Kickboxer makes Nazi salutes after match at city-owned Orlando arena

A kickboxer who served federal prison time for promoting a race-based civil war performed Nazi salutes following a match in an Orlando arena. The fighter made the gestures after the final bell and again after officials declared him the winner of the bout against a Jewish opponent. Following the victory, the athlete directed an expletive-laden diatribe toward his opponent from the ring. Event organizers faced scrutiny for booking the fighter, given his criminal history involving extremist rhetoric. The incident occurred at a municipal venue, drawing attention to the vetting process for participants in combat sports events held in city-owned facilities. Authorities have not provided further details regarding potential disciplinary actions or follow-up investigations into the conduct displayed during the event.
