In what could be termed the “Brexit War”, Nigel Farage challenged Prime Minister Boris Johnson to enter the ring and hold a boxing match.
After quitting the fight at London’s O2 Arena after an amateur boxing match on YouTube sponsored by Gettr on Saturday, Nigel Farage, when asked if he was ready to fight Prime Minister Boris Johnson in the ring, said, “Oh, I just hold him… Boris. , if you’re listening now, come on.
Speaking on his TikTok account on Tuesday, Mr Brexit added: “Okay, the moment? Or Boris, do you agree?
While the pair previously campaigned for the same cause in the 2016 EU referendum – albeit for separate campaigning groups – Mr Farage is one of the leading critics of the Johnson administration’s failure to fully implement Brexit, withdrawing control of national borders, and Boris. On topics like climate change, turn left.
Showing up in the boxing gym has become a political metaphor in Britain, with politicians frequently coming to the gym for photo shoots. Indeed, Mr. Farage and the prime minister have worn gloves many times throughout their political careers.

In a match at O2, British YouTuber KSI, whose real name is Olahide Olayinka Williams Olatunji, defeated two rivals British rapper Swarmz and Mexican boxer Luis Alcaraz Pineda in one night. This is the first time KSI has stepped into the public eye after beating YouTuber Logan Paul on points three years ago.
In the bottom card match, comedian Sam Hyde took on musician IAmThmpsn, TikToker Salt Papi took on YouTuber Andy Warsky, boxer DeenTheGreat YouTuber Evil Hero and YouTuber FaZe Sensei took on musician King Kenny.

“I’ve talked to a lot of young people out there, they say it’s grassroots boxing, and even though professional boxing federations are abandoning it, something good is going on here,” Farage said.
He also commented that although YouTubers may be overlooked by many in Westminster politics, “influencers like KSI, who are followed by millions, really represent great role models for our youth.”
The event was promoted by the alternative Twitter Gettr, and this week Mr. Farage follows boxer Andrew Tate after a series of bans from Big Tech platforms.
It’s time to take on the big tech giants in Silicon Valley.
