Chaos Erupts After Kickboxing Match in Serbia: Greek Fighter Attacked

A kickboxing match in Serbia descended into chaos after Greek athlete Yannis Tsoukalas was attacked by individuals who stormed the ring following his knockout loss to Serbian fighter Vahid Kicara. Members of Kicara's team assaulted Tsoukalas, with the fighter's brother reportedly punching him while he was kneeling in prayer. The situation escalated with approximately 50 people becoming involved in a brawl, attributed to insufficient security personnel. Tsoukalas was taken to a hospital in Belgrade for precautionary examinations and has since returned to Greece after being discharged.
