Jeamie Tshikeva created a stir by flipping a table before his upcoming fight with David Adeleye.
The two boxers are scheduled to compete for the British heavyweight title as the co-main event of the Joe Joyce versus Filip Hrgovic fight card. At a press conference on Thursday in Manchester, England, Tshikeva, also known as Jeamie TKV, and Adeleye engaged in a heated verbal exchange.
During their back-and-forth on microphones, TKV suddenly lost his temper and flipped the table in front of him. Security personnel intervened to ensure the fighters remained separated.
See the dramatic moment in the video below.
Despite TKV`s outburst, the confrontation did not become physical. However, the two fighters continued to argue as they left the stage. They did not participate in the traditional face-off after the press conference concluded.
Adeleye, with a record of 13 wins and 1 loss, aims to add more titles to his achievements, having previously won several minor belts. TKV, with a record of 8 wins and 1 loss, also seeks further accolades after defeating Michael Webster for the IBO belt last February.
