Undefeated French boxer Sabri Sediri was 15 seconds from winning another fight, but ended up getting knocked out after taunting his opponent Sam Maxwell. Karma, she is a bitch.
Fighting for the vacant World Boxing Organisation European Super Lightweight Title, Sediri and Maxwell came into the bout with identical 10-0 professional boxing records.
However, it was Sediri who had the upper hand as the fight went into the 10th and final round, having scored a couple of knockdowns earlier in the fight. So he began doing a little showboating, dancing and taunting the seemingly exhausted Maxwell.
Big mistake.
โI knew the right hand was waking,โ Maxwell told BT Sport Boxing. โWe just knew it in our corner. I just let it go, I just believed in it.
โI think he switched off a little bit and I just took my chance. The start of the fight threw me completely off. I felt I was edging back into it [fight] and I was waiting for one last big round, which I got.โ
Maxwell also posted my new favorite hashtag on Twitter after the fight: “#chatshitgetsammed.”
Yes, Mr. Maxwell, we are very entertained.
God love all the British slang this knockout spawned.
Have that, you gobshite

I have no idea what any of them are saying, but I am going to start using all of these words and phrases in conversations now.
