Fighter Arthur Kulitsky apologizes to Ramzan Kadyrov

Russian freestyle fighter Arthur Kulitsky has apologized to the leader of Chechnya for criticizing Kadyrov’s subordinates. The fighter attributed his remarks to the influence of YouTube bloggers and the effects of alcohol.

Today, hardcore fighter Arthur Kulitsky, also known as Akab, has posted a video of his apology on his Instagram page.

“I would like to apologize to the Russian authorities, to the president, and personally to the leader of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Akhmatovich Kadyrov for the words I said. I was drunk, I heard enough of various YouTube bloggers with an incomprehensible focus. My mind was clouded, and my brain was like in a fog. I have no control over what I was saying,” Arthur Kulitsky stated. In the text of his post, the fighter explained that he was recording a video, for which he then had to apologize, while being in a state of alcoholic intoxication.

Arthur Kulitsky has emphasized that he does not share the opinions that he himself has expressed earlier.

A day earlier, on August 31, a video with Arthur Kulitsky was posted in the Instagram public account “pop_mma_original_”, in which the fighter criticized “lawlessness in Russia” and specifically “Kadyrov’s subordinates,” as well as the “lawlessness in the fraternal Republic of Belarus.” “Why is there a war with the fraternal people, with fraternal Ukraine?” the fighter adds.

In another video, posted on the same Instagram page on the same day, Arthur Kulitsky suggests that he will be silenced and even forced to apologize.
