Russian MMA fighter Ianshin Aleksandr recently got into a brawl with his upcoming opponent Temirov Temir. However, the scuffle as the two fighters went back and forth during a face-off was not an ordinary one
On Instagram, Pop MMA shared a clip of the altercation. During the face-off, Temir sucker-punched Aleksandr and the two men were quickly separated by security.
The duo then went back to their respective seats before Aleksandr charged in for a brutal flying kick on his seated opponent. The kick launched Temir out of his seat and security got involved yet again to keep the men apart.
Catch the crazy brawl below:
Aleksandr's flying kick was almost reminiscent of a move pulled by former UFC heavyweight champion Fabricio Werdum. The Brazilian delivered a similar kick to Travis Browne a few years ago.
During his rematch against Browne in 2016, Werdum started the fight spectacularly by landing a flying kick to Browne's face.
Check out a clip of Fabricio Werdum hitting a flying kick on Travis Browne below:
