Let's Watch A Russian Oligarch Preemptively Attack A Fellow Tycoon On A Talk Show
Per The Telegraph, "billionaire Russian oligarch Alexander Lebedev has physically attacked a fellow tycoon on national TV after the other man told him he would like to "punch someone's lights out."
By all means, go on, Telegraph.
Mr Lebedev, who owns The Independent and The London Evening Standard, said he felt the threat was directed at him and that he was left with no choice but to strike first, delivering two swift right hooks to fellow Russian tycoon Sergei Polonsky knocking him backwards off his chair and off the studio podium.
"I neutralised him," the 51-year-old tycoon said. ...
The other tycoon involved, fallen property mogul Sergei Polonsky, is said to be weighing legal action. Once he had picked himself up off the floor, he simply said: "I am in shock."
