Volkanovski om bråk på fighterhotellet

Alexander ”The Great” Volkanovski (26-4) satt I publiken under helgens gångna gala UFC 304. Den australiensiskaföre-detta mästaren i UFC:s fjäderviktsdivision fick dock se fler kamper än de som ägde rum i oktogonen den natten.

På fighterhotellet, där deltagarna under galan var inackorderade i den engelska staden Manchester, skall två män ha inlett ett slagsmål. Volkanovski skall ha gjort mer än bara beskådat bråket. Han berättar hur han försökte stoppa våldet.

Slagsmål på hotellet

I en video uppladdad till hans Youtube-kanal, förklarar Alexander Volkanovski hur två män började slåss i lobbyn till fighterhotellet efter UFC 304. Han beskriver även hur han försökte stoppa bråket.

I don’t know if I should even bring it up. I don’t know; maybe I won’t bring it up. You guys are going to hate me for that. I won’t say who was involved, but I’ll tell you a little bit. Something happened in the lobby between two guys. One was a fighter; I don’t know if the other guy was a fighter. I don’t think he was random, but stuff happened.

There might have been a little punch thrown. The other guy tried to get to him. Security tried to stop it. I’m like, ‘It’s not worth it, it’s not worth the cops’. I’m trying to stop it. Guys were stepping and getting around all the security guards. I was trying to help, but he stepped around me as well. I’m like, ‘This guy has got some good movement’.

Föll ner på knäna

I kalabaliken skall Volkanovski försökt hålla grepp om en av de två män som initierade bråket. Detta skall dock i sin tur ha resulterat i att Volkanovski föll till sina knän, berättar han.

He’s going again. I’m trying to tell him to ‘chill out’. Again, he’s come on; I’ve tried to grab him. We almost ran into the bottom of the stairs, so we sort of went down. I fell to my knees. As I’m trying to hold him, he slipped out. I was like, ‘This guy is very slippery’. There would have been a few security guards trying to stop him, he just found his way around, even I was falling off him.

I don’t know if there will be footage of that coming out, so I’m not going to say any names. But if they do, you might see that. It’s pretty funny. See if there’s footage out there. If there’s not, you’ll never know who it is, and I’m sorry. I’m thinking, ‘nah’, I’m not going to say any names. Sorry guys, I’m going to get in trouble.
