Lukas Bukobaz gets rejected by girlfriend in humiliating video
That night, the MMA fighter suffered another defeat.
The night took an even more dramatic turn when Bukobaz tried to save the night by proposing to his girlfriend in the ring, a romantic moment that quickly turned sour when she publicly rejected him and accused him of infidelity.
When Bukobaz got down on one knee and presented her with an engagement ring, her lover's embarrassed reaction was clear: “Given what's happened so far, I think probably not,” she said, adding, “I don't think so.”
The crowd responded with loud boos and one person even threw water at the stage, ratcheting up the tension, while a visibly distraught Bukobaz was left staring at the floor amid the chaos.
After the incident, Bukobaz's girlfriend explained that she had rejected him due to his recent infidelity, but Bukobaz denied the accusations on social media, emphasizing in an Instagram video that “I did not cheat on her.”
The double setback drew the sympathy of many MMA fans, who viewed Bukovac's night at the Clash of the Stars tournament as a harsh culmination of professional and personal disappointment.
