Apparently, Slim Albaher was brutally injured by his opponent after the pre-fight press conference. The YouTuber took to his YouTube channel to describe what happened. He said, “I started walking away and Ryan Taylor being the cheap shot scumbag starts following me and screaming in my face ‘Look me in the eyes when I’m talking to you’ and I’m fully ignoring him. And then Ryan Taylor gets so close to my face and I still didn’t give him no eye contact or anything and he literally just shoves me.”

Albaher further mentioned that he was shoved hard out of nowhere, and he didn’t expect it to the point where he fell to the ground. The YouTuber, Adam Saleh, who tried to stop the altercation accompanied him. But, when he stepped in, he got choked by professional Bellator MMA fighter, Kane Mousah, who was with Taylor.
