The influencer boxing event is now the subject of even more rumours after the “Ireland Boys,” a YouTube duo. Published DMs via Social Gloves that seemed to ask them to compete for a pittance.
One-half of the Ireland Boys, Nick Ireland, said that McBroom’s boxing promotion business. Social Gloves had contacted him with an early offer to compete against fellow influencer, Ryan Johnston.

Then Nick inquired as to how much they would be prepared to pay him to box. However, it appears that their budget was extremely tight.
Social Gloves sent Nick messages saying that they were “very tight on the money” and requesting the “lowest” price he would be ready to accept.
“The card is already set but if money isn’t your motivation then we might be able to work something out,”
They Stated the following:-
“Not saying you would fight for free but the budget is low. What’s the lowest you could get in the ring for?”
“For the time, effort, and energy and everything that I have to devote to take the fight seriously, they’d have to give me a little bit of a baggie,”
Nick admitted stating that
“If they weren’t gonna give me a baggie, I don’t think it would be worth it just for the exposure alone.”
In the end, Nick decided against participating in the battle since he might not get paid for his time. Comparing the situation to the $100 million lawsuit he had against LiveOne following the Battle of the Platforms the previous year.
The status of McBroom’s boxing battle with AnEsonGib is uncertain at this time, as he has not yet responded to Nick’s accusations.
