Boxing Event Creator Clash Is Officially Cancelled

When Creator Clash launched in 2022, it felt like a new era: YouTubers boxing for charity, selling out arenas, and raising over $1.3M in one night.

Now? Creator Clash 3 was just canceled for good.

The Recap

Creator Clash 1 (2022): 10K+ fans, $1.3M raised for charity.

Creator Clash 2 (2023): More fights, bigger venue…but it lost $250K.

Creator Clash 3 (2025): Switched to for-profit, moved to LA — then drama exploded.

It started when event founder iDubbbz (Ian Jomha) posted a Content Cop on Ethan Klein, then major fighters like Harley Morenstein dropped out, and transparency issues around fighter pay and charity donations arose.

We covered it all last month...and now, it's all over.

Creator Clash 3 Cancelled

On July 7, organizers announced that Creator Clash 3 is off — and the event likely won't return.

The official statement was brief. PPV refunds are going out and all raised funds will still go to charity. But for fighters who trained for months, this was a huge blow.

Fighters Reactions:

Nathan "Dad" Barnatt: "It sucks. I put my heart into this. I got beat hard this year — I [trained] like a professional — and now here I am, screwed."

Sapnap: "I was robbed! I was gonna knock this motherfucker out."

Gingerpale: "It's frustrating to spend so much time getting punched in the head and body over and over with no fight."

Barnatt, who’s fought (and won) in both previous Creator Clash events, said he'll likely fight in a Misfits boxing event later this year.

Our Take:

Creator events are always a gamble.

For every Sidemen Charity Soccer Match — which raised over $6M in 2025 — there’s a TanaCon (shut down on day one due to poor planning and overcrowding) or Social Gloves (Austin McBroom's boxing event where fighters weren’t paid and lawsuits followed).

Creator Clash had the perfect pitch: fun fights for a good cause. But poor leadership, internal drama, and unclear priorities took it down.

This was a rare chance to build something big...and it crumbled.

Still, fighters like Barnatt are moving forward. And maybe the next creator boxing league will learn from the mess left behind.

The Rosetta Stone For Live Streamers

As the #1 Mexican streamer, Quackity knows a thing or two about connecting with fans around the globe.

Now, he's launching a real-time translation tool for streamers called Dababel..and it's gaining traction fast.

From Streamer to Entrepreneur

Streamers could speak in Spanish, for example. But their audience can follow along with live subtitles in their own language.

Real time. No delay.

Think about the impact. Language is no longer a barrier — a stream once limited to one language can now reach a global audience.

“My only objective has always been to change the world,” he said. “This is the biggest project of my career.”

How It Works:

Dababel offers three core modes:

Conversation Mode: Live two-way translation for conversations in different languages.
Universal Mode: Drag and drop real-time subtitles for any livestream, video, or even a classroom lecture.

Play Mode: Record and hear your voice in one of the six languages Dababel supports (English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Japanese, and Korean).

It works across Zoom, Discord, OBS, and more — with planned integrations coming for games like GTA, Minecraft, and Roblox.

All Dababel features do require credits, with plans ranging from $9.99 per week to corporate tiers at $139.99 per week.

Our Take

Streaming is global. But language still divides audiences.

Dababel flips that — letting creators dub their own voice, add real-time subtitles, and connect with fans across borders.

Right now, it supports just six languages. But if it expands and nails OBS integration, this could become a must-have for streamers looking to grow without changing how they work.
