This is social decay:
Boys having fun wearing soft gloves and punching each other is not.

FULL TITLE: Horrific video of St Louis daycare FIGHT CLUB shows toddlers punching each other's heads into the floor and crying on the sidelines while their teachers jumped up and down in excitement
A horrified Missouri mother is suing her sons' former daycare center after two teachers hosted a 'fight club' and encouraged the toddlers to beat each other up.
Video has since emerged of the disturbing December 2016 incident, which shows children pounding each other to the ground while others break down in tears.
Nicole Merseal's 10-year-old son filmed the horrific one-day 'fight club', which took place at the Adventure Learning Center in St Louis, on his iPad.
The 10-year-old was among the older children in the daycare's next room.
In the footage, obtained by DailyMailTV's St Louis affiliate FOX2, Some of them can be heard exclaiming 'Oh my god' when they see the younger kids fighting.

I dont believe it. There is no fight club. The first rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club.
Silly reasons like husband (and my father) dying young and having the choice to either go on welfare and raise me in the projects or go to nursing school and provide a good suburban life.
Sometimes the comments here are a LITTLE outdated :)
To say the least.
ROFLMAO!!!
Lil buggers with no sense.
Mama is encouraging it.
“Teachers” appear to be Dindu Nuffins.
Do I even have to guess?
Poor little Datavious...
I wish my folks had taught me how to fight while I was young. It would have made my life in school much better.
I was taught to Fight,
Still swinging at 63.
They were caught. They were busted by a 10-year-old who filmed them. Barbarians.
Most all of you that have posted don’t seem to realize the horror of this violent, social decay.
These are children. And many of you joke.
Horrific? Let's have a sense of proportion here. They were wearing "Hulk smash fists" which are boxing gloves for children. It's not like they were beating each other over the head with hammers.
Kids looked like they were having fun. I put my sons at that age in karate class. They put on pads and kicked and punched each other.
Let boys be boys. Probably do them some good to learn how to fight.
Sorry, I'm just not so outraged by this.

At the school where I used to teach (and still sub) a couple of large families moved into a low-income neighborhood a couple of years ago. They completely changed the atmosphere of the school. Anyway, I learned that there was a ‘fight club’ established in the neighborhood (not at the school) where kindergarteners would fight, the toughest kindergartener would then be paired to fight a 1st grader. The toughest 1st grader would fight a 2nd grader and so on.
The families involved have since moved away, and I believe the fight-club no longer is in place. But, apparently such are now a part of a demographic which shall not be named.
Actually, the video shows a little white boy beating up a little black one.
St. Louis, need I ask?
Far more often, they want a new car every two years.
“Do I even have to guess?”
Guess what?
So the white kid was whupping the dark kid, and a second dark complected youth tried to join in, it appears. Thus, the old saying, “Two against one is a (fill in the blank)’s fun.
