The president of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov chose an unusual punishment for his Minister of Sports Salambek Ismailov. The latter acted as a sparring partner in the boxing match with the head of Chechnya.
Kadyrov visited the Ministry of Sports and Physical Education and was unhappy with the state of the building. Therefore, he decided to deal with the minister in a boxing match. Later Kadyrov uploaded few pictures from this match to his Instagram account and accompanied them with the following comment:
As promised, I had an educational conversation with the Minister of Physical Education and Sports in the boxing ring. During our dialogue (or rather sparring), I gently and unobtrusively explained him with right and left hooks how he should use his head. Minister started fixing his mistakes the same evening – therefore, I allowed him to wear a helmet. After all, he will have to work tomorrow)))) The “punishment” was observed by the Minister of Labor of Russia M. Topilin and our Minister of Labor M. Akhmadov. Whether Akhmadov will be punished in the ring as well, will be clear after tomorrow’s meeting.
Before the match itself, Kadyrov demonstrated his boxing skills for camera.
