Abdurashidov, 21, struggled in the early stages of the fight against the Iranian.

Faraji was heading for a points win as the fight entered into the fourth and final round at the Ali Boxing Club.

However, with just seconds left, the Russian hit him with a devasting kick to the head, which was an illegal move.

As a result, Abdurashidov was disqualified from the fight but still boasted about it on social media.

He wrote: “So I debuted in professional boxing.

“And disqualification for life, that kick with the leg I threw away with a machine gun!”

The post was filled with comments from fans demanding that he be “arrested” for the heinous act.

One posted: “He should be arrested for assault and battery, and banned from doing any combat sports ever again. That is so low.”

A second wrote: “He has to be banned from all the sports.”

A third commented: “Tell us you suck at boxing without actually telling us that you suck at boxing.”

Another added: “Should put him in jail for that.”

He is facing a lifetime ban from boxing to bring his time in the sport to an abrupt end.

Abdurashidov has posted again on Instagram to confirm that he has made amends with Faraji.

He shared a picture of the two shaking hands and posing for a picture together.

He wrote: “We shock hands between us.

“Everything is fine, we made up.”

Abdurashidov is a professional in MMA and currently has a record of 4-0.

He fights in the Asian promotion ONE Championship.

It is not yet known if his illegal kick will have an impact on his future MMA career.
