A former ONE Championship fighter was electrocuted moments after profitable a battle at a Weed Boxing Championship (VVED BC) occasion in Thailand.
On June 22, Ivan Parshikov stepped inside a hoop surrounded by, of all issues, a pool. He in the end gained the match, however his celebration rapidly turned to catastrophe. Leaping towards the pool, Parshikov grabbed a close-by mild fixture, which instantly electrocuted him. You may truly hear the audible zap within the clip beneath, seconds earlier than Parshikov’s physique goes fully limp and crashes to the canvas.
But one way or the other, the Russian rapidly regained consciousness as if nothing had occurred and proceeded to dive into the pool.
We’ve seen some fairly loopy stuff go down in Thailand, however that will take the cake.
Parshikov takes being electrocuted in stride
As for why there was a pool round a wired-up ring within the first place, VestnikMMA supplied some perception into that.
“There’s this uncommon event in Thailand, held on Phuket Island known as VVED BC, the place it’s nearly like common boxing, however earlier than the battle, it’s important to take a puff, and the ring is about up by a pool, so you possibly can take a dip after the bout.”
Parshikov later posted on Instagram concerning the incident and gave the impression to be in good spirits.
“The concept of diving from the ring into the pool was not essentially the most profitable one,” he wrote. “I’ll add the total chronology of the occasions a bit later,” he wrote.
