UFC fighter Rafael Fiziev is the no.6 ranked contender in the lightweight division. The Azerbaijani national is a wild knockout artist and is currently on the rise in the division. In Fiziev’s recent visit to New York, the fighter came across a shirtless street dancer. This form of entertainment left the Azerbaijani fighter shell-shocked. A video is surfacing online that shows Fiziev’s live reaction to the scene.
In this video, Fiziev is recording the performance from his front camera so that his reactions are clearly visible to the viewers. The shirtless dancer in Fiziev’s video is singing his song out loud and is also involved in some dancing. This video went viral on Twitter. Many fans reacted and commented on this video. A fan even commented, “Funniest thing I’ve seen today.”
This video might have caught Fiziev off-guard who is not used to such antics back in his home country. Additionally, Azerbaijan as a country is not exposed to the same kind of culture that America is known for. There lie many differences in their traditions and culture. Fiziev’s reaction clearly expressed the surprise that was going through his mind during the whole performance. Further, UFC includes a lot of fighters from various nations and when these fighters come to America, they take in the experience of a new side of the Western world.
Fiziev is a known mixed martial artist and is an equally good Muay Thai fighter. Recently, the fighter fought BMF title holder Justin Gaethje in a three-round fight. Though Gaethje won the fight, Fiziev showed his heart and promise in the bout to be listed as a future lightweight elite.
