A fight in Istanbul ended in violence when French boxer Murad Aliev was attacked by a group of spectators immediately after his victory over Turkish opponent Umut Çamkiran. The bout, which took place over the weekend, saw the 31‑year‑old Aliev win the match, but the celebration was marred by provocation from the local crowd, who supported the home fighter. According to media reports, the situation escalated quickly when several spectators entered the ring and began striking Aliev with fists and chairs. The attackers reportedly continued to assault him for several minutes. Organizers struggled to remove the boxer from the venue and to keep the crowd under control. Aliev sustained serious injuries and was taken to a hospital, where he is reportedly in intensive care. His medical condition has not yet been confirmed by official sources.

The boxer is regarded as a rising talent in the heavyweight division, but the violent incident in Istanbul has cast a shadow over his recent success. Article source: 24 Orë | Image credit: 24 Orë
