We examine the reason behind Mo Deen vs Alex Stein cancellation and how have the boxers reacted to this move by the Misfits Boxing as the video of the incident goes viral
Following a fairly offensive joke, the influencer boxing match between Alex Stein and Mo Deen has been cancelled. The two were scheduled to square off at Misfits 08, an influencer boxing tournament, this coming weekend. During the most recent press conference, Alex Stein, however, hurled sausages at Mo Deen. Notably, at first it was believed that the sausages were made of pork, which is a prohibited meat in Deen’s religion, Islam.

Know the reason behind cancellation of Mo Deen vs. Alex Stein
YouTuber Alex Stein was kicked out of the most recent Misfits Boxing night after throwing hot dogs at his Muslim opponent Mo Deen. In the press conference, the two sparred before their altercation on Saturday night descended into mayhem. Stein escalated the verbal abuse between the two competitors by dumping a can of hotdogs on Deen while they were both yelling smack to each other. Stein then stated that the turkey meat in the hot dogs was a mistake, but it didn’t assist him; he was still removed off the card. Since many people found the joke disrespectful, Misfits Boxing officially announced on Twitter that Alex Stein will no longer be taking part in the next boxing contest.
How has Mo Deen reacted to this incident?
Following the incident, Mo Deen gave his public response, in which the TikToker expressed his displeasure with the circumstances. Deen admitted that for that practical joke, he wanted to fight Alex Stein and defeat him inside the ring, but he won’t have the chance. Stein claims that it was one of the most significant news conferences in the sport’s history, and that the promoters are preventing the fight from taking place despite if his opponent is willing to engage.
Notably, Mo Deen came into limelight after his infamous incident with Logan Paul. In August, Logan Paul travelled to London for watching KSI’s fight and after the event, Mo Deen began provoking Paul and his entourage. However, this proved to be the wrong move for Deen as Paul’s security team chased after Deen and captured him.
