What caused the prisoners to come to blows is unknown.  

The pair are separated from the rest of the prison since their safety is at risk from other inmates who are disgusted by their violent crimes against women.

Serial sex offender Bayley has raped or attempted to rape 12 women, which makes him a target in the rest of the prison.
