Fans and media members weren’t the only ones who were disgusted with

Fans and media members weren’t the only ones who were disgusted with Shinya Aoki’s actions immediately following the Mizuto Hirota bout at Dynamite!! 2009. World Victory Road was too, and now they’re demanding that FEG take action and “severely reprimand” Aoki for his behavior.

Sengoku has made an official representation to DREAM and parent company K-1, asking that Shinya Aoki be penalised for the bad sportsmanship he displayed against Hirota after beating him in the New Year’s Eve fight.

The move is being supported by an organisation called the Japanese Martial Arts Federation, which issued a joint statement with Sengoku (Championship in Japan) and called for DREAM (a mixed martial arts organization promoted by Fighting and Entertainment Group) to chastise Aoki for what he did “to ensure that such a display of bad sportsmanship is never repeated”.

“Despite the best chance to improve the status of mixed martial arts nationwide, Aoki‘s actions after the fight threw that opportunity down the toilet,” is how the New Year’s Eve event is seen by the Federation, which also castigated Aoki for “repeatedly running proudly around the ring” when he had finished taunting his opponent.

Sengoku hopes FEG will comply and make an example out of Aoki so such behavior isn’t exhibited by other fighters in the future.

Watch the arm break! OUCH!!!
