A video of Cam Newton being involved in a physical altercation is currently going viral on social media. According to multiple outlets the Carolina Panthers great was at his 7v7 event in Atlanta, Ga when the altercation went down.
It’s unknown how the fight started, but it began under a pop-up tent that was seen at the top of a football field. It eventually spilled over to a fence, where Newton was seen not letting go of someone as people tried to break the fight up.

Then a man in a white T-shirt came in and threw a big punch, though it didn’t appear anyone got severely injured. A security officer ended up jumping in the middle of things, too, as everyone started to disperse.
Fox News believes the altercation may have stemmed from a certain Newton video in which he said, “If you beat my team – 15U C1N Red or 18UC1N Platinum – I will pay every single player on the team. Tell me who’s doing that. If that ain’t putting your money where your mouth is, I don’t know what to say.”
This comment came before this tournament, but it’s something that Newton has said in the past.
“We need that up out ya @cameron1newton or you can write a check payable too [sic] @topshelf7v7,” TopShelf Performance’s general manager, Steph Brown, wrote on his Instagram Story on Saturday.
He added a different post on his Stories that read, “It Ain’t No Fun When the [rabbit emoji] Got the [watergun emoji,” while tagging C1N’s 7v7 team account.
