Details on this one?

In a nutshell:
English Grand Prix, Nottingham, 1990.
Promoter was John Martin.
Samir was unhappy with his placings and started kicking chairs.
John asked him to stop.
Samir punched him.
Selwyn Cottrell carried Samir off - Selwyn was not someone to mess with :-)
Samir was suspended for the rest of the tour.

Maybe Onlyme can chime in here....

but I think Selwyn was in the movie Over the Top with Sly.

He was an extra in the backgrounds as a competitor.

Samir was suspended for the rest of the tour.

But he still turned up the following night for the autograph session at the Weider Gym,and John let him have a table.I sat at the next table with Shawn Davis and we watched Samir slide his hand up the skirt of the girlfriend of a guy he was talking to at his table.

OMG :o Is this really true? If so, that is pretty damn sad   :'(

I am glad nobody has chimed in with the "ban the guy for life" kind of post.
In fairness to Samir, look at the baseball managers that go off on umps and only get kicked out for the game.
