That second fight looked fake AF.

Pushing, and pretending to hit at each other.
Spraying each other, except everyone is wearing face masks.
Aiming at shields.

IMO it didn't look like anyone was actually enraged, or fighting.

I'm always surprised people bring sticks to these shield fights.
They should upgrade to a piece of rebar, or a 1/2" thick length of threaded rod.
They're about $10 at most hardware stores.

Much like most public fighting and hooliganism it's all a bit handbags at dawn.

Both sides want the rush of having a fight but not the consequences of getting hit. It becomes more like a ritual dance off.

The dance off is probably preferable to the rebar option.

The trouble is it's passers-by who don't know the routine who end up getting hurt.
