Things got ugly when Magomed Ismailov and Vladimir Mineev came face-to-face in a post fight interview on Thursday night.
At “AMC Fight Nights Global: Winter Cup” in Moscow, Ismailov and Mineev exchanged a few heated words, and just seconds later, a massive brawl ensued. Punches were thrown as both fighters’ teams got involved in a chaotic scene on Christmas Eve.

Mineev and Ismailov share history, as the two fought to a draw at AMC Fight Nights Global 90 in 2018. The faceoff was intended to set up a rematch and, well, if the fans weren’t already sold, they sure will be after watching them exchange blows in one of the wildest in-cage brawls you’ll ever see.
