Indian boxer Neeraj Goyat, who’s signed to Most Precious Promotions, locked horns with former Bellator MMA fighter and boxer Anthony Taylor on the primary card of Misfits Boxing 23 this previous weekend in Dubai.
Stress between the 2 was excessive earlier than the battle, with Taylor offending Goyat by disparaging the latter’s nation and its lack of proficient boxers.
Contained in the squared circle, ‘Gangster’ needed to reply, and he did. With efficient footwork and head motion, he evaded Taylor’s vicious blows. After the primary spherical, it was all Neeraj Goyat along with his multi-punch combos doing many of the injury, and Taylor failing to land clear constantly.
After the sixth body, Goyat, who had dictated the tempo for almost all of the rounds and had a extra constant output, cruised to a unanimous decision victory (59-55, 58-56, 60-54).
The backstage altercation between Anthony Taylor and Neeraj Goyat
After the loss, Anthony Taylor got here to shake palms with Neeraj Goyat backstage within the medical room, and the Indian boxer refused by saying:
“The f**ok are you talkin’ man? You don’t even learn about boxing, man.”
Taylor didn’t just like the reply and tossed a bottle on the Indian boxer for refusing to shake palms and bury the hatchet. Earlier than throwing the bottle, ‘Fairly Boy’ quipped: “Shut up, b**ch.”

The 2 have been rapidly separated, and Taylor was led out of the room. However this incidence infuriated ‘Gangster’ and his camp, who questioned how safety allowed Taylor to enter the room.
After beating ‘Fairly Boy,’ Goyat took a dig at his American foe’s previous feedback, saying:
“This American man underestimated me. I simply need to say, don’t underestimate Indians. I had stated India is your father, so India is your father. Indians positively do what they are saying.”
