In the wild footage, obtained by the Daily Telegraph, Balapour and Yacoub are seen standing with other men on a footpath and speaking to each other.

The conversation turns into a fight when Balapour shoves Yacoub to the ground and starts to throw punches. When they both regain their feet a chase ensues across the road. At one point Balapour pulls an item out of his pocket and hits Yacoub with it.

The pair are seemingly broken up out of view of the camera.

No one has been charged over the incident.
