You need to learn to read. It did not say that they beat him up, only that Boztepe cried and said he only claims to be able to beat everyone in order to make money.

Not that I care either way.

All right Thai Bri, it's written in fact:
"he was on his knees crying"

well... to be on one's knees crying after receiving the visit of two fighters... suggests that some bombs have been thrown
Anyway, I was just curious, it's not that important...

(by the way...)

BTW, here is an article that clarifies the incident:

In the Bluming article (realfighting issue #2) Jon Bluming stated that some of his students went to visit Mr. Boztepe at a seminar, officially challenged him and beat him. According to Emin, this is not correct. Several big Dutch guys did crash one of Mr. Boztepe's seminars in Holland, and he offered to fight them one by one. They refused, but apologized after everything was sorted out. It was found that this was the result of a misunderstanding concerning something previously written by Frank Schafer, the EWTO representative for Holland. Eighty seminar participants witnessed the incident
