The Biggest Brawls And Fights On Field In Sports History

Things got out of control on field when something inapropriate happens between two teams or players of different teams.

The history of sports is full of many fights and brawls that took place over many years and sometimes its consequences are not so good.

Here are some biggest fights in different sports games :-

1. Kevin Garnett Head-butts Dwight Howard
A massive fight taken place in NBA history on Jan 12, 2015 when 7:30 min is remaining of 1st quarterGarnett fouled Howard.
This caused a bit of tussle between the two teams Pistons and Indiana pacers.
Garnett was thrown out of court and fined with $15,000.

2. Padres and Dodgers (Baseball)
The Padres and Dodgers brawl was the worst brawl in Baseball history. It exicuted when San Diego’s Carlos Quentin took umbrage at being plunked by Los Angeles’ Zack Greinke.

It was probably the most heated altercation we’ve seen. It  resulted in another altercation between Carlos Quentin and Matt Kemp in the Petco Field parking lot after the game, a broken collarbone for the $147 million pitcher, and an 8-game suspension for Quentin.

3.  Francis Lee v Norman Hunter, 1975 (Football)
Here is the tremendous fight between Lee and Hunter. Both of them were fined with some percent of their match fee.

Hunter threw the first punch, splitting Lee’s lip before Lee channelled the spirit of Joe Frazier, throwing left and right hooks at Hunter. However, the fact Lee was half a foot shorter meant he looked like an angry rhino trying to punch a giraffe in the face.

4.  Inzamam - ul- Haq had fight with Crowd (Cricket)
The only case of a physical between an
on-field cricketer and crowd, the sleeping
giant took offense about an Indian spectator insulting his family pack abs.
The Indian fans called Inzamam -Alu (potato) leading him to go into the stands and start pulling out that man. Inzamam was finally calmed with a promise of 10 kg Mutton Biriyani.

5. Broadhurst v Bowden: Manly v Newtown,
1981. (Rugby)
Arguably the most vicious all-in brawl in
rugby league history is best remembered
for Manly's Mark Broadhurst and Newtown hardman Steve Bowden trading punches – and headbutts – in the 1981 semi-final.

This is one for the old timers and not for the faint hearted.
