A viral video surfaced this weekend of free agent QB Cam Newton fighting off multiple men during a sports tournament.

Despite transitioning to a full-fledged media personality and podcast host, Cam Newton has still found time to mentor youth and he recently did so during the We Ball Sports x DynastyU 7v7 tournament at B.E.S.T. Academy.

Despite the kids being excited to see him, Newton was seen defending himself from detractors who seemingly tried to jump him during the game.

According to Yahoo!, a brawl ensued during the tournament after several men tried to attack the quarterback. In the footage that was released online, we’re reminded of how Auburn won its only National Championship in recent memory because of Newton’s athleticism.

It’s unclear how things transpired, but the group learned Mr. Newton isn’t a regular civilian.

The brawl looked like a regular NFL Sunday for Cam as he held his own with no help on offense. Honestly, the former NFL MVP put on a master class in self-defense. He immediately knocked one man off the stage, and locked up a second man with a choke, while using another man’s dreads to control him. It’s worth mentioning the NFL Vet’s trademarked “eclectic topper” hat never left his head during the scuffle.

Social media sleuths shared a video of a man named @TopShelfTJ bad-mouthing the athlete just a day before the tournament and it’s believed that he’s one of the men involved. That rumor remains unconfirmed.

The footage is sparking social media reactions, including some from former NFL athletes.
