In Russia, there has been a struggle under MMA rules between 240 kg blogger Grigory Chistyakov and four times lighter Darin Mazazd.
At the beginning of the fight, Chistyakov almost pressed his opponent against the cage wall, but later fell to the floor and, receiving continuous blows to the head, gave up.
MMA judge Mark Godard called the event disgusting and shameful. “It simply came to our notice then. This is what MMA is trying to combat – a bad reputation, public discontent. This is how we show MMA. Shameful. Disgusting, ”Godards writes in his Twitter account.
Wasn’t sure about posting this, but decided I’d be failing you all if I didn’t

This is what we are dealing with – in 2020. This is what we are fighting against as the parallels & negative connotations are continually drawn. To outsiders & detractors this is MMA. Shameful. Sickening. Abysmal. ???? https://t.co/lWDyXy7R0z
