This cheerleader repeatedly told the bully she didn’t want to fight and cause a scene. But the bully didn’t care and then proceeded to suckerpunch her. It turns out that wasn’t the best idea. Here’s the footage. Take a closer look and see for yourself.

In a 2018 incident that resurfaced online, a California cheerleader was caught on video calmly refusing to fight a bully—until she was suddenly punched. Despite trying to deescalate, she quickly defended herself, landing several punches and flipping her larger opponent to the ground—all while still holding her phone.

The video, shared by her sister Sierra Sprague on Twitter, went viral with praise for her composure and strength. Surprisingly, the cheerleader faced no disciplinary action, despite being in uniform during the altercation.
