Kaliningrad boxer Sergey Gorokhov (16-11-2) knocked out local fighter Emirhan Kalkan (7-0) in the second round in Trabzon, Turkey, but was immediately attacked by a mob in the ring. After Gorokhov celebrated his victory, a man in civilian clothes entered the ring and scolded him. When Gorokhov approached without hostile intent, the man shoved him, and Gorokhov's cornerman Ismail pushed back. This triggered a crowd of people rushing into the ring to attack Gorokhov and his team. Ismail and another cornerman required hospitalization, after which the team immediately drove from Trabzon to Georgia, removing their Russian license plates for safety. The violent incident occurred directly following what appeared to be a legitimate boxing victory.
