MMA fighters Patricio Pitbull and his brother Patricky Pitbull have accused former RIZIN champion Kleber Koike of attacking Patricky from behind in their locker room during Super RIZIN 2 and then fleeing.
Patricio Pitbull and his brother Patricky Pitbull have leveled serious accusations against former RIZIN champion, Kleber Koike. They claim Koike infiltrated their locker room during Super RIZIN 2 and assaulted Patricky from behind. The allegations were first made public by Patricio via social media, where he disparaged Koike for supposedly assaulting his brother and making a swift exit. The incident supposedly occurred following Patricio’s loss to Chihiro Suzuki by a first-round knockout.
Koike, who Patricio has previously beaten in 2022, chose not to comment on the alleged episode when approached. On the other hand, Patricky gave more insight into the incident in a voice note sent to his followers. Recounting the events, Patricky explained how he had noticed Koike, dressed smartly, passing by after his fight with Roberto Satoshi and had an inkling that Koike would confront Patricio if he won his match.
Patricky further stated that after Patricio’s loss, he was appalled to see Koike celebrating; this drove him to confront Koike in the ring where he prophesied his future defeat. As stated in his voice note, following a small altercation, he then ran into Roberto Satoshi, Koike’s teammate, and relayed that Koike was being an affront and unmanly in his celebration of Patricio’s loss. The confrontation continued in the locker room. With his back turned, Patricky claims that Koike attacked him from behind, causing a brawl within the locker room. Koike, however, supposedly escaped before they could catch him.
Lastly, Patricky mentions that he tried to confront Koike face to face one last time before leaving for Brazil. He claims to have sent a private message to Koike stating “I’m waiting for you to show up before I leave to Brazil.”
