YouTube star King Kenny suffered a secret illness days out from his fight with Ashley Tebi from Rak-Su that may have played a part in costing him the bout.
The Beta Squad influencer was a heavy favourite before facing X-Factor winner Tebi, but struggled to let his hands go as he slumped to a split decision loss. He had previously been defeated by Faze Temperrr in March of last year by way of a controversial re-score, but his loss to the singer was his first time not to have his hand raised on the night in four fights.
And he has left no time to wallow in defeat, opting to step into the Kingpyn Boxing 'High Stakes' tournament, where he will fight three times on April 22, June 2 and August 5 in an effort to win the inaugural men's competition. He faces 'MyMateNate', an influencer known for his work in Thailand who has fought three times to date.
