British YouTuber Jay Swingler and Nicholai “NichLmao” Perrett square off in Telford, England on DAZN. The event was initially scheduled to be on February 25th but was postponed to March 4.
After a four-year layoff, Swingler made his successful comeback to the ring in October 2022 when he brutally knocked out American comedian Cherdleys in a matter of seconds. He quickly turns around to meet YouTube star Perrett, who is affiliated with Keemstar and Yusef Erakat's Happy Punch Promotions and goes by the nickname NichLmao.
With more than 20.9 million subscribers, Perret enjoys a tremendous amount of popularity on YouTube. Additionally, he has more than 11 million TikTok followers. “Headlining a Misfits event is so surreal to me,” said NichLmao. “I was 16 and watched a few YouTube fights and now I’m headlining an event against Jay Swingler. It is such a special and amazing opportunity that I am so grateful to Misfits.”
King Kenny, Ashley Tebi, Deen The Great, Walid Sharks, Astrid Wett, N&A Productions, AJ Bunker, Ginty, and Halal Ham will all make their comebacks on the undercard. Event also features the first-ever women's title bout in Misfits as well as a “tag team” boxing contest.
