A video clip recently went viral on social media where a young man hailed as the 'Internet Karate Kid' got into an altercation with an MMA coach. The interesting thing about the video is that it was his first training session, and yet, he was trying to impart knowledge to a professional coach.

Nicknamed the 'Internet Karate Kid' by the uploader of the video, the kid appeared to be sharing kicking techniques while the MMA instructor seemed to be annoyed right from the beginning. The coach then offered a light sparring session so that the 'Internet Karate Kid' could get a chance to showcase his techniques live. But the kid hesitated to engage and tried to dodge the situation. He even went on to say that the coach was being disrespectful toward him.

The coach got visibly angry and said that if the kid really felt that way, he should put on some gloves and do something about it.

Seconds later, a brawl broke out between the two. The instructor hit the kid with some open-palm strikes and then went on to take him down to the ground. After landing some vicious blows from the top, the instructor allowed the kid to get up, but the kid tried to land a body kick and received more blows in response.

Fans react to the viral 'Internet Karate Kid' video

MMA fans took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the viral video. People commented on both the kid's behavior as well as the MMA instructor's actions.

One individual said that the 'Internet Karate Kid' did well in the altercation against the MMA coach. The user also questioned the instructor's legitimacy as an MMA trainer, as he was unable to knock the kid out:

"Karate kid held his own. If the MMA trainer was so-called badass and a good fighter, the karate kid should have gotten knocked out or put to sleep. He left, not hurt or bruised up."

Another user argued in favor of the instructor, saying he could have done more damage if he intended to:

"Everyone saying the mma fighter cant fight? He throw open handed blows and purposely didnt go for face shots for majority of the fight, hes an mma trainer? Serious injury can be listed as assassult with a deadly weapon?"
