Hasim Rahman Jr will take on former UFC heavyweight Greg Hardy in the main event of the latest Misfits Boxing card tonight.
Rahman Jr shot into the spotlight after agreeing a deal to fight Jake Paul in August, but the fight fell through after the YouTube star cancelled the event due to contracted weight issues. The American heavyweight then agreed to return to the influencer scene headlining this latest Misfits Boxing event against Vitor Belfort.
However Belfort contracted coronavirus and was forced to withdraw which has seen former UFC star Hardy step in at short notice. The fight card will also feature some familiar faces from the previous Misfits Boxing bills including King Kenny and FaZe Temperrr, with action set to get underway at 1am in the UK. The main event will follow at around 4am with Rahman Jr and Hardy set to make their ring walks for a 4:15am start.
We take a look at the fights on the latest Misfits Boxing card below...
Hasim Rahman Jr v Greg Hardy
Rahman Jr will return to the ring for the first time in several months after his fight with Paul collapsed. The American heavyweight is eyeing a return to the professional ranks where he holds a record of twelve wins with one defeat, and a win could see him put together a charge for a bridgerweight title shot.
Hardy has stepped in on short notice to replace Belfort at late notice, and has no prior experience in the boxing ring but has spent three years competing in the UFC. He will be a likely outsider with Rahman Jr ready to produce a statement in the headline act.
Deen The Great v Walid Sharks
Deen The Great will return on the latest Misfits Boxing when he takes on fellow content creator Sharks in the co-main event. Deen The Great produced a scintilatting display to beat Evil Hero on the maiden card of the series and will be looking to bolster his record again after earning many plaudits.
Sharks has prior experience in the ring having drawn with content creator Adam Saleh in a split decision, and he will be hoping to cause an upset against his rival who has shown real potential in the squared circle.
Josh Brueckner v Chase DeMoor
Brucekner will return to the boxing ring for the second time after defeating Tyler Smith on the undercard of KSI's rematch with Logan Paul. He has a record of 3-2 in professional MMA and has shown his fighting pedigree, and will take on influencer DeMoor who shot to fame during his time on Netflix series Too Hot To Handle.
DeMoor has fought once before in an exhibition against Cory Wharton on the undercard of AnEson Gib's win over Austin McBroom this year and is eyeing a maiden win in his first professional clash.

FaZe Temperrr v Overtflow
YouTube boxing star Temperrr will look to overcome the disappointment of his defeat to Slim Albaher last time out with a win over Overtflow. Temperrr began his career well with a convincing display over King Kenny which was later overturned and ruled as a debut win, but struggled with the skill of Albaher on the opening Misfits card in London.
Overtflow hasn't fought since losing in his debut against FaZe Sensei on the undercard of KSI's first meeting with Logan Paul, but will be hoping for better fortunes against another member of the FaZe Clan.
King Kenny vs DK Money
YouTube boxing regular feature King Kenny will travel overseas to make his latest appearance after winning controversially against FaZe Sensei on the opening Misfits card. Kenny has been no stranger to controversy with his original first win against FaZe Temperrr overturned after he had his hand raised despite most people declaring him behind on their scorecards.
Dk Money has fought twice in boxing with his first bout coming in a bare-knuckle defeat to Nick Ireland last July, before winning on the undercard of Deji v Alex Wassabi this year with his opponent Ryan Taylor disqualified.
Minikon v Nick Joseph
Minikon will return to the ring looking for a first win in the influencer boxing world after losing to Armz Korleone in his debut on the undercard of Deji's clash with Alex Wassabi. He was also unlucky that his second fight was stopped early after an accidental head clash on the undercard of AnEson Gib's fight with Austin McBroom.
His opponent Joseph has risen to fame for being a content creator and comedian, and will be hoping to make a statement on his boxing debut.
Fangs vs 6ar6ie6
'Grandmother' of gaming Fangs will take to the ring against gothic TikTok star 6ar6ie6 in the second ever female encounter on a Misfits Boxing card. The pair will look to follow on from the limelight created by TikTok stars Astrid Wett and Keeley Coltran who fought on the last bill in the UK.
Brandon Buckingham v Ice Poseidon
Buckingham, who is known for his large platform on YouTube, will take on streaming sensation Ice Poseidon with both men making their boxing debuts. Poseidon has talked big in the build-up and has vowed to shock the world by suggesting he has trained himself to be "the most technical YouTube boxer ever".
