Video: Deniz Ilbay gets kissed, humped after loss, then knocks Max Holzer out of cage at OKTAGON 69
The OKTAGON 69 main event between Max Holzer and Deniz Ilbat will be one to remember, but for the wrong reasons.
Both men went to war for three rounds, but in the fourth, Holzer was able to get Ilbay out of there, submitting his opponent with a nasty rear-naked choke 4:14 in to the first championship stanza Saturday at Westfalenhalle in Dortmund, Germany.
After getting the tap, Holzer talked trash towards Ilbay, before a disrespectful celebration led Ilbay to lose it, chasing Holzer before knocking him out of the cage. Holzer wasn’t hurt, as he continued celebrating on the floor.
