The twentieth edition of the auditions for the BreakingDown martial arts event, held on the 27th, recorded a serious incident that resulted in the recordings for the YouTube channel being stopped. Durante the selection process in Fukuoka’s city, the participant Junshi Urita suddenly head-butted Satoru, generating a beginning of commotion in the place. The physical attack occurred unexpectedly, forcing the production team to intervene immediately to contain those involved and prevent an escalation of violence in the studio.
The main event of BreakingDown, which brings together former gang leaders and amateur fighters from the Kanto region, is scheduled for June 14th. The organization planned to use the auditions to define the main card clashes. The incident between Junshi Urita and Satoru changed the filming schedule, as the technical team had to temporarily suspend activities to ensure the safety of other participants and staff members present in the arena.
