Poncho de Nigris, a well-known figure in Mexican entertainment, was involved in a physical confrontation with reporter Gabo Cuevas during a live segment of the show 'Dulce y Picosito'. The incident took place on February 10, just before the press conference for the upcoming Ring Royale event and escalated quickly when De Nigris confronted Cuevas over remarks he perceived as offensive regarding his children, which were made during the coverage.

As the tension mounted, Poncho de Nigris expressed his displeasure by confronting Cuevas directly in front of the cameras, culminating in an aggressive act where he not only approached the journalist but also physically assaulted him and destroyed his equipment. This incident has raised eyebrows in the entertainment community and sparked discussions surrounding the treatment of journalists, especially during live coverage where emotions can run high, and the actions of public figures can be scrutinized.

The altercation occurs against the backdrop of the forthcoming Ring Royale event scheduled for March 15 in Monterrey, further complicating the situation as it could impact public perception of the event and its participants. The clash between a public figure and a journalist highlights ongoing issues regarding press freedom and celebrity culture in Mexico, raising questions about accountability and the responsibilities of both parties during press events.
