There's different versions out there depending who spoke to whom but given there weren't charges against him it's likely to be 50-50. You know, though, people make noise and people complain all the time, it doesn't need to end up in a scrap. My impression of him is that he's pretty aggressive and I imagine if he comes up against someone similar it can escalate. Probably doesn't help that he's quite handy with his fists so isn't likely to be scared and back down or try to make peace like a lot of people would.
That said, I bumped into him and Steve Chainel just after he won the purple(?) jersey in the Giro and he seemed like a nice enough guy and well liked at the bar we were at.

Based on two things presumably? One, that he is a sprinter and, by definition, has to be aggressive in the fighting for position that comes with bunch sprinting and, two, the fact that he boxes.
When was the last time you read an article on him that didn’t mention boxing? It’s the standard press trope when reporting on him.

Everyone cites that incident as proof of Bouhanni’s (bad) character. Do you know the details? He’d gone to complain to some other guests about the noise they were making late at night, and they attacked him. I assume they thought a little cyclist was an easy target, but imagine they quickly discovered they’d picked on the wrong guy.
