Juan Manuel Lopez won his junior lightweight bout with Wilfredo Vazquez Jr. on Saturday night in Puerto Rico by way of knockout in the 11th round.
However, the fireworks were just starting as Vazquez's corner got upset as Lopez celebrated and one of Vazquez's trainers jumped into the ring to fight Lopez.

Lopez fought back as both he and the trainer landed punches. Lopez's trainer ran in and also joined the fray before it all got broken up as to avoid a full own riot in the ring.
The two fighters embraced in the ring after the fracas, but there's clearly some animosity between the camps that boiled over into one of the wildest scenes we've seen in boxing in 2016.
