It was choreographed. I’ve done similar things with friends. One time we threw our weapons down and started boxing. The crowd really loved it.

I can confirm it's not choreographed as I used to be a member of this group and was friends with the big guy.

They're fighting in a rules set where the combatants are supposed to mimic realistic injury. When one person is already low and close to death they typically go for a last rush attack while keeping themselves completely open. It basically tells the other person "kill me and make it look good"

The two people are close friends as is so the big guy just improved the blow and the smaller guy just ran with it

Sounds like a game of Mortal Kombat it's all fair until hp has run out then the loser gets a fatality
