Adin Ross Accepts Sean O’Malley’s Challenge for MMA Fight Against Sketch

Adin Ross has expressed his willingness to face Twitch star Sketch in an MMA match, a potential bout that UFC champion Sean O’Malley is eager to host.

Although Ross has previously organized boxing matches on his stream, he can no longer host events in Florida due to an incident involving a fighter suffering from brain damage.

In addition to hosting, Ross has sought opportunities to fight himself, agreeing to a boxing match with Kick streamer N3on back in February.

Now, he is challenging another well-known streamer: Twitch star Sketch. UFC champion Sean O’Malley showed interest in facilitating the fight.

During a conversation on Ross’s stream on September 11, O’Malley suggested the idea of a fight, saying, “You versus someone boxing or maybe some MMA. Someone your skill level, I don’t want you to get hurt.” This excited Ross, and O’Malley proposed, “What about you versus Sketch? Three, three-minute rounds, amateur MMA rules… you and Sketch can be the main event.”

Regarding the timing of this fight, O’Malley aims for an event around October 2024, pending arrangements and confirmations.

However, one crucial detail that needs addressing is whether Sketch is interested in the fight, as he has not yet responded.

Fans are showing enthusiasm for the matchup, sharing their opinions on social media about which streamer would prevail in a head-to-head contest. One fan remarked, “Sketch gonna win this one I feel like,” while another said, “Sketch is strong asf though.” Contrarily, one fan believed, “Adin Ross [will win] if it’s MMA.”

This news follows just weeks after Adin Ross tapped out during a grappling match against YouTube star IShowSpeed, with UFC President Dana White overseeing the bout.
