Aftermath
During the event post-fight interview with Jonathan Haggerty, Venum Training Camp's co-owner Mehdi Zatout and Alaverdi Ramazanov bypass security to stage confrontation with Haggerty, they breached security and forced themselves into the ring despite attempts by security to prevent them from doing so. It is unacceptable behaviour and jeopardises the safety of everyone in the stadium, make the CEO Chatri Sityodtong has suspended both Zatout and Ramazanov from attending events for 6 months.[11]
