A kickboxer with an SS tattoo made a Nazi salute after defeating a Jewish opponent, WESH2 reported.
The hateful act was done by Paul Miller, who goes by the name “GypsyCrusader," following his match against Ben Azoulay in Florida. Azoulay had draped himself in an Israeli flag as he headed toward the ring, while a Nazi flag was unveiled in the crowd and multiple Miller supporters made Nazi salutes.
Multiple fights broke out in the audience as a result of the Nazi flag and salutes.
Miller was given a narrow split-decision victory, after which he attacked his opponent's ethnicity in a screed to the audience, saying, “He’s not a tough guy. He’s not some alpha male. He’s a short little f-ing Jew prick."
He also made two separate Nazi salutes toward the audience.
Following the incident, Azoulay said he would “take down every Antisemite" and said that Miller “got kicked in the nuts too, so no Nazi babies for him."
Miller is a convicted felon who was arrested after an FBI raid on his home. He was released from prison in 2023.
Miller's actions were condemned by local politicians. Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer said: “A symbol of hate was brought to our city this weekend. But hate, fear, and division will never be welcome here."
Shalom Orlando CEO Marni Mandell told WESH2 that Miller's display left her “completely disgusted and nauseated" and warned that society "Cannot let antisemitism fester."
