Well, that escalated quickly

A Russian MMA event turned into the Royal Rumble last night.

The ProFC clash between Shamil Abdulkhalikov and Mikhail Kolobegov descended into mayhem at the weekend.

The fight was scheduled for three rounds but a “judicial error” resulted in an extra round being called. Kolobegov delivered a stunning flying knee KO in the final stanza, which Abdulkhalikov’s team did not enjoy in the slightest.

Abdulkhalikov’s cornermen were so enraged by the way the fight had finished that they stormed the Octagon and became involved in a full-on brawl. The cornermen were seen attacking the victorious fighter while he was celebrating the win.

After landing a couple of blows and a knee on the fighter, chaos ensued as the ring flooded with more people who seemed desperate for a scrap. Check out the shocking scenes below.
