Grandfather and grandson fight against a woman in TWO-ON-ONE Russian MMA fight
A female fighter was pitted against a 75-year-old man and his 18-year-old grandson in a shocking two-on-one bareknuckle MMA fight in Russia.
Yulia Mishko, 28, entered the octagon cage with Vladimir Spartak and his grandson Big Igibob during the controversial inter-gender match for Russia's Epic Fighting Championship yesterday
The fight saw the two men, who did not have prior professional fighting experience, try and launch a series of punches at Mishko, who is known by her nickname ''the Tomboy'', before she struck the pair - sending one of them to the floor.
Footage from the fight, which lasted the full six-round distance, shows Mr Spartak, who claims to have fought in the Vietnam war, and his grandson take turns to launch a series of punches at Mishko.
Mr Spartak then moves closer to the female fighter and tries to land more strikes as Mishko swings at him.
But the grandfather approaches the woman again and tries to land another shot as his grandson watches the pair with his hands raised.
At one point Big Igibob appears to slip as he attempts to run away from Mishko's punches - leaving his grandfather to take the brunt of her force.
As the rounds continue, Mishko gains control and launches a punch at Mr Spartak - sending him spiralling towards the canvas.
She then lands an uppercut on Big Igibob and he falls to the floor.
The hapless trio continue to circle the octagon as MMA fans watch the bizarre fight unfold.
The six-round competition was scored a draw by the referee despite the grandfather and his grandson falling to the ground three times and Mishko walking away rather unscathed.
Mr Spartak later told reporters that he had given up winning the fight after round three, The Mirror reports.
