Maharashtra Kesari 2025:  A brawl broke out during the Maharashtra Kesari 2025 competition after Shivraj Rakshe lost to Pruthviraj Mohol on Sunday, February 2, 2025. The match was held between Nanded's Shivraj Rakshe and Pune’s Pruthviraj Mohol. A video showed Raksha grabbing the referee’s collar and kicking him.

 

Mohol took just a few moments to overpower Rakshe, but he refused to accept the loss. Rakshe opposed the referee's decision and sent his associates to speak with the officials. A verbal altercation followed between the referee and Rakshe's team. He then joined the confrontation and, unable to control his anger, grabbed the referee's collar and kicked him. Rakshe denied the loss, claiming he had not been pinned. "I had not backed down," Rakshe said, denying the defeat.

All eyes are now on the Maharashtra Wrestling Federation to decide on the next course of action regarding the incident.

Meanwhile, Mahendra Gaikwad of Solapur was set to face Sakeet Yadav of Parbhani. Gaikwad emerged victorious in that match. Following this, the final for the Maharashtra Kesari title took place between Mahendra Gaikwad and Pruthviraj Mohol.
