Kingpyn Boxing have announced British Tik Tok star Ed Matthews will face controversial rapper Blueface in a 'wildcard fight' on their upcoming tournament opener in London.
The event, set for April 22, will see Blueface make his return to the ring for the first time since 2021, when he defeated Kane Trujillo in his debut on a Bare Knuckle FC card in which celebrities competed in gloved white collar bouts on the undercard. He has had two other ring returns cancelled due to controversies outside of the ring.
But with less than two weeks until the show, it's likely that the rapper will be able to compete against Matthews, who is no stranger to negative attention in his own right. Both men have boxed just once, with the Brit knocking out 52-year-old Simple Simon last summer on Kingpyn's debut.
