The influencer boxing landscape has been revealing promising talent, and following his latest bout, King Kenny is undeniably at the pinnacle.
King Kenny sparred with Brazilian sensation Whindersson Nunes at Saturday’s main event of Kingpyn Boxing, held in Dublin’s 3Arena. The highly-anticipated clash had combat sports enthusiasts buzzing, but instead of an evenly matched fight, King Kenny led a one-sided contest against Nunes, securing unanimous 50-44 scores after five rounds.
Making an entrance with Brazilian colors and tunes from Nunes’ homeland, King Kenny stirred the crowd favoring Nunes. The Brazilian star, escorted to the ring amid considerable acclaim, was greeted with a live rap performance.
From the get-go, Kenny leveraged his reach advantage and deployed an effective jab that injured Nunes’ nose. Despite Nunes’ smile throughout the round, he struggled to retaliate against Kenny’s onslaught.
In round two, Kenny delivered a powerful blow that rocked Nunes before a consequential strike caused a severe fall. Nunes continued to fight with the support of his fans, but Kenny showcased exceptional skill and strategy, effortlessly dominating on both offense and defense. Even as Nunes tried to turn the tide in the third round, Kenny sustained his jabbing strategy with minimal effort.
Kenny was seemingly relaxed throughout the fourth round, successfully landing jabs repeatedly, although Nunes began countering with body shots. However, the momentum was short-lived as the 26-year-old English YouTube sensation stifled Nunes’ progress. This pattern persisted into the final round, where Kenny played with his opponent until the final bell rang.
With a score of 50-44 in his favor, King Kenny clinches a spot in the tournament finals.
In the penultimate event, AnEsonGib presented a well-rounded performance over five rounds in the semifinal against Jarvis. Despite Jarvis being a fan favorite among the influencer boxing crowd, Gib set a rapid pace and high volume, wearing down Jarvis and claiming a unanimous decision victory. This win paves the way for the tournament finale against King Kenny.
