Ramen Rumble to Void Deck Vendetta: Kurt Tay’s Latest Clash With the Law
It’s been a wild ride for security guard & internet star Kurt Tay. The 40‑year‑old, flaunting a self‑declared “wrestling champion” title, got into a spaghetti‑sauce controversy last October over a bowl of ramen, only to find himself in a new kitchen of trouble—this time with the police.
What Went Down at Woodlands Police HQ
- On Wednesday, July 6th, Tay was summoned to the Woodlands Police Division Headquarters after a video of a scuffle between him and Loh Jia Hung at a mall void deck went viral.
- Tay says Loh kept “taunting” him, throwing the most serious “fight challenge” at the dude.
- He had originally uploaded the clip on his YouTube channel on Tuesday, June 5th, but pulled it at police request.
- Even after that, netizens and Instagram users kept the footage alive—re‑uploaded, reposted, and shared.
“The Investigation Officer (IO) made it clear I wasn’t supposed to be sparring on the void deck,” Tay told AsiaOne. “Even the supposed ‘consent form’ from Loh was more like a fancy napkin and didn’t legitimize the fight.”
The Controversial Consent (or Rather, Indemnity) Form
Tay was handed a sheet that’s essentially a ticket to ride out of legal responsibility. The form, signed by both parties, waives his right to sue if he gets injured in the brawl. Think of it as a “Don’t sue squabble” agreement—just not the legal kind of contract.
Check out the video that sparked the whole drama (you won’t find a “code block” here, just the popcorn‑like clips):
Bottom Line
What started as a hot‑pot showdown of ramen escalated into a hall‑way headline for our “wrestling champion.” Tay’s latest brush with the law is a reminder that even the internet’s biggest “fight club” stars can get a police ticket when they cross the line. It’s a story of man vs. man, hand‑to‑hand, and hand‑to‑police.
The Yishun Street 21 Showdown: A Wild Face‑Off Between a 19‑Year‑Old and a 40‑Year‑Old
When the night hit Yishun at 7 pm on July 5, the locals got a surprise performance that would make any sports bar blush. Two men—one 19, the other 40—got into a brawl that the police later confirmed was a high‑octane, self‑imposed gladiator match.
Who’s Who?
- Loh (19) — the self‑proclaimed “wrestling champion” who thinks he can “beat five men.”
- Kurt Tay (40) — the “underdog” who took on Loh’s claimed best.
How It All Began
Loh, flaunting his confidence on Instagram, slipped a screenshot showing his chat with Tay and explained why he wanted to throw his butt against the so‑called champion:
“Calling everyone who does combat sports ‘good’ is a mockery. I’m not a pro, but I can give Kurt a run for his money. It’s all about fun while I’m still young!”
Tay, not ready to “lose face,” questionably accepted the challenge, despite having no experience in martial arts.
From the MRT to the HDB Block
At about 6 pm, the two met at Yishun MRT. They whacked off to a nearby HDB block where the real action unfolded. A short clip on YouTube later captured the slap‑stick spectacle: Tay braced for a wrestling move, but Loh simply shoved him to the floor. Loh retaliated with a few solid blows, causing a cascade of injuries.
The Damage Report
- My lip was bleeding.
- My finger was swollen.
- Bruises on left elbow and stomach.
While Tay shared his woes, he noted that Loh didn’t use “full force.” He was more about humiliation than harming.
After the Show
The police snagged both participants, and their counsel is ongoing. Loh declined to comment, but the incident has already made waves. Meanwhile, people could still read news about Kurt Tay’s ambition to net over $10k a month with the PAP.
So next time you think your Saturday might be dull, remember the Yishun fight: two amateurs, a dream, and a handful of bruises—proof that Singapore streets can still deliver the drama. Feel free to share your own “fun” stories, but keep it safe and respectful.
