Last week, Sneako called out Sean Strickland for sparring. The ‘Tarzan’ duly obliged, and the duo boxed in a cage. Only, the internet personality ended up with an injured nose. Ideally, it should have served as a lesson to anyone thinking about undertaking such an adventure. But as it happens more often than not, there will always be someone willing to bite the bullet.

It appears another social media star believes that he can stand up to the ‘Tarzan’ in boxing. His call-out follows the slanging match between Sean Strickland and Jake Paul. The latter, seemingly upset with the mixed martial artist for fighting a man with hardly any experience in fighting, reportedly offered $1 million for a fight. However, the new challenger is unlike any other YouTuber or TikToker Sean Strickland would have come across.

Bryce Hall: The Beginning and Pursuit of Boxing Glory

Bryce Hall exudes the confidence that saw him take a dig at Sean Strickland early in the morning today. That’s why he wrote, “Sean CTE Strickland is mad that I haven’t sparred him in boxing yet. TBH, yes, you would hurt me if we were doing MMA (which we’re not), but if we only use our hands, there’s nothing that’s impressive about you. I’m all in,” as their verbal spat progressed.

Bryce Michael Hall was born in Maryland’s Ellicott City on August 14, 1999. The 24-year-old began his internet journey fairly young, at age 15. From Vine and Musical.ly, he eventually moved to YouTube, establishing a channel in 2015. Three years later, he left Maryland and relocated to Los Angeles. Two years later, in January 2020, he moved to Sway House, along with a few other social media personalities.

Primarily creating content for TikTok, the group’s journey didn’t last long, as they had to shut down the shop the following year. Outside of his net-based ventures, Hall has been busy trying his luck in the world of acting.

On June 12, 2021, Bryce Hall fought his first boxing match against fellow YouTuber Austin McBroom. Unfortunately, he lost the exhibition bout via technical knockout. It took him two years to make a return. But instead of the standard with-gloves boxing, he took the bare-knuckle route and stopped Gee Perez in the second round on August 11 last year. Thus, overall, his record stands at a single victory against one loss.

Incidentally, for all his calling out, Bryce Hall shares one thing in common with Sean Strickland. Both seem to share a sort of mutual hostility toward Jake Paul.

The Ocean of Foes

The ‘Tarzan’s dispute may be relatively new. However, Hall and Paul’s rivalry goes back years. It was around the time when ‘The Problem Child’ had started building a name for himself in the ring that Hall entered the scene. As a result, many started comparing the two.

Incidentally, Bryce Hall even tried calling out Jake Paul for a bout. However, the Ohioan, who had already been making big strides in the sport, plainly ignored it. Despite the fact that he had visited Logan Paul‘s podcast ‘Impaulsive’ once, Hall once reportedly took both the brothers’ names when asked to name the ‘two-faced influencers’ during a Q&A session. A few months ago, he even claimed that he could beat any of the influencer boxers, from Paul and KSI to Austin McBroom, in a bare-knuckle fight.

He said, “Telling you, I would f*ck up KSI, I would f*ck up Austin McBroom, I’d f*ck up Deji, I’d f*ck up like basically any influencer within 20–30 lbs. of me. In bare knuckle 100%. Boxing too.” When asked about the Paul brothers, he confirmed, “Jake Paul and Logan Paul, yeah.

Additionally, there seems to be a new subplot in the story. Ryan Garcia took potshots at the social media star for some reason that he has yet to settle with his father. Reportedly, Garcia Senior had trained Bryce Hall back in 2021 when he squared up against McBroom. However, the latter, along with other influencers, failed to pay the requisite fee. ‘KingRy’ tweeted, “F*ck you, you owe my dad money. We have been trying to serve you wassup. Stop dodging foreeal.
