* This has happened a number of times with combat sports competitors, notably boxing and MMA. [[RealityEnsues This is not a good idea however.]] Away from rules, regulations and referees, brawling can lead to the combatants getting injured, maimed or even killed. Plus some sanctioning bodies may prohibit this, leading to fines, suspensions or even bans. There's also the reality of getting arrested and going to prison.

The SoreLoser (usually it's a sore loser, but not always) is not pleased that they lost the big game, got a bad call from a referee, or were humiliated in front of spectators. So what do they do? They decide to physically assault the offender after the game has ended and everyone's gone home. They usually intend to inflict a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown and/or CurbStompBattle on the offender.

As the examples show, it usually does not go well for the instigator of this trope. Usually, it turns out to be the assailant that ends up on the receiving end, adding to their HumiliationConga. This can serve as AnAesop about sportsmanship and accepting defeat.

Expect to see this trope in sports related media (bonus points if it's a combat sport like boxing, karate, MMA, etc). Note that this trope doesn't have to happen immediately after the contest. It can take place beforehand or in between events.

If the violence happens inside the playing area during the game, it's UnnecessaryRoughness. If the violence happens outside the playing area during the game, it's RingOut. If the fans are the violent ones, it's FootballHooligans. If the intent is to injure the opponents to hamper their skills & abilities, it's CripplingTheCompetition.

One of her [[GracefulLoser more honorable opponents]] warns them to stay away. But later on, bikers riding in a truck [[DisproportionateRetribution attempt to run Haurka and Usagi off the road]]; they then attack Haruka afterwards, but she easily mops the floor with them.
* Subverted in ''Anime/IGPXImmortalGrandPrix''. Team Satomi manages to beat Sledge Mamma, despite mechanical sabotage during the race. The team thought this was something Sledge Mamma would do, since they usually use underhanded tactics. After the race, Takeshi, Liz, and Amy are ambushed by a group of thugs who had previously hassled Takeshi. Sledge Mamma showed up behind them, leaving Satomi trapped between two. Satomi feared the worst. The thugs attack, but are quickly beaten down by Sledge Mamma. The thugs admit to being Sledge Mamma fans, but Yamma tells them [[EvenEvilHasStandards that what they did was despicable.]]

* Subverted in ''Film/TheMightyDucks'' second movie.

[[AC:Western Animation]]
