Shamil Musaev is going to have a lot of MMA fans talking about him, but probably not for the reasons he was hoping for.
The Russian welterweight won a battle of unbeatens against Uros Jurisic (11-1) on Saturday at KSW 58 in Lodz, Poland, taking a unanimous decision to improve to 15-0. After the fight, there appeared to be a disagreement between the fighters’ corners.
As their teams argued, Musaev approached Jurisic and tripped him to the mat. This was no friendly post-fight horseplay either as he began throwing punches at Jurisic.
