The exhibition fights are a recent trend in the sport of boxing and celebrities across various verticals are diving in for this opportunity. That said, on June 12, 2021, Social Gloves came out with a boxing event between YouTubers and TIK Tokers, in which the alleged owner of Social Gloves, Austin McBroom took part.
However, a few days after the event, it was reported that Social Gloves had gone bankrupt. Furthermore, it didn’t pay any of the celebrities for its June 12 event. As this story did rounds on social media, everyone was keen to hear something from Social Gloves’ management side. Now, McBroom came out and commented on the same.
In a conversation with The Hollywood Fix, he said, “You got social gloves which is the promotion company, that put together the event right, that organizes the fights, that puts together the event, LiveXLive is a live stream partner. In order for an event to take place, you need a live stream partner. Everyone thinks Social gloves just did everything, no.”
