We knew Adin Ross\u2019 Brand Risk 14<\/a> would be a s–t show, but did we anticipate just how much of a s–t show it would be? Absolutely not.<\/p>\n

The Influencer combat sports show was held in the UFC\u2019s Meta Apex building. It featured some big names in the sideshow carny world of YouTubers, pseudo-celebrities, and former athletes. It was somehow even licensed by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, with pro boxing bouts and all the main card freakshows being designated as amateur.<\/p>\n

When the NSAC gets involved, there\u2019s a certain level of safety and scrutiny that you\u2019d hope happens which simply didn\u2019t on this card. One bout was between William Norwood Jr aka \u201cRay J\u201d and DeWayne Stevenson aka \u201cSupa Hot Fire.\u201d Ray J was literally in the hospital<\/a> at the start of 2026 after a bad case of pneumonia led to heart failure. That didn\u2019t stop him from getting into the ring against \u201cSupa Hot Fire,\u201d who knocked him out in the second round.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s where things went from irresponsible to potentially criminal.<\/p>\n

\u201cYo, I thought we had a plan!\u201d Ray J declared on the mic, speaking directly to his opponent. \u201cLike a motherf–ker. For real my n–ga? That\u2019s janky as f–k. I don\u2019t wanna say too much because I don\u2019t wanna get anybody in trouble but damn, my n–ga. N–ga, we took an L tonight. I gotta talk to this n–ga about this. How much money we lost!\u201d<\/p>\n

The fight between Ray J and \u201cSupa Hot Fire\u201d was suspicious from the start, with \u201cSupa Hot Fire\u201d refusing to throw a single serious punch in the first round. In the second round, Ray J backed him up against the ropes, prompting a single punch from \u201cSupa Hot Fire\u201d that spun Ray J around and made him collapse against the ropes (watch highlights here).<\/a> \u201cSupa Hot Fire\u201d didn\u2019t keep punching \u2026 he watched Ray J stumble back, turn, and fall, and it was the one moment during the whole fight that he wasn\u2019t smiling.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s be clear: anyone that\u2019s betting on these Influencer freakshow events gets what they deserve as far as integrity goes. There\u2019s a reason sportsbooks weren\u2019t touching it, and only the sketchiest of predictive markets had any online play. If you\u2019re betting on stuff this dumb, just stop and get help.<\/p>\n

That being said, you can\u2019t have fixed fights that are overseen by the Nevada State Athletic Commission in Las Vegas. Fixing fights is illegal, no matter how dumb and pointless those fights are. Having a fixed fight happen at a licensed event inside the UFC Meta Apex is a bad look.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We knew Adin Ross\u2019 Brand Risk 14 would be a s–t show, but did we anticipate just how…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":691245,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,75,702],"class_list":["post-691244","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-ufc-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/691244","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=691244"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/691244\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/691245"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=691244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=691244"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=691244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
