The organizers of the Beterbiev – Bivol fight in Saudi Arabia invited Kadyrov to a boxing evening.


The head of the Chechen Republic was invited to a bout for the title of undisputed light heavyweight champion
The head of the Chechen Republic, Ramzan Kadyrov, was invited to a bout for the title of undisputed light heavyweight champion between Russians Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev.
Photos with personalized seats in the arena where the boxing evening is held, one of which is reserved for Kadyrov, were published on Instagram by the official broadcaster of the fight DAZN. This photo was later deleted.
The place reserved for Kadyrov was also signed: "President Ramzan Kadyrov".
The boxing evening takes place today, October 12, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Beterbiev supports Kadyrov despite the sanctions list
Recall that Beterbiev, who holds a Canadian passport, publicly supports Kadyrov even though he is officially included in the sanctions list by Canada.
Recall, Kadyrov on Thursday, October 10, held a meeting with representatives of the power bloc, during which he discussed a shootout near the Wildberries office in Moscow. He accused State Duma deputies Bekhan Barakhoyev and Rizvan Kurbanov, as well as Senator Suleiman Kerimov, of planning his assassination.
"They have their own businesses, and they not only took this woman’s (founder of Wildberries Tatyana Kim) business, but even ordered me to be killed," Kadyrov said.
The head of Chechnya also announced a blood feud against them if they do not provide evidence of their innocence, reports Telegram channel Readovka.
Kadyrov criticizes Russian authorities for migration policy
Earlier, Kadyrov criticized the Russian authorities for tightening migration policy, stating that some measures "put Russia at odds with neighboring brotherly regions." The head of Chechnya indignantly added that migration-related problems in Russia arose not due to the fault of newcomers, so expelling foreigners will not solve these problems.
