On February 16, 2026, a tense moment between KSI and Stable Ronaldo caught viewers off guard during a charity padel tournament in London. While playing in a competitive match, KSI openly told Stable Ronaldo to stop talking to him after repeated interruptions from the sidelines. The exchange happened live on Twitch and quickly spread across X the next day. The event was organized to support M7 Education, but the focus soon shifted from charity to the heated courtside moment.
Clips from the livestream began circulating on February 17, after X user @ClippedHubb shared the confrontation. In the video, KSI can be heard saying, “Do not talk to me when I am playing, bro. Do not disturb me. You are putting me off my game.” Stable Ronaldo replied, “I was rooting for you.” KSI answered, “I do not care. It is annoying me.” The short exchange sparked debate online, with some fans saying KSI was right to demand focus, while others felt Ronaldo was only supporting him.
KSI and Stable Ronaldo clash during London Padel Tournament livestream as tension builds during match
The match took place in London, where KSI teamed up with Callux. They reached the final but lost to W2S and Theo Baker. Even though it was a charity tournament, both sides were clearly playing to win.
From the start of the stream, Stable Ronaldo stayed close to the court. He kept praising KSI loudly and trying to interact with him between points. At first, KSI seemed to ignore the comments. But as the match became tighter, his focus became more intense.
Viewers watching the Twitch broadcast noticed the shift in his body language. He stopped smiling. He avoided eye contact. Then came the direct warning. The way he said it made it clear he wanted complete silence while competing.
After the clip went viral, fans flooded social media with mixed reactions. Some said competitive players often need quiet to stay locked in. Others felt the situation could have been handled differently. Still, neither KSI nor Stable Ronaldo released a formal statement after the clip spread.
Just days later, Stable Ronaldo faced another tense moment during a different livestream. He attended an Arsenal vs Wolves match at Emirates Stadium. During that stream, he and Marlon appeared uneasy after hearing that some Wolves supporters were upset about their celebrations.
In a clip shared on February 18 by X user @ryan, Marlon said, “I have heard our faces are everywhere on social media.” Stable Ronaldo added, “Yes, I heard that. Wolves fans want to hurt us.” Both later described the atmosphere as intense.
At the same time, Stable Ronaldo has also been involved in an online dispute with Ed Craven, who reportedly accused him of inflating viewer numbers during criticism of Twitch’s revenue system changes.
