Things turned sour instantly with one man responding by punching her smack in the face with the fight escalating as punches were thrown around. While Foden was seen remerging from the private room as things regressed, he refused to get involved in the fight .
Greater Manchester Police were contacted over fracas with the spat said to have broken out just as Kell Brook made his way into the ring. Brook went onto win the matchup on the day while Foden unfortunately failed to jump to his mother’s rescue.
Maybe he was still dreaming about the time he and Greenwood managed to get hank panky with those girls in Iceland. Or maybe he was just too downtrodden ensuing City’s defeat to Tottenham earlier in the day.
