‘WingedC’ Claims Assault After Interrupting Karate Combat 61 Fight

The incident underscores mounting concerns over Karate Combat's security during an influencer push.

Overview

  • Malcolm Schuyler, known as “WingedC”, entered the pit with a white cane during Curtis Millender vs. Claudio Ribeiro on Saturday, forcing the referee to stop the action.
  • After the event at the fighter hotel, Schuyler posted videos alleging Millender “sucker punched” him.
  • The footage shows Schuyler bleeding in the lobby as police arrive, and Yahoo Sports reports he was removed from the property.
  • Millender, a UFC and Bellator veteran who lost to Ribeiro that night, was described as visibly upset about the in-fight interruption.
  • The stunt, along with a pre-fight brawl that scratched Patricky Pitbull from the main event, raised fresh questions about safety and the pull of influencer stunts in a professional setting.
