NFL MVP quarterback, has gone viral after finding himself involved in a brawl this weekend. The incident took place during an invitation-only 7-on-7 youth football camp and tournament event on Sunday in Atlanta.
How Did Cam Newton Find Himself Involved in a Brawl?
A video has surfaced that showed Cam Newton, the former Carolina Panthers and New England Patriots star quarterback involved in a brawl. The video has gone viral all over social media of Newton, getting into a wild altercation. Videos of the fight are circulating showing a couple of guys shoving Newton around before they run away to a tree-covered area. It occurred between Newton and several men who were apparently from Top Shelf Performance, who had teams playing in the first tournament. The exact cause of how the fight started was unknown. Many people believe that the altercation stemmed from a certain video of Cam Newton saying:
“If you beat my team – 15U C1N Red or 18UC1N Platinum – I will pay every single player on the team. Tell me who’s doing that. If that ain’t putting your money where your mouth is, I don’t know what to say.”
What Occurred When the Altercation Ensued
Cam Newton was grabbed by the group of men and then began scuffling. Subsequently, the fight began under a pop-up tent that was seen at the top of a football field. One angle of the brawl shows the former NFL quarterback Cam Newton standing in the middle of a group of guys. The group of men jumped on him, which resulted in Newton trying to hold them back for his protection.
Furthermore, the fight eventually spilled over to a fence. The video shows Cam Newton grabbing one of the men during the fight. This was happening as people tried to break the fight up. A man in a white T-shirt then came in and threw a big punch. Newton was able to hold the group of guys off until the police showed up to take control of the situation.
‘No Good Deed Goes Unpunished’ For Cam Newton
There has been no further information released about the fight. But it seems as though the brawl occurred at Coretta Scott King Young Women’s Leadership Academy in Atlanta. Above all, it didn’t appear anyone got severely injured by the altercation. One of the security officers ended up jumping in the middle of the fight. This also helped to get everyone to start dispersing from the area restoring order. There was, however, a removal of Cam Newton and the other men involved in the altercation. Cam Newton was responsible for putting the tournament together under the C1N foundation. Unfortunately, Cam Newton‘s charitable efforts to put together something special for the Atlanta residents didn’t stop people from trying to ruin it with a brawl.
