A man has been punched to the ground, cutting his head in a brawl at Sydney's King Cross.

The 18-year-old was assaulted at about 1am (AEDT) on Thursday after two groups of men had an argument at a bar on Bayswater Road.

Both groups left the bar but then brawled near the intersection of Darlinghurst Road, both dispersing after the 18-year-old was punched and fell to the ground.

He was taken to St Vincent's Hospital and treated for a cut to the head.

A police spokeswoman said on Thursday morning he was still in hospital because he was too intoxicated to be properly assessed by doctors.
