A brawl erupted between two men at an Arkansas county Republican Party meeting after an argument between two women.
Video recorded by a local activist shows a disagreement between two unidentified women during a question-and-answer portion of the Saline County GOP meeting Thursday night, and one of the men meets up with one of the women after she walks away, reported KARK-TV.
A larger man in overalls turns around to follow the second woman as the dispute continues, and he then approaches the second man, who crouches down and abruptly punches the larger man, causing him to stagger to his knees.

Bystanders then pull the two men apart, and police said the meeting disbanded peacefully after the altercation.
No charges have been filed, and Benton police are still gathering video evidence and witness testimony.
The local news website MySaline identified the man who threw the punch as talk radio host Jimmie Cavin, whose Twitter bio describes him as a "professional bully fighter," and the larger man as Jon Newcomb.
Kenneth Wallis, who frequently records video of GOP meetings, told the website that the punch was “followed by a wrestling match on the floor," and he said Newcomb appears to be "okay" following the fight.
