Alan Ritchson was armed with a bodycam when he allegedly got into a fistfight with his neighbor Ronnie Taylor in Tennessee on Sunday.
The footage, which was shared on TikTok and can be seen on TMZ, gives a broader view of what really happened between the two men before the altercation turned bloody.
And now it has become more obvious who instigated the takedown.
Taylor approached Ritchson – an actor best known for the TV show Reacher – and his two children when they were riding their motorcycles down a suburban street, it can be seen in the clip.
The angry neighbor is then seen leaving his property, crossing a sidewalk and walking into the middle of the street where the Hollywood actor, 43, was riding his green Kawasaki bike.

At one point Taylor allegedly stepped in front of the star’s motorcycle with an aggressive legs-apart stance to block him from driving down the street.
That appeared to anger Ritchson who laid down his motorcycle and approached Taylor.
That is when the screaming began as Taylor said the actor was riding ‘like a f***ing lunatic’ as he expressed his concern for the other children in the neighborhood, according to the bodycam video.
The actor then told the neighbor that he was out of his ‘f***ing mind’ and asked if he had been drinking, the bodycam video also showed.
Later the actor told Taylor that he should have run him over with his motorcycle as the neighbor stepped out onto the street.
Then the star picks up his motorcycle, gets on it, places his helmet back on and revs up the engine over and over, which appears to infuriate Taylor.

That is when the argument gets physical as seen in the clip.
Taylor can be seen pushing the actor and his motorcycle to the street twice.
Then Ritchson gets physical right back as he uses his fists to hit Taylor’s face several times. After he has hit him, he demands he stay down.
TMZ has obtained an image of Taylor with bruises and cuts to his face after the fight.
The police are investigating the fight.
A Brentwood Tennessee Police Department spokesman told the Daily Mail: ‘There is an active investigation, and no arrests have been made. There will be a police report available when the investigation has concluded.’
The Daily Mail has also reached out to Ritchson’s representative for comment and has yet to hear back.
Taylor has also shown an image of his face with bruises and cuts on it.
