Anti-Israel Influencer Ido Amiaz Knocked Out in Boxing Match After Challenging 'Zionists'
Ido Amiaz, an Israeli-born anti-Zionist influencer known as 'the Salukie,' was defeated in a boxing match by Israeli mixed martial artist Shimon Smotritsky. The fight, which took place in Tel Aviv, ended in a technical knockout after approximately 40 seconds, with Amiaz being knocked down three times. Amiaz had issued an open challenge on Instagram, inviting 'Zionists' to fight him in Tel Aviv, which he referred to as 'occupied Palestine.' Smotritsky accepted the challenge, stating his intention to 'shut him up' and counter the 'lies about Israel' that Amiaz spreads. Amiaz, who describes himself as a journalist in Palestine and documents his activism in the West Bank, had initially expressed a desire to fight 'normal Zios' rather than a professional fighter, but committed to the match despite predictions of a difficult outcome.
