Two humanoid robots traded punches while fans watched on, in a competition held in Hangzhou, China, on Sunday.
The fight was part of the China Media Group World Robot Competition and featured robots developed by Unitree Robotics.
The event included both fighting demonstrations and matches, marking a world-first combat sports event featuring humanoid robots.
