Streamer gets knocked out after threatening to hit ex-UFC fighter

Published:

Streamer and part-time boxer Nurideen Shabazz, better known as Deen the Great, was on the wrong end of a beating when he stepped up to a former UFC fighter.

As Mike Tyson famously said, social media has made people too comfortable with disrespecting others and not getting punched in the face for it. Since that quote, influencers have evolved and have started insulting people to their faces, though the outcome often remains the same.

It has almost become common practice for internet celebrities to get into fights with real fighters, mostly due to those in the streaming world showing a lack of respect for combat sports athletes.

This is exactly what happened when a seemingly overintoxicated Nurideen Shabazz confronted a man at a party hosted by Rampage Jackson. Little did he know, Shabazz had just forced a less-than-respectful conversation with Tiki Ghosn, Jackson’s friend, coach, and fellow UFC alum.

The altercation went exactly as expected. As he’s come to be known, Shabazz likes to play to the cameras and began trying to intimidate Ghosn. After a brief and incredibly hostile conversation between the two, Ghosn ended the talks by landing a heavy elbow that sent Shabazz flying out of the view of the camera.

As Ghosn began walking away, hoping the situation was solved, the streamer got back to his feet and landed some shots of his own. The brawl is eventually brought to an end when Deen the Great is dragged away, with Rampage Jackson stepping in to play peacemaker.

Check out the video below.

Deen the Great is following in the footsteps of Jake Paul and other popular streamers who have ventured into boxing.

The 25-year-old has found success in the ring, winning seven of his eight bouts thus far in his career. Despite showing early promise as an influencer-turned-boxer, the Florida native will have to think twice before picking fights with strangers.
