A former world heavyweight boxing contender fought three influencers at once in an MMA bout that ended in chaos.
Remember Mariusz Wach? The veteran Polish heavyweight boxer who once challenged for the WBA (super), IBF and WBO world heavyweight titles when he fought Wladimir Klitschko?
The 46-year-old has also fought several British fighters throughout his career, including Dillian Whyte, Hughie Fury and Frazer Clarke.
He also fought exciting heavyweight star Moses Itauma, who stopped him in the second round of their 2024 clash.

Well, Wach, who has 51 professional fights to his name, made his latest appearance in a freak show contest.
Polish promotion Prime Show MMA, who are known for staging controversial and wacky match-ups, staged the event.
Wach, sporting MMA gloves, took on not one but three opponents, including a social media influencer, in a cage under what appeared to be hybrid rules.
Dawid Baran, Mariusz Sobczak and Tomasz Olejnik stood opposite Wach in the cage.
The latter two boast MMA experience, with Sobczak owning a 1-1 record at heavyweight while Olejnik is 1-4 at welterweight. As for Baran, a Polish influencer, he was making his MMA debut.
Wach survived an early scare as he beat all three opponents in just over three minutes.
He dropped all three opponents in the opening minute in an explosive start to the fight.
Sobczak quit after being dropped twice. Wach then took out Olejnik before dispatching Baran, who came out for the start of the second round but pulled out after being floored from a brutal blow.
Wach, who showed off his leg kicks, emerged victorious as the clash also included a series of comical moments, including jumping punch attempts and wayward flying kicks.
Speaking after his win, the one-time world title challenger said: "Believe me, fighting one on three is completely different. You have to keep your eyes open. There was no bad blood on my part, so I had to concentrate hard."
