Several online media outlets have reported on a description of boxer Haxhi Krasniqi's relationship with another former boxer, his fellow countryman Luan Krasniqi. However, in many of the media outlets, the headline "Haxhi and Luan Krasniqi do not speak to each other: I asked him for help, he did not have time to deal with me" of the article regarding this statement by boxer Haxhi Krasniqi did not match the content.
Haxhi Krasniqi, during a long interview on the show "Rubikon" on Klan Kosova (October 16), recounting his career until he was declared world champion, also recounted his experience with Luan Krasniqi. He said that at the beginning of his career as a boxer he had asked Luan Krasniqi for help, but that he had not responded, alluding to his being busy with his career. Consequently, this statement by Haxhi also contradicts the claims of some media outlets that present the relationship between him and Luan Krasniqi as strained.

But Haxhiu never said during this interview that he has a bad relationship with Luani or that he "doesn't talk to him," thus denying the claims presented in the headlines of these articles:
"We didn't have any contact or cooperation with Luani. I asked him for help a little at first, but I saw that he was very busy."
The excerpt from Haxhi Krasniqi's interview in Klan Kosova, (minute 40:40):
There were allegations a few days ago from some media outlets with dubious status that the relationship between these two boxers was not good. In the headlines of the articles published by these media outlets, it was allegedly written that Luan Krasniqi has favored Haxhi Krasniqi's opponent in the match for the world champion title.
Analyze:
Based on the analysis of the facts, it is noted that the articles published by the aforementioned media have a title that does not exactly correspond to the statement of the boxer Haxhi Krasniqi. Also, Haxhi's statement about Luan Krasniqi found in the content of these articles is real compared to the title. This action, based on the analysis, shows that these media wanted to set the title as attractive as possible for readers, knowing that the relationship between these two boxers, provokes reactions in the general public. For this reason, hibrid.info categorizes these publications by the media as "Clickbait".
Reasoning:
Clickbait – are those texts and articles that aim to attract the attention of the reader or even the consumer with a sensational title promising content that does not actually exist and are created primarily out of financial interest, that is, due to increased readability.
