Chair of Chechen Parliament stands up for Kadyrov’s son after a disputed tournament

Adam Kadyrov is ready to fight a second battle with a rival from Kabardino-Balkaria, Magomed Daudov, the chair of the Chechen parliament, announces amid the disputes over the victory of the son of the leader of Chechnya. Ramzan Kadyrov insists that the judge’s decision was justified.

The “Caucasian Knot” has reported that at a tournament, 13-year-old Adam Kadyrov defeated Aslan Bittirov, a fighter from Kabardino-Balkaria. Social media users noted that a referee began counting the knockdown, despite the fact that Aslan Bittirov did not touch the floor with his hand or knee. The “Grozny” TV Channel released a story to prove the honest victory of Adam Kadyrov. However, Instagram users considered the journalists’ attitude biased.

Magomed Daudov, the chair of the Chechen parliament and an uncle of Adam Kadyrov, announced that the boy was ready to fight another battle with Aslan Bittirov. The chair of the Chechen Parliament associated the criticism of the judge’s decision with the media’s desire to “promote themselves,” the “Chechnya Segodnya” reports.

In connection with the discussion around the fight, Ramzan Kadyrov called on people “to be fair” and “not to listen to the one who was lying.”

The leader of Chechnya emphasized that he was against stopping the battle between his son and Aslan Bittirov. Ramzan Kadyrov also urged to bring up fighting qualities in children.

Earlier, fights with the participation of Kadyrov’s sons have already raised doubts among fans. During the Grand Prix Akhmat 2016 MMA (mixed martial arts) tournament, three of Kadyrov’s sons won the fights. The coach and the father of the knocked out child said the fights were staged.
