Khamzat Shimaev It caused quite a stir at the 'Fitbox Fighting Championship' press conference, held last Thursday (29), in Oman. All because Anthony Zeidan lost control and went after Dzhokhar Dushuev, almost anticipating the main fight of the company's fifth event. Present at the ceremony, the middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg) didn't like what he saw and showed who's in charge.

During the face-off, Zeidan pressed his forehead against Dushuev's, was pushed, and threatened to punch him. Security quickly intervened to prevent a worse outcome, but the athlete remained agitated, challenged his opponent to a fight, and nearly destroyed the press conference set while attempting to attack him. 'Borz' was the one who restrained the bad boy.

After carefully watching the episode, Chimaev waited for Zeidan to leave the stage, walked towards him, and had a less-than-friendly conversation with him. During it, the UFC star raised his finger at the fighter, reprimanding and advising him. Attentive, the bad boy listened carefully without reacting. After the tense moment and interaction, 'Borz' calmly left the area.
