Toast and Ludwig garner support for Twitch vs YouTube boxing event after Twitter callout YouTube: Toast \/ LudwigAfter witnessing the success of iDubbbz\u2019s Creator Clash, Disguised Toast and Ludwig entertained the idea of hosting a Twitch vs. YouTube boxing event, and it\u2019s gaining traction on social media. Influencer boxing is all the rage these days. It started from humble beginnings as a means to resolve a feud between Logan Paul and KSI in 2018, followed by their rematch in 2019. Since then, it\u2019s evolved into something more. Jake Paul has fought former mixed-martial-arts champions like Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley. Logan Paul went the distance against boxing legend Floyd Mayweather \u2014 something that nobody thought was possible. However, despite how much it\u2019s grown, grassroots influencer boxing is still going strong, as evidenced by the success of YouTube vs. TikTok Battle of the Platforms and now the charitable iDubbbz\u2019s Creator Clash. Bearing that in mind, Disguised Toast and Ludwig Ahgren, two streamers known for their innovation, flirted with the idea of hosting an influencer boxing event of their own \u2014 one that pits Twitch streamers against YouTube streamers. Toast was the one who conceived the idea. \u201cYo Ludwig, boxing event next year? Twitch streamers vs. YouTube streamers,\u201d he said. Watching the action during Creators Clash must have ignited the fire in his belly. Ludwig responded almost immediately. \u201cMake it happen! We\u2019re going to destroy you guys!\u201d he said. He also pitched a fight between Sykkuno, who recently moved from Twitch to YouTube, and Hasan, although it\u2019s a bit of a mismatch. After seeing his name thrown into the hat and trying to imagine himself throwing punches at one of the most laid-back and likable streamers in the world, Hasan commended and said: \u201cI would never be able to punch this man.\u201d Fans also brainstormed other fight card possibilities, including xQc vs. PewDiePie, Pokimane vs. Valkyrae, NICKMERCS vs. TimTheTatman, Dr Disrespect vs. Esfand, and a whole lot more. The possibilities are endless. i would never be able to punch this man https:\/\/t.co\/YTHn6A0XE0 \u2014 hasanabi (@hasanthehun) May 15, 2022 At this stage, it\u2019s still nothing more than a thrilling idea. However, Toast and Ludwig planted the seed, and considering they both have a knack for pushing the envelope in terms of content, it could grow into something more. Influencer boxing has come a long way. However, there\u2019s still something special about seeing your favorite streamers lace up some gloves and duke it out in the squared circle \u2014 especially when it\u2019s for a good cause.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
