  • The fight broke out for unknown reasons on an island next to a traffic light

This is the shocking moment an angry taxi driver confronted a cyclist at a red light in a heated fight, before violently throwing him against his car.

The fight broke out for unknown reasons on an island next to a traffic light near Jubilee Way in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, where the two exchanged blows.

Footage shows the two men confronting each other before the cyclist provokes the fight and aims multiple right-handed shots at the driver’s head.

But the cyclist is quickly overpowered and unable to land many blows as the motorist delivers a series of blows before grabbing his opponent and slamming him into his vehicle in an impromptu wrestling move.

The driver is seen stumbling after being hit by the cyclist, before regaining his composure and pushing the cyclist into the car and unleashing a flurry of rapid punches.

The cyclist, dressed all in black and still wearing his helmet, appears exhausted after the motorist punches him in the jaw and leans against the red car to steady himself.

But the punishment doesn’t end there, as the driver proceeds to grab the rider around the waist before performing a belly-to-back suplex, a move known as a “backbreaker” in professional wrestling.

The driver, who is the shorter of the two men, shows impressive strength to lift his opponent off the ground and throw him into the front seat of his engine.

One user reacted: “But that suplex.”

Another added: “The taxi driver kept the meter running and everything.”

Another added: “Always nice to see the underdog come out on top, the rider had all the advantages but he held them back.”

A fifth commented: ‘The cyclist won’t be proud of this.

“Taller, longer reach, helmet on, must have a weight advantage, probably fit with all the cycling he does and then get German suplexed in the taxi driver’s domain.” Unreal.’
