Abdu Rozik caused a lot of uproar by accusing his boxing rival Eraly Boykobilov of cheating.
The three-foot-tall Tajikistani star made his long-awaited boxing debut at Social Knockout 3 in Dubai on Saturday night.

The 20-year-old Rogic faced the Uzbekistan star in a four-round exhibition bout.
But Boykobilov was in a better position by majority, but the judges declared the match a draw.
Shortly after the result was announced, Roglic came on the mic and expressed his anger at his opponent’s behavior during the fight.
He said: “He punched me in the back of the head and he thinks he won? No, no.”
“Also I need six rounds, why do they make it three rounds?”
When asked if he wanted a rematch, Roglic again grabbed the mic and yelled, “He has to pay me, because I’m making him famous.”
“He has to pay me and then I will do it. I don’t want to do it without him paying me.”
“He has to pay me to make him famous because I’m bigger than him.”

Boykobilov then arrived and said through his translator, “I will fight again to take revenge.”
“I guess my punches were stronger, because he’s dizzy now.”
Roglic had hoped a win over Boykobilov would pave the way for a clash with his longtime rival Hasbulla, with whom he has had a bitter rivalry over the past few years.
