Andrei Arlovski got into a brawl with an influencer at the fights on Friday.
Andrei Arlovski is not a man to be trifled with.
On Friday, the former UFC heavyweight champion was in attendance for the Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua superfight at Kaseya Center in Miami, and during the event, Arlovski got into a brief altercation with influencer Jack Doherty and his entourage.
While walking through the concourse, Arlovski and Doherty bumped into each other. A member of Doherty’s entourage exchanges words with Arlovski, and then throws a punch, prompting “The Pitbull” to return fire. Multiple other members of the entourage then try to attack Arlovski, who tosses one to the ground and kicks him, before throwing punches at the others until they retreat.
For his part, Doherty attempts to play peacemaker, repeatedly telling his compatriots to “chill,” to little avail. The brawl dissipates quickly as others intervene, and Arlovski is escorted off and into an elevator, while Doherty’s friends keep talking trash and giving Arlovski the finger.
You can watch multiple angles of the altercation below.
Arlovski left the UFC in 2024 on a four-fight losing streak. Since then, the former heavyweight champion has plied his trade at Dirty Boxing, Misfits, and BKFC. He’s scheduled to fight Ben Rothwell for the BKFC heavyweight title on Feb. 7.
