Jaroslav Kotlár, known as Kotlár Security, pulled out of his Clash 17 rematch with Datel citing an injured leg and a stomach flu, and the organization confirmed the withdrawal. Datel has questioned the explanation, and MMA Shorties published alleged messages about editing a photo of the leg; that claim has not been verified. Datel now faces Kráľ Pablo and Bourák together in a 1-vs-2 cage boxing bout at Clash 17 in Ústí nad Labem on Saturday, Oct. 24, according to MMA Fanatik Slovakia.
The build-up turned physical after the public weigh-in. Michal Kotalík, known as Iron Man, slapped Pablo backstage, and video of the incident spread on social media. In a video response, Pablo said the slap knocked out one of his teeth and called Kotalík's behavior unprofessional.
Pablo said he had not expected it from Kotalík and that the dispute was between him and Datel, to be settled in the cage. "You shouldn't have got involved" (translated), he told Kotalík. The two do not fight each other: Kotalík meets Tomi Polly in cage boxing on the same card.
