Very violent, and very public fight clubs are making a comeback in parts of the Valley.
We brought you the story last night at 10, showing teens trading haymakers at a park in south Phoenix.
The video was posted on YouTube.
Police say these fight clubs are popping up all across the Valley, and there is nothing they can do about it.
That's because apparently, they're perfectly legal.
If this looks familiar to you, it should.
Last May, Air15 was over a park near 30th Street and Greenway Road, where a group of 50 kids met up just to duke it out.
What do you guys think?
Are you surprised these things are legal?
Should something be done to stop them?
