Update \u2013 June 25 at 6:30 PM EST The \u2018Suns in 4\u2019 guy has declined the invitation to duke it out with the Nuggets fan in a rematch, claiming that he \u201calready got a W.\u201d However, he would be interested in entertaining the offer if Barstool\u2019s Rough N Rowdy shows ever got involved in MMA. Nuggets fan MartyBandz has weighed in on the news. pic.twitter.com\/UYHUxCC6X3 \u2014 The Unnamed Show (@barstoolunnamed) June 23, 2021 The news comes after the Nuggets fan told Barstool\u2019s Dave Portnoy that he would be down for an organized fight rematch after their viral brawl a couple weeks ago. It\u2019s unclear if Barstool has any plans to shift gears and pivot its event into an MMA one. Original story follows It\u2019s not exactly rare to see fans of two rival sports teams duke it out in the stands, but Suns fan Nick McKellar went incredibly viral after his fight with a man known as \u201cMarty\u201d back on June 11. After appearing to take a punch and retaliating with a few blows of his own, McKellar cried out \u201cSuns in four\u201d as security showed up. The simple phrase became a viral sensation, with the Suns fan becoming a bit of a star in the following days\u2026 and Barstool Sports even made T-shirts commemorating the moment. While McKellar has been featured in news interviews and turned into a living meme, his opponent has been trying to tell his side of the story and even wants a second round with his rival. Most disrespectful moment here was \u201cSuns in 4\u201d https:\/\/t.co\/piYbub2nQa \u2014 Barstool Sports (@barstoolsports) June 12, 2021 In an interview with Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, Marty explained that, while he believes McKellar came out on top in the arena, he wants a rematch. \u201cYou know, I\u2019d say he got the better of me, but that\u2019s why we\u2019re trying to set up a rematch for you know?\u201d he said. \u201cLet\u2019s see if he really got the better of it. If he did, then he should be able to do it again.\u201d Barstool Sports, which owns the \u2018Rough N Rowdy\u2019 fight company, is down to make this a reality. With McKellar open to fight again, Dave wanted to see if Marty was onboard. \u201cWould you box this guy?\u201d Portnoy asked the Nuggets fan, who was absolutely down to take the match. \u201cWe gotta set this up!\u201d After a bit of back and forth and some questions about the whole fight incident, Portnoy doubled down on the idea, telling Marty that now that he has his contact info along with McKellar\u2019s, a fight is certainly in the cards. \u201cI think this is a great Rough N Rowdy. Settle it in the ring. Fair,\u201d Dave grinned. Thus far, it\u2019s not known when the two will actually have their rematch, but seeing as how all parties involved are interested, chances are we get some concrete information in the days and weeks ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cSuns in 4\u201d guy declines Barstool\u2019s offer to set up boxing match against Nuggets fan after viral brawl TwitterA Denver Nuggets fan still upset after losing a fight against a Phoenix Suns fan in a viral video is down for a rematch \u2013 and Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy is down to make it happen.
