Celebrity boxing is a new genre within the sport of boxing. Influencers are not just expected to compete against other influencers but also entertain the fans before, during, and after the fight. However, the fans are not pleased with how Deji is promoting his next fight. The YouTuber-cum-boxer will fight Swarmz on the undercard of Misfits 007 which will take place on May 13th.

Swarmz is a British singer, rapper, and entertainer. He fought and got defeated by his older brother, KSI. He will be looking to make amends after that loss by beating Deji. However, ahead of the fight, fans complained that Deji has gotten boring.
