Misfits Boxing returns to DAZN this Saturday and Tom Zanetti and Jayden King were not willing to wait until then.
After the roaring success that was KSI’s 2 Fights 1 Night in August, Misfits Boxing, which specialises in influencer boxing, is back for its second UK instalment in Sheffield this Saturday, headlined by Jay Swingler vs Cherdleys. The undercard sees outspoken music producer Tom Zanetti step between the ropes for the first time, as he faces YouTuber Jayden King.
In a press conference on fight week, Zanetti and King traded vicious verbals. Zanetti would fire water at King from a water pistol, which led to a mass brawl breaking out. The fighters returned to their seats, but it was not over. Zanetti claimed that King had ‘zero intelligence’ before revealing that King allegedly messaged his son claiming he was ‘going to punch my son’s head in’ which led to King shouting “Your son’s a d**khead!” King then urged Zanetti to do something about it as he stood up to entice Zanetti in for a fight.
