Islam Makhachev’s Coach & MMA Fans Sickened as Fighter Displays “Very Bad Sportsmanship” Against “Unconscious” Opponent

Mixed Martial Arts is a combat sport that can be brutal and unforgiving. A knockout or technical knockout (TKO) is a common occurrence in the sport and can be a devastating experience for the fighter on the receiving end. While MMA has developed over the years, the physical and mental demands of the sport remain high, and fighters must always respect their opponents and the rules of the game.

However, there are some instances where fighters are called out by the fans for being too brutal and merciless. It usually happens when a fighter continues attacking an unconscious opponent. This is something that happened recently.

MMA fans call Mohamed Grabinski out

A recent video posted by Red Corner MMA featuring Oktagon MMA fighter Mohamed Grabinski has sparked controversy and backlash from fans and experts alike. In the video, Grabinski‘s opponent is on the ground and appears to be almost unconscious. Despite this, the 23-7 record holder throws several powerful hammer punches at his grounded opponent after the opponent merely touches Grabinski‘s foot.

It is unclear whether the referee had stopped the fight at this point; but Grabinski‘s actions have been widely criticized as unnecessary and unsportsmanlike. The fan reaction to the video has been largely negative, with many expressing their disappointment in the 31-year-old’s actions. However, some fans have even sided with Grabinski and pointed out the referee’s fault. Here are some fan reactions –

One fan said – “Poor sportsmanship. Guys a too”

One fan commented on Grabinski’s control and said – “How can you call yourself a professional when you don’t have any control?”

Another fan backed Grabinski. The comment read – “Ive seen it live and was supporting the guy who got smashed, he got walk off koed and the referee did not step in for some reason, after the guy walking away felt being touched by the almost unconsious guy on the ground he went in to finish the job. Referee mistake.”
