Israeli MMA fighter Oron Kahlon calls his opponent a terrorist during weighing (Twitter)

The fight between Israeli fighter Oron Kahlon and his Afghan opponent continues to resonate in the UFC.

As you may recall, in the pre-fight weigh-in, Kahlon called Afghan Javid Bashart a "terrorist" in response to the latter refusing to shake his hand and whispering a few words in his ear, except that inside the arena the last word was of the Afghan, who won at the end of three rounds.

Kahlon missed the rare opportunity to enter the UFC following the loss to Bashrat, who also seemed to tease the Israeli throughout the fight and after the fight told the media that "when you do not apologize, you deserve a punch in the mouth."

Bad and serious things have been said in the past -UFC, but also in other martial arts.We live in a world of political correctness, but this is one of the places where it does not exist.

"If we do not take steps following the statement?

No, because it's already done if you understand what I mean.

This is the beauty of this sport, as I say all the time: it is not a nice sport, but very tough.

"We keep saying serious things to each other, but justice is served at the end of the day," he said, referring to the fact that the Afghan defeated the Israeli Kahlon. "The best way to resolve such cases is to enter the arena to fight, and that is what happened."
