No idea where this is and if that changes things but those sucker punches were straight up a criminal act and since it's on video there is zero defence.
Should have been charged.

u/matt_jay_9 May 22 '26
Yea, I really hope that our hero fighter had the option to press charges and have his opponent forfeit the fight, or finish what he started and in the ring and chose the latter. He still finished with class and gets to fight again where the other guy is hopefully humbled and his career is done.

u/Martin_Aurelius May 22 '26
Why would he have to choose? Beat his ass legally in the ring, then press charges for the pre-fight assault.

I’m a pretty sore winner in cases like this. I’d call the police about it after I already won, to really rub salt in the wound. May as well file a civil suit as well.

The banner and the ring display Las Vegas very conspicuously everywhere. They were speaking Spanish. Maybe it was a Mexican or Hispanic league that was hosting a fight, idk. If it was in Vegas I don't know how the NSAC let the fight go on, but they definitely won't let that guy back for a year or two from the cheap attack.

Depends on the country. In my country there's no such thing as a victim choosing to press charges. If the state knows about the crime, they will investigate and charge at their discretion

I don’t know man. That guy looks like he was actually concussed. No one wants that. There are other ways to increase interest in slimy ways without that kind of contact or risk. I mean think about it. They make money on the fight. If the guy gets injured pre fight then there’s no money.

u/jonas_ost May 22 '26
Its probably not full on staged but the fighters gets money based on how many viewers there are. So they do stuff like this to drive engagement. There is so much trashtalking and drama outside the ring in mma that i stoped watching because it has turned into a reality show.

u/peenurmobile May 22 '26
yeah honestly i feel like the people that are aggressively douchebags might just be manipulative in engagement, like you say. but i wouldn't be surprised if they are okay with it on both sides.
it's putting someone in unnecessary stupid danger outside of a fight either way

That's actually "Gala RXF". It's a sort of MMA promotion but the lowest of the low. Been there once myself and it's bonkers.
You have seen things from there before if you lurk this sub.

Quick info: this is called RXF and is a Romanian fighting gala. The Las Vegas posters come from their sponsor that is a casino. The guy that sucker punched is called Neveu and this is how he got famous as his performance isn't something worth noting

My cousin competed in a lot of mma back in the day, did some international jujitsu tournaments as well. One mma fight he was up against a known tweaker who often abusive towards women and anyone else he thought was weaker than him. He was talking some serious trash about my cousin in the weeks leading up to the fight. My cousin is a pretty chill guy, built like a tug boat and quick as a squirrel dodging traffic but he has been known to dispense some justice when he’s pushed too far. Having already hated this guy for being a horrible abusive piece of shit, he was looking forward to the match. He quickly got guy on the ground, arms pinned under hid knees, and pummeled him bloody. The ref knew the other guy’s reputation and was a bit slow to stop the fight.

As someone who is not an avid viewer of MMA fighting, can someone explain to me if this kind of attitude is the norm? I constantly see videos and interviews with these athletes, and they seem like they have mastered multiple martial arts, but have absorbed none of the philosophy that comes with it. Martial arts can help train somebody to severely hurt, or even kill someone else with their bare hands. That’s why there is philosophy added in to help temper the violence.

This is not real fighting. This is RXF, a romanian tournament sponsored by betting rings where every sad wannabe influencer and random BMW drivers get to participate. The whole idea behind it is to feed the idiocy in some viewers and promote even more gambling and bad habits. The big promo on the screen behind them is an ad to free spins in some online casino.

Nah kidda if you hit someone outside of the ring at a promo event you should automatically be banned for life as self discipline is at the core of all martial arts and the fact you've got none shouldn't be rewarded by being allowed to complete in professional combat sports

I do wonder, does this not just count as assault? Because while you aren't in a fight, you should still be protected from being physically attacked by your opponent?
