Despite the previous edition facing financial challenges, the highly anticipated influencer boxing event is making a comeback this June. Featuring well-known YouTubers, streamers, and content creators, the event promises exciting matchups. After a week of teasers, the official announcement was made on February 4, confirming that the event is set to take place on June 28.
This edition is being organized by Real Good Touring and was announced on World Cancer Day. The third installment of the Creator Clash series will serve as a major fundraising event for Stand Up To Cancer, a nonprofit dedicated to cancer research and awareness.
The Return of Creator Clash 3: Influencers Step Back Into the Ring
First launched in March 2022, Creator Clash introduced an unconventional yet entertaining mix of YouTubers and streamers stepping into the boxing ring. The debut event had moments of success but was also marked by significant disparities in skill levels, leading to a variety of match qualities. However, the event remained rooted in its primary mission: raising money for charity.
With its second installment, the event saw an increased focus on fighter preparation, giving competitors more time to train. This edition also attracted bigger internet personalities, such as Myth and Alanah Pearce. Despite these improvements, Creator Clash 2 struggled with viewership numbers and financial viability.

This assumption is supported by past admissions from iDubbz, who publicly stated that the previous event resulted in a loss of approximately $250,000. A significant factor in this deficit was the $20,000 training stipend granted to each participant.
“We’re excited to finally bring Creator Clash back for a third round,” said Justin Tracey, Head of Events at Real Good Touring. “From the beginning, our goal has been to create an entertaining show for fans while making a tangible impact for charity. This year, we’re taking things to the next level. Charity has always been at the heart of Creator Clash, so we re-evaluated how to make the fundraising aspect more effective. With Creator Clash 3, we’re not only setting up a more sustainable way to raise funds but also introducing fun and interactive ways for both fans and creators to get involved. With an incredible lineup of fighters, collaborative fundraising efforts, and an in-depth six-part docuseries, Creator Clash 3 is shaping up to be the biggest and best edition yet, thanks to the support of Veeps and Tiltify.”
Event Details and Ticket Information
Creator Clash 3 is scheduled to take place on June 28 at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. The event currently features an eight-match fight card, showcasing popular YouTubers and streamers. However, more matchups are expected to be announced leading up to the event.
Tickets for the live event will be available for purchase starting February 5 through Live Nation and Real Good Touring.
For fans who prefer to watch from home, pay-per-view (PPV) livestream tickets will also be on sale starting February 5. These digital tickets will grant access to the event broadcast via Veeps but do not include entry to the venue itself.
Raising Funds for Cancer Research
Creator Clash 3 is dedicated to raising money for Stand Up To Cancer, a nonprofit organization focused on cancer research and advocacy.
“Stand Up To Cancer is thrilled to be the beneficiary of this incredible event, where talented creators are stepping into the ring not just for entertainment, but for a greater cause—supporting vital cancer research,” said Andy Steig, SU2C’s Influencer and Gaming Community Director. “At SU2C, our vision is a world where every cancer is detected early enough to be treated successfully, and where survivors can live without fear of recurrence. With the help of this community, we can make those goals a reality.”
