Brits cheer as two men brawl on street while woman pleads for them to stop in latest violent incident sparking outrage in Tenerife

Two men have been captured having a vicious fight on film as a crowd of Brits cheer them on at the holiday island of Tenerife. 

Footage from Playa de las Américas, a purpose-built holiday resort, and shared to Instagram showed the men throwing hard punches at each other and dozens egged them on, with just a handful of people trying to break up the fight. 

It’s not currently clear why the fight, which happened in the early hours of Saturday morning. 

Though the pair looked evenly matched, swinging their fists and legs at each other for a few seconds, one man, seen wearing a white T-shirt and blue shorts, caught the other’s face with his fist which sent him to the ground. 

As the shirtless man was seen scrambling to safety, a British woman could be heard screaming: ‘Stop it! Just stop it!’ 

As the shirtless man was seen running, she was heard screaming: ‘Please stop it, this is bullying!’ 

He was apparently tripped up by a bystander, giving his opponent a chance to tackle him to the floor and beat him relentlessly. 

This gave others in the crowd the idea to join in, and several people were seen swarming the two men.

One person, seen in a black hat, T-shirt and shorts, was spotted taking a run up before kicking the shirtless man in the back.

Finally, the pair were pull away from each other.

Another wrote: ‘Police security is zero, what a shame.’
