All right, hey guys, so this is going to be one of the very few unscripted videos i ever do on this channel. But i feel like it's about time that i address a lot of videos that have been going around of me. Boxing michael reeves me losing, and i've noticed that those videos have now received millions of views and uh i've yet to watch that video afterwards, especially, is like when you feel the real injuries and like the real dizziness. Listen for those unaware.

There was a charity boxing match, it was called creator clash and back in november, idubbbz ian approached me and asked if i wanted to participate and fight michael reeves, you know within a few weeks i called him back and i said: hey, you know what i'm in And i called michael right after that - i'm like hey michael, i just i i'd make me feel better be before i like 100, commit to this like. How are you feeling about this? I think just hearing his hesitation as well made me feel comfortable that, like okay, he he's not going to uh. You know just go like haywire or anything like that, but when i started training i think i severely underestimated absolutely everything to do with boxing. That's epically difficult, especially with how nervous you - and i both were.

That is a that's a feat to just agree to this at all. So the day of we all get there a little early and we look around i'm looking around at this huge center of what like 10 000 people are going to be there. I i think at that point i went into this daze where it's like. I knew i had to just do it, but i was so nervous.

I was so scared that by the time i was about to walk out, i it was it's so surreal, but there's this feeling of just like enthusiasm, excitement and calmness, because i was finally gon na get it over with i get there. The bell goes off and i have to say the only thing that went through my mind was. I have to finish this as soon as possible. Everything you learn, i hate to say it goes out the door like once you hear that, like the crowd and the people - and you see the cameras, i i think there's there's nothing that could have fully prepared me for for that during the fight with some lizard Brain, i don't even know what happened that was some lizard brain yeah.

So how about this? I'm gon na watch the video wow it's interesting to see the commentary. My heart is pounding by the way i've not. I know i mentioned it before, but i've been avoiding this video because i did not want to watch it round number one jabs right away from michael reeves, graham as well. I just wanted to be the one to make the first move and throw more punches uh, because i believe the more punches i i threw the the higher the chance i'd land a hit.

You know pressure michael, has great technique and that's something that uh you could tell he crouches down the closer he gets to me, or is i'm not doing that? I should have been doing that it felt completely like i don't remember doing most of that um. It's just yeah, it's crazy to see like what what other people saw, because it was a complete, different thing right hand to the body. Stefan, the crowd is chair. The crowd is just cheering on michael stephanie.

That's interesting. I didn't even remember people uh chanting, michael's name. I it's so weird, but like i did, i don't remember hearing a single thing and i remember the coach saying like you got ta, listen to me, i'm gon na be yelling at you. Just listen to my voice.

It may as well have been silent. I don't remember a single thing: it's not just behind nothing, but nice jobs, michael reeves, and grant acknowledges all three it's so funny watching. This brings like i forgot everything and then, as i'm watching this, these memories are popping into my head and i remember seeing the look on his face. How serious he was and how, like i and michael's funny like he's a light-hearted like humorous charismatic guy, and to see a stone-cold face of him just like angry and just serious.

It scared me because i had never seen him like that yeah. I remember that bell went off and i was so happy that it's like one round is down. You see graham, come in double jab, triple jab his way in. In that right hand, though, and again the counter off of it - and you see right here in the corner - uh michael reese, coach, saying that right, hands landing.

Yes, i was just gon na say: yeah michael has a fantastic right hand. I did not throw my right hand, i kept jabbing to push him back, but i should have followed that up with the right hand, i didn't. Oh, you could literally see his trainer saying jab jab right hook. So what this trainer is doing is watching how i'm fighting and then saying: here's how you could counter that and the one thing my trainer said.

Is you never want to stay too consistent with with your punches, because they'll be able to learn from that and then go around them more volume, but again even landing rate? The harder punches were landed by reeves absolutely round number. Two here we go. This is the one this is the round i lost so uh he's trying to put that pressure and smother. That was it so when that hit, i'd never been hit in my head, like that, ever in my entire life, and that threw i i was not prepared for that.

One uh was the strangest sensation because it just feels like for a split second uh. Everything goes black and then comes right back, and that was something for me that uh i needed probably 20 seconds to recover from that. You know you don't have 20 seconds, but that was a very strange sensation that i've never had. Oh yeah, when michael went in right there and just kind of back and forth, i knew he was gearing up for something and he didn't seem tired.

I know you're never supposed to show that you're, tired and even if you are, but he just seemed like he was just like just getting going. Wow oh hold on. Let's finish this, so how about this? It would be interesting to get his side of the story because i don't think anyone's heard from michael reeves uh. Well until now, after the fight, i was just happy it was over.

I was just happy that it was done that, like so so thankful, i don't think i've ever been that relieved in my life of something. So that was nice. I think we got kind of lucky by being in the first one, because no one knew what to expect. Imagine like the people who will be in two probably have to train for like a year.

That's some nerve-wracking! That's extra bad! It's just yeah! It's crazy! To see like what what other people saw, because it was a complete different thing, yeah you got ta hit the like button. You got ta, give it a little uppercut on the like button. I'd also like to get my trainer's perspective on this, because seeing all of this again puts things in an entirely different perspective, i thought graham, was very dedicated because it's obvious for me. I saw firsthand how busy he is just through his normal daily life of doing what he does, and he does it very well so to take time and set aside from what you normally do to do something that's out of your comfort zone.

It's very difficult thing and it's hard to kind of guess and judge how much time i really need to put into this to balance out with what i normally do. It's so easy to criticize somebody that's there without knowing where they started, without knowing the corrections that have already been made without knowing like okay, we've planned to do this this, and this and all of a sudden, the fight is something a little bit different. So now we have to make adjustments uh honor, to be part of it and and even more respect for you yeah to do what you did. I'm not even sure i would have done that so so that was great and of course we got to thank the people who made all of this possible to begin with idubbbz and anissa uh.

So far, i think we've raised close to a million dollars for all the charities involved. One of the reasons that this event, i think was a success, is no one had any idea who was bringing the heat. You know it was. It was still 50 50..

Everyone subscribed to graham stefan he is a champ. He is a warrior i thought like he was. He looked like he was in a bomb in the locker room, but he came out there swinging and i'm just i don't know, i'm super happy with you participating in the event uh. It just made it so much better.
