The First Direct Arena in Leeds, England, witnessed a night charged with excitement during KSI‘s Misfits Boxing 12 event. Though KSI did not fight himself, the event was surprisingly impressive. The spotlight was firmly on Tristan Hamm, a Canadian Travel vlogger who marked his debut, a moment destined for influencer boxing history. Facing off against him was Rodney Petersen, also humorously known as ‘Not Logan Paul’. Sadly for Petersen, things did not go his way from the get-go.

The fight took an unexpected turn in the very first round, as the boxing ring came alive with Hamm’s remarkable display of skills. The fight happened in the main card of the Luis Pineda vs. Ed Matthews Misfits event. However, it was still surprising to see Hamm dominating his opponent in the very first boxing fight of his life.

The culmination came swiftly, as Hamm secured a powerful knockout, sending Peterson to the canvas just 1 minute and 39 seconds into the match. The referee declared Hamm the victor, concluding a remarkable debut marked by skillful prowess and a rapid, decisive triumph that confirmed his future in the YouTube boxing arena.

Fans raise alarm over the ‘mismatch’

The clip of the knockout was uploaded by the official account of Misfits Boxing, and the fans did not hold back from raising the alarm over the knockout as well as the referee’s poor decision. One of the fans stated that the fight should have stopped way earlier, and it was quite dreadful to see it going longer.

Another fan talked about how it’s quite embarrassing for Rodney Peterson, who gained his audience by simply being a Logan Paul-lookalike and getting knocked out so easily.

One fan stated that the referee should’ve started the count quicker, and shouldn’t have let the fight go on so long, as it was dangerous.

A fan pointed out that it was a total mismatch, and he also slammed Peterson for coming to a boxing fight with long hair.

An X user mentioned the safety concerns involved in the event and cautioned Misfits Boxing to look out for the safety of their fighters.
