Bouncers initially stopped Kenzhayev when he allegedly tried bringing a knife into the club with him. However, the MMA fighter tried to enter again, prompting a group of 12 bouncers to brutally beat him.

They later dragged him to a gutter to beat him once again, before finally leaving him in a pool of blood.
