Don’t you just love a good fight; for your enjoyment see examples 1 and 2 below: 
Example 1
SLIDELL, La. (WWLTV) — A 73-year-old man was beaten Thursday morning during what police described as a “brutal” attack following a road-rage incident.
Police said the beating was reported a little before noon near Reine Avenue and Old Spanish Trail. A caller told 911 dispatchers two young men were beating the victim, who was still inside his car.
Officers arrived to find Brett McCraney, 19, of Slidell, and Adonis Young, 26, of New Orleans, hiding in a nearby house. The victim, who police said was disoriented, had “severe” injuries.
McCraney told police he and Young were walking across Reine when the victim almost hit them with his car.
The suspects said they began to yell at the victim, who pulled over, which they took as a sign of aggression, police said.
“McCraney told officers he felt like he had to defend his territory and ‘show him what was up,’” said Det. Daniel Seuzeneau, a Slidell Police Department spokesman.
McCraney began to beat the man who was still in the driver’s seat of his car, while Young went to the passenger side, opened the door and also began to hit the victim, police said.
The victim was treated at a Slidell hospital for “severe” facial injuries and was later brought to University Medical Center in New Orleans. Police said he could not remember any details about the beating.
McCraney and Young were booked with disturbing the peace and second-degree battery. Police said they could face additional charges and enhanced penalties because of the victim’s age.
“This is a heinous act. There is no excuse or explanation that can justify the actions of these two men,” Slidell Police Chief Randy Fandal said in a prepared statement. “We will work closely with the district attorney’s office to ensure this case is prosecuted to the full extent of the law.”
Example 2
Authorities are continuing to investigate the death of an American tourist who they say was brutally beaten outside a bar in Greece.
Bakari Henderson, 22, was with friends at a bar in Laganas, a tourist village on the island of Zakynthos, when the fight occurred early Friday morning. It began when another customer approached Henderson, and the confrontation quickly escalated to a fistfight outside, where more people beat Henderson, according to state news agency ANA-MPA. It is not known whether his friends were involved in the altercation.
It remains unclear what prompted the fight. At least eight people have been arrested and charged in connection with Henderson's death, authorities said.
Tiara Henderson, Bakari Henderson's cousin, said in a Facebook post Friday that his death was the result of a “senseless crime” and “horrendous actions by the perpetrators.”
Surveillance videos from nearby shops showed the suspects beating Henderson even after he was unconscious, ANA-MPA reported. The recent University of Arizona graduate later died at a hospital.
A 32-year-old from Serbia and a 34-year-old from Greece were arrested shortly after the fight, ANA-MPA reported. Media reports said that the 32-year-old is a British citizen of Serbian origin, and that both men worked at the bar.
The six others, all from Serbia, were arrested later after they were recognized from surveillance videos and police raided the hotel where they were staying.
Henderson's friends have created a GoFundMe page to raise money for his funeral and to return his body to the United States. More than $29,000 had been raised as of Sunday evening.
“The love for this young man overflows and this loss is unbearable for so many of us,” according to the page. “If you knew Bakari you knew he was driven in life and no goal is never set to high for him to achieve. He was just starting his life, so many dreams and aspirations yet to be achieved.”
Travis Jenkins, a friend, told ABC News that Henderson was not the type to start a fight.
“Bakari was not one to act aggressively like that. He was always the one who was the peacemaker,” Jenkins said.
