Last week, Seth ‘Scump’ Abner, a former professional Call of Duty League (CDL) player, made waves by announcing his mid-season retirement. Since then, he has shifted to content creation and has actively participated in interviews. In a recent one, Scump disclosed that, under certain conditions, he would be willing to engage in a “influencer boxing” match. He stated that he would only engage if the battle was well-promoted and the revenues were donated to charity, and he would also require a safe and controlled setting.
Scump’s comments coincide with a growing trend of influencer boxing matches, in which popular content creators and social media figures enter the ring for a highly-publicized and often lucrative fight. Some people have liked these matches because they are fun to watch, while others have said they are pointless and dangerous.
