According to the Las Vegas Police, Ali Abdelaziz went so far as to strike MMA manager Abe Kawa in the face with a 'closed fist' at the PFL 2019 event. Two officers who were working during the event confirmed that they had witnessed the event take place.
Originally, rumors about the alleged incident emerged on Friday, but now it has been confirmed by the eyewitnesses.

What happened between Abdelaziz and Abe Kawa?
According to the police report, the two officers who were working the event witnessed the Dominance MMA CEO Abdelaziz 'willfully and unlawfully use force and violence' and striking Kawa in the face.
Kawa is a fellow MMA manager, who is the vice president of First Round Management.
The two men were separated by the Mandalay Bay security. Also, a witness to the incident was the fiancee of Anthony Pettis, Leisette France, who supported the testimony of the two police officers.
No action has yet been taken by the PFL officials according to a statement that they issued with regards to the event.
“The Professional Fighters League is aware of an incident that occurred Friday, October 11 backstage at the Mandalay Bay Events Center between MMA managers Ali Abdelaziz and Ibrahim Kawa. PFL understands that a police report has been filed by Mr. Kawa and is continuing to gather information.”
According to a separate report, Abdelaziz was also involved in an altercation with Anthony Pettis as well.
Ali Abdelaziz has a history of violence
