A viral video clip of an MMA star being rejected during a live marriage proposal has taken an unexpected turn, with new information shedding light on the authenticity of the incident.
The incident occurred after Lukas Bukovaz, a martial artist in the Czech organization Clash of the Stars, suffered defeat in a two-on-one bout. Following his loss, Bukovaz got down on one knee in front of a capacity crowd at the Ostravar Arena, only to be rejected by the woman he had proposed to.
“Based on everything that’s happened, I think probably not,” she said into the microphone. “I don’t think so.” The crowd then erupted in boos, with a man at cageside attempting to throw water on the woman.
However, it now appears that the proposal may have been a promotional stunt. The woman in question has since revealed that she and Bukovaz had not been together for several months, and that she has since started a new relationship.

The woman also claimed that Bukovaz had cheated on her with Nikola Lauberova, an adult film performer who was previously scheduled to compete on a Clash of the Stars card. The scorned ex-girlfriend has now reportedly challenged Lauberova to a bout, which is in the works for a future event set for September.
“Unfortunately, he can’t accept that we won’t be after all this. Anyway, he still obviously loves me but I don’t… the end,” the woman wrote on Instagram.
When asked about the incident, the woman stated that she would never go back to Bukovaz after he cheated on her. “There was nothing else I could do, I won’t be with someone who cheated on me. Next time he could do it again,” she said.
The viral clip has received over 10 million views on social media, with the woman expressing her appreciation for the outpouring of support she has received since the incident. However, it seems that the proposal may have been a calculated move to generate excitement and publicity for the upcoming fight between the ex-girlfriend and Lauberova.
