As Friday’s Bellator 141 –– and the in-cage bout between Patricky “Pitbull” Freire and Saad Awad –– nears, tensions are running high and nearly erupted into a brawl.
Freire and Awad’s camps were in the same area, signing posters ahead of Friday’s event, when Patricky’s brother, Patricio, caught the eye of Awad’s training partner Georgi Karakanyan, according to Eric Albarracin, a coach in the Freire camp.
For a moment, it appeared that punches were imminent, but cooler heads eventually prevailed, keeping the fighters from throwing down outside of the cage.
Check out Abarracin’s video and description of the incident below…
