Adin Ross boxing event under fire after brutal knockout leaves fans concerned
Kick: AdinRossA boxing competition organized by top streamer Adin Ross drew criticism after some brutal knockouts and behavior from the competitors.
The top Kick streamer has been leaning more and more into sports content, and his latest project, a surprise boxing event that featured some of the other big names on Kick and other streaming platforms, was rewarded with thousands of viewers.
However, the event also drew fire from viewers concerned for the health and safety protocols, as well as how the boxers were treating each other.
Adin Ross hosts Kick streamer boxing event
Twitch streamer Jaydvn was facing down against fellow influencer Melt when he KO-ed him with a powerful hook. However, what really stood out to viewers was the fact that the influencer went in for another hit when Melt was down.
One viewer noted: “That dude needs to go to the doctor ASAP. The body went rigid, he hit his head when falling to the ground, and the other guy hit him again when he was on the ground. Definitely a chance of lasting damage there.”
Another commenter noted the lack of headgear for the competitors, as well and the lack of medical professionals on standby at the event.
The event did not end up featuring Dillon Danis despite him offering to spar against Jake Paul’s MMA opponent on Adin’s Kick stream.
Adin Ross has maintained his position as one of the top streamers on Kick by connecting with big names and other creators- he even offered Eminem a million dollars to appear on his stream.
