IShowSpeed Loses to Tacko Fall in Basketball, Gets Dropped in Boxing Match

Popular YouTuber and streamer IShowSpeed has been broadcasting his trip to New Zealand. He's giving fans plenty of moments to talk about, including a basketball game with Tacko Fall and a boxing match with a UFC star.

On Sunday, the 19-year-old streamer faced off against the 28-year-old former NBA star, and needless to say, it didn't go well for him. The 7-foot-6er didn't let Speed get a single shot in, effortlessly blocking every attempt on the hook Speed made.

The streamer has continually proved to be incredibly athletic, but the height difference was just a bit too much for him here.

Eventually, Tacko Fall stopped bullying Speed on the court long enough to assist him in scoring his first-ever dunk.

Speed later participated in a boxing match against UFC star Dan Hooker at the City Kickboxing gym in Auckland. "Nobody here can beat me at boxing," he said earlier in the stream before he got in the ring with Hooker, who dropped him with a brutal body shot that left Speed struggling to maintain himself.

During IShowSpeed's conversation on 360 With Speedy at ComplexCon 2024 in Las Vegas earlier this month, Speed said he wasn't afraid of getting in the ring with YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.

"I feel like I could beat Jake Paul in a fight," he said at the time. "If I have six months, all I need is six months. If I have six months of training, I'm beating any monster in this world. I think I'm knocking him out. In, like, the fifth or sixth round ... It's just going to be that one good one."

Paul later reacted to Speed's claims and suggested that he should "know better." Paul, 27, recently beat Mike Tyson, 58, in a controversial boxing match. Speed, while athletic, will definitely need more training if he wants to prove himself in the ring.
