MMA fight in Florida condemned after fighter’s antisemitic comments

Paul Miller, a racist and self-professed antisemite, derided Ben Azoulay, convicted for sexually assaulting a minor

Democrats in Florida have condemned a professional mixed martial arts event in Orlando at which an openly racist fighter derided his beaten opponent as “a short little fucking Jew prick”, and a spectator was ejected for waving a giant swastika flag.

Anna Eskamani, a Democratic state representative running to become the city’s mayor, said Saturday’s event, and the assertion by city officials that they were compelled to host it, were unacceptable.
