On May 14, the Creator Clash boxing event was held in Florida. Content creators from across TikTok, Twitch,YouTube, and beyond faced off in amateur boxing matches to raise money for charity. One of the night’s winners was Harley from Epic Meal Time, known for his epic beard in addition to his epic meals. After defeating Game Grump’s Arin Hanson of the second round via TKO, Harley made a challenge in his post-match interview. The man Harley called out was none other than controversial YouTube streamerDr Disrespect.Harley, fresh off his TKO ofEgoraptor, was primed to flex his strengths. He finished the fight and told the crowd that he’d only used “20% of [his] abilities” against Hanson. But Harley wasn’t content, as he’d then say that he wanted a fight where he could “exercise the remaining 80%” of his strength. “I want to fight someone bigger. I want them to know it’s going down. The Doc,” is how Harley then phrased his challenge.

Needless to say, Harley is well-versed in the theatricality of prizefighting.
Dr Disrespect has, up to this point, not responded to the challenge from Harley. It wouldn’t be surprising if Dr Disrespect did respond, however, as it would certainly make for good content on hisYouTube stream. Whether he would actually take up Harley’s offer is another matter entirely. Dr Disrespect’s elitist character is more akin to joke about how easily they’d win a boxing match, but then never go through with it.
That’s not to say that Dr Disrespect has never considered some sort of physical contest before, however. He did a storytie-in with the WWEat one point and has hinted that he’s still interested in doing more with the professional wrestling promotion. Boxing is a different beast, but it could open the door to the possibility.
Fans of Dr Disrespect, Harley, and the Creator Clash may not have to wait long to hear more information. Creator Clash is already confirmed to be returning the relatively near future. Given the success of the firstboxingevent, and prominent challenges against creators likeDr Disrespect, it would be a shame if a second event didn’t happen.
