WATCH: Tough online, coward in person — MMA fighter Natan Levy calls out ‘coward’ jihadi boxer for targeting civilians

Levy, known for calling out antisemitism both inside and outside the cage, stood in the same park and issued a direct challenge.

MMA fighter Natan Levy flew to New York City to confront YouTuber and self-proclaimed boxer Adam Saleh, who was recently caught on video harassing a Jewish man in Washington Square Park while backed by a gang chanting “Free Palestine.”

Saleh, wearing boxing gloves, chased the Jewish man, one of several incidents in which he’s been seen targeting elderly patrons in kosher restaurants and civilians who pose no threat.

Levy, known for calling out antisemitism both inside and outside the cage, stood in the same park and issued a direct challenge:

“Saleh, I’m in your city, man. I’m in New York at the park, but you’re nowhere to be found. I called you out, but no response. You were ‘brave’ when it was five on one, but now it’s just one on one—man to man. Let me know when we can meet and settle this.”

This isn’t the first time Levy has stepped up in defense of the Jewish community. In January 2025, he publicly responded after fellow UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell made antisemitic comments and praised Adolf Hitler on his podcast.

Levy offered to meet with Mitchell personally to educate him about Jewish history and culture, saying, “You have questions? I have answers.”

As of now, Saleh has not responded to Levy’s latest challenge. But for many, the message is clear: When faced with a real fight, the so-called tough guy disappears.
