Kaliningrad boxer Sergei Gorokhov and his team were attacked by a mob inside the ring following his second-round knockout victory over local fighter Emirhan Kalkan in Trabzon, Turkey. The incident began when Gorokhov celebrated enthusiastically after his win, prompting a man in civilian clothes connected to Kalkan to confront him. After Gorokhov's cornerman Ismail pushed the man, approximately 50 people stormed the ring and assaulted Gorokhov and his team. Ismail and another cornerman required hospitalization. Following treatment, the three immediately drove from Trabzon to Georgia, removing their Russian license plates for safety. They successfully reached Georgia without further incident. Gorokhov held a 16-11-2 record before the bout, while Kalkan was previously undefeated at 7-0.
