Deji Olatunji was stopped for a second time in as many fights as he took on Vinnie Hacker at a YouTube vs TikTok boxing event in Miami.
Deji, who was knocked out by Jake Paul the last time he stepped through ropes, was hoping that his bout with Vinnie Hacker, who has 7.7M followers on TikTok, would be an opportunity for redemption.
Unfortunately for the UK YouTuber, whose brother is KSI, he became visibly gassed out after the first two rounds of the contest, eventually succumbing to Hacker after being pushed up against the ropes.
Here’s the moment that the TikTok star sealed it.

Of course, any man or woman who steps into a boxing ring deserves a great deal of respect – especially while not being a professional fighter and not wearing headgear.
Deji was the favourite for this fight, but just like in his contest with Jake Paul, his fitness has let him down. Here’s what he had to say on Twitter after suffering another disappointing defeat.
I’m sorry, I am a failure

I will bounce back. My fitness let me down again. I will take a break and bounce back. Sorry to those who I let down. 📸: @dounjax https://t.co/ZXAaF5Q3E6
