Creator Clash was a charity boxing event consisting of 9 fights between 18 content creators held on May 14, 2022, at the Yuengling Center on the campus of the University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida.[1] The headlining fight of this event was between YouTubers iDubbbz and Dr. Mike. The event featured other popular creators such as Harley Morenstein (of Epic Meal Time), Arin Hanson (of Game Grumps), theOdd1sOut, Michael Reeves (of Offline TV) and Ryan Magee and Matt Watson of Supermega, and Dad. This event also featured the first fight between female content creators as JustaMinx faced against Yodeling Haley.[2][3] The event was organized by iDubbbz and his wife Anisa with the events company Real Good Touring.

Background

The Yuengling Center, where the event was held

In 2018, YouTuber iDubbbz called out fellow YouTuber Ricegum in a video entitled "Content Cop - Jake Paul".[4] In 2018, Ricegum would challenge iDubbbz to a boxing match.[5] In a video uploaded in October 2021 by iDubbbz, it was revealed that Ricegum had backed out of his desire to fight him and he was actively searching for new creators to join his planned event.[6] This would later evolve into the Creator Clash event.

The event featured many different creators from different genres of content, most who had never previously boxed before starting training for the event.[7] iDubbbz stated that he wanted this event to feel different from previous YouTuber boxing events and ensured that fighters were taking the event seriously.[8] The proceeds of the event, which iDubbbz states was "close to a million dollars[9]," supported the charities the American Heart Association,[7] The Alzheimer's Association,[9] and The Healing Horse Therapy Center.[9]
