You will definitely no longer become friends! Shooting star Max Holzer wins against Deniz Ilbay in the main fight of Oktagon 69 in Dortmund. In the fourth round, Ilbay can no longer free himself from a strangling area, beats Holzer’s arm three times and gives up. But then the fight really starts. We show the highlights in the video above.
Because instead of being celebrated directly from the fans, Holzer Ilbay first kisses on the back of the head and then makes an obscene hint. Then the situation escalates. Ilbay jumps in an angry and pushes Holzer from the octagon through the already open cage door. Ilbay’s father does not want to calm down either, has to be brought out of the hall by folders.
Giant-Zoff after Holzer victory at Oktagon 69
Holzer explains his action in the cage: “I was insulted all the time during the fight both by him and his father.” Nevertheless, he also pays respect for Ilbay.
Irrar: the Zoff goes on in the catacombs! The escalation potential is so high that the security forces decide to leave the two fighters separately to the medical check. Cage doctor Dr. Panagiotis Karachalios to RTL: “Holzer has brought an unsightly action in which he quasi ‘desired’. That was absolutely inappropriate and unfortunately also led to a fight that went into the normal audience.”
And further: “Usually the two fighters come in arm in arms together, but that is not possible here. So we are now blocking everything here so that Holzer can come.”
At the subsequent press conference, both fighters have actually calmed down again, Holzer even apologizes several times at Ilbay, and also wants to shake his hand. But the Cologne native rejects a handshake. The preliminary end of the zoff.
