Popular British YouTuber, AnEson Gib, took on Austin McBroom in the main event with this bout being a professional fight, contested at 180lbs.

Gib and McBroom would go on to produce an entertaining fight, with a total of five knockdowns being scored before the fight would eventually be stopped in the fourth round.
Gib would survive an early knockdown and would ultimately prove too much for McBroom, knocking down the American four times over rounds three and four. The final knockdown, late in the fourth round, would be the last. Gib would land a thudding right hand which would drop McBroom, with the referee immediately waiving it on.
Nick Young, a former Los Angeles Laker would take on influencer iMinikon. The bout displayed some questionable boxing skills and ugly and the ending would be no different with it ending in a no-decision when Young would fall through the ropes.
