A confrontation unfolded between an Armenian karateka and the Azerbaijani athlete, Alika Semikhova, who had defeated her at a karate championship in Batumi, Georgia.
The Armenian athlete exhibited unprofessional behavior by responding to her loss with a physical strike instead of accepting the defeat gracefully and shaking hands.
This incident is not an isolated case and adds to a series of provocative actions demonstrated by certain Armenian athletes.
