Mr Osman Yigin the WKN representative was assaulted at ringside when he was punched by Erhan Deniz of Turkey in the face because the decision did not go his way. Osman, Belgium's former world Muay Thai champion now turned WKN co-ordinator faced a very dangerous situation and received very little support as millions watched in disbelief.

Mr Cabrera said: " First and foremost our work and duty with WKN is to promote sport along with our universal values which are respect, loyalty and friendship between countries and different cultures from all walks of life around the world.

We cannot and will not let such a situation like this happen again, that is just unacceptable!Now we have to wait for the proposal for disciplinary action from the National Federation, and the Minister of sport from Turkey."
