Deen left the ring after beating MrTikTokUK, and a later face-off with Robinson ended in a brawl.
An influencer boxing card at The Hub in Kilkenny, Ireland, ended early after Mo Deen and Tommy Robinson clashed during an in-ring face-off, the Daily Express reported. The show was scheduled to be headlined by rappers Russ Millions and Kirky.
Deen had already fought. He dropped fellow influencer MrTikTokUK three times to win by stoppage on the undercard. After the bout, Deen climbed out of the ring and moved towards Robinson, the former English Defence League leader, who was at ringside.
The organisers went ahead with a face-off despite that first confrontation. Harrison Sullivan, the influencer known as HSTikkyTokky, tried to bring the pair together in the ring. The two became involved in a physical confrontation, and the ensuing disturbance brought the card to an early end.
Mo Deen Says He Was Following a Script
Deen said afterwards that he believed he was taking part in a planned segment. In remarks quoted by the Express, he said: “I just followed the script that they told me they agreed with.”
Deen also claimed Robinson had agreed to the segment and said he had received threats afterwards. Those were Deen’s claims; the report did not independently establish what either man had agreed to before the face-off.
The face-off was intended to drum up interest in a possible fight. No bout between Deen and Robinson was announced at the event.
