Karate Combat Brawl: Pitbull Brothers Ambushed
9 May
Summary
- Pitbull brothers were allegedly ambushed by Rind's crew with water guns.
- The fight was canceled after Patricky suffered an injury during the brawl.
- Brothers claim Karate Combat President orchestrated the incident for clicks.
Chaos erupted at a Karate Combat fighter hotel in Miami on May 1, leading to the cancellation of Patricky Pitbull's much-anticipated debut. The Pitbull brothers allege they were ambushed by rival Shahzaib Rind's associates, who initiated a brawl by spraying them with water guns. This altercation resulted in Patricky suffering an injury, forcing his withdrawal from the event.
The brothers, Patricio and Patricky Pitbull, claim the incident was orchestrated by Karate Combat President Asim Zaidi, who also coaches Rind. They assert that Zaidi manipulated events to create animosity and generate social media engagement, including the use of AI to alter fight images. The promotion subsequently posted content portraying the brothers negatively, exacerbating the situation.
Karate Combat President Asim Zaidi has denied orchestrating the events, though he confirmed the Florida Athletic Commission temporarily suspended the Pitbull brothers and Diego Brandao pending review. Patricio Pitbull strongly refuted Zaidi's claims of covering all expenses, stating the promotion paid only for his brother's flight and coach. He further alleged Zaidi is a liar and has failed to compensate his family or team adequately for the ordeal, demanding an apology and financial restitution.
