Misfits Boxing's Prime Card Takes a Hit
Misfits Boxing's highly anticipated Prime card has suffered a significant setback just days before the event. One of the fighters scheduled to compete, YouTuber Ryan Taylor, has been reportedly "arrested," leading to the cancellation of his rematch with rapper Swarmz.
Rematch Off the Table
Ryan Taylor and Swarmz were set to face off in a rematch on Saturday night, following Taylor's defeat in the first round back in January. However, Happy Punch Promotions, the event's organizers, have confirmed that the fight will no longer take place due to Taylor's arrest.
Misfits Boxing Seeks Last-Minute Replacement
Misfits Boxing, co-owned by KSI, is now scrambling to find a substitute fighter to salvage the event. The promotion has yet to provide an official reason for Taylor's arrest.
Fans React to the Cancellation
The cancellation of the Taylor vs. Swarmz fight has left fans of the influencer boxing scene shocked and disappointed. Many have taken to social media to express their frustration and speculation about the reason behind Taylor's arrest.
Previous Showdown and Redemption
Taylor and Swarmz previously faced each other in January on the undercard of KSI's fight with FaZe Temperrr. Swarmz emerged victorious with a first-round TKO, stopping the fight due to severe swelling around Taylor's right eye. Swarmz expressed his satisfaction with the win, seeking redemption after his previous loss to KSI.
Upcoming Main Event
The headline fight for Misfits Prime at the Manchester Arena is KSI vs. Tommy Fury. This highly anticipated clash will surely be a highlight of the event. Additionally, Logan Paul will be making his return to the ring in a grudge match against jiu-jitsu champion-turned-MMA star Dillon Danis.
