You can tell as soon as the second game comes and KJH is up throw up smashing and didn't even attempt a chaingrab, never attempt to go FD if you cannot currently chaingrab
@@rkraccoons i mean he said it himself, on the chance he loses to juan he cant live that down which is funny af and true. he offered lud to play anyone else in this but lud said it had to be juan.
It is sad to say but they were probably in the upper echelon of boxing abilities we've seen in this whole event. In fact, I think aside from Myth everyone else really sucked as boxers.
@@johnadams3669 how do you know he was good if his opponent took a quick knee, they were all bad but these guys just had some heart the rest are gamers or chess players and it shows 🤣
I can't understate how massive my respect is for both of these players getting out there and putting on a great show. Fiction's edgeguards stayed so clean even after 2 rounds of boxing!
I think Fiction did a really good job pacing himself in the boxing rounds. KJH was swinging and basically going pedal to the metal from round start, Fiction just kinda kept his hands up in front of his face and waited for him to lose some gas then started swinging back. Fiction took advantage of the situation when his opponent’s hands started drooping.
So happy to help Shep. Tayborn / Nick helped tremendously in spars, coach Salman. KJH did an incredible job with pure grit to pull through the final game. Fantastic event, hope they do more.
Despite being a Fiction stomp on the Melee side, this was easily my favorite match of the entire event. Both went so hard and it was beautiful to watch the entire time.
Super funny, before the fight Kalindi and Fiction expressed keeping it clean and boxing with neutral. The bell rang and KJH forgot everything and flailed at him. Fiction looked defensive and took blocks and punches knowing KJH would gas himself out. His coach yelled at him not to rush. Hopefully it explains the early game into the loss of stamina later!
That was a great match man. I gotta say Kalindi definitely won the boxing, but Fiction really went in on Melee. Props to Fiction again for keeping it close at the end of the boxing matches. It reminded me of Naruto vs Sasuke when they were out of chakra.
I've literally never been inerested in boxing, but woww this single video was so fun to watch! I was on the edge of my seat during both boxing and Smash!
For sure! Imo Chess isn't as universal. If someone came to watch this and didn't know what chess or smash was, Smash would be a lot easier to understand.
Should make a rule where in the smash round if you don’t take off any stock on your opponent, they automatically win, and it’s considered a knockout in smash
Ludwig I highly doubt you'll see this but on the off chance you do keep in mind to take turns casting (most times) there was a lot of moments where all 3 of you were talking and I couldn't make out any of it but hindsight is 20/20 Otherwise fucking fantastic event I loved it, dude really puts on the best
If someone told me a year ago this event was going to take place, I would had thought it was pure Fiction.
I see what you did there
I’d say the same for Nintendo sponsored panda cup 😢😂
@@Afatdragon and thats a terrible joke since panda cup has nothing to do with fiction (the smash player)
this comment has 800 likes
the time to erase the comments section has long passed, and we ended up here. damn
A year ago it was pure fiction. Greatness is, when people can make fiction happen. Hats off to Lud. Brilliant idea for a format
Fiction was so clean in smash even after taking hits, he just has that DOG in him
What if I told you fiction had that DAWG in him
I played smashboxing with my wife but we werent playing video games
@@redmist6630 Sounds like you’re overcompensating 😬
@@redmist6630 Nobody:
You: “I smash my wife and then I beat her.”
he sure as shit wasnt clean with the boxing, throwing out haymakers after the bell twice FOR SHAME
You can tell how expensive this must have been based on how fast this went up
so fucking expensive, this is crazy production
@@goner8102 Ludwig did say he spent 1.5 million on this, and even then he had a bunch of big sponsors.
Shakedrizzle was behind the scenes at the event uploading as they were happening. Actually crazy
well theres some audio errors soo they dont seem to have any audio guys
@@redmist6630 The audio was pretty damn good on the live stream
that first melee game went nuts, you can tell how much the boxing effected them in the later rounds
You can tell as soon as the second game comes and KJH is up throw up smashing and didn't even attempt a chaingrab, never attempt to go FD if you cannot currently chaingrab
Ludwig making sure nobody posts these clips for themselves 😂
19:54 me an my bro after the acid hits and hes freakin out but I just wanna play smash
@@redmist6630 😂😂😂
his editor was working hard during the stream fr
honestly this is genius, idk why more content creators don't do this
@@RandomShowerThoughts Money.
I would love to see mango vs literally anyone in this format
Mang0 hbox was supposed to happen, but surprisingly mang chickened out....
@@rkraccoons and hbox chickened out of fighting joshman
@@oliknight8897 broke his shoulder
It would be funny but man there's no way Mango has the conditioning for that. Kalindi is in great shape and he's gassed as fuck, imagine Mango hahaha
@@rkraccoons i mean he said it himself, on the chance he loses to juan he cant live that down which is funny af and true. he offered lud to play anyone else in this but lud said it had to be juan.
I dont know why, but it cracks me up seeing jerma be a ringmaster for this. Its like such a random place, like wheres waldo 😂
Its like a weird dream a chatmember explained to Jerma. I wanna see nascarboxing next
im fully convince jerma isnt real and its just a super advanced holigram as the ringmaster lol
@@DragonSlayer3050 it's a stunt double (the puppet created from the horrors in the meat grinder)
This was way more entertaining than it had any business being. They suck as boxers, but they absolutely went for it. Kudos to both.
It is sad to say but they were probably in the upper echelon of boxing abilities we've seen in this whole event. In fact, I think aside from Myth everyone else really sucked as boxers.
@@mikeoath9541 2 saint wasnt half bad, his opponent was just terrible so we didnt get to see much
@@johnadams3669 how do you know he was good if his opponent took a quick knee, they were all bad but these guys just had some heart the rest are gamers or chess players and it shows 🤣
Hugs had hands, his base was actually very good for an novice. If the ref let that fight continue Toph would have gotten his shit rocked.
@@boricua9071 That's true!
Dude this match was definitely a highlight of the night. I’d love to see more Smashboxing.
I can't understate how massive my respect is for both of these players getting out there and putting on a great show. Fiction's edgeguards stayed so clean even after 2 rounds of boxing!

hello siivagunner guy
Jerma showing up at the end of these matches is beginning to give me whiplash
I demand more smash boxing, that was thoroughly entertaining
I swear bro we all needed this
We need Mango vs Hbox
i love seeing the fighters talking to eachother in between
jerma talking to fiction in a boxing ring is something that I never expected to see
lmaoo
I love that the crowd was into the melee
God Phil is just an amazing choice for smash boxing commentary
Phil always top tier commentary
So happy to help Shep. Tayborn / Nick helped tremendously in spars, coach Salman.
KJH did an incredible job with pure grit to pull through the final game. Fantastic event, hope they do more.
The crowd noises make this so much more ducking epic
3:34 “so Fox has a fun little trick where….”
Commentator’s Blessing.
Wow what a historic event. We got the _first_ smash boxing match in history and the _greatest_ match in history.
Phil's commentary was so hype, sick match
Despite being a Fiction stomp on the Melee side, this was easily my favorite match of the entire event. Both went so hard and it was beautiful to watch the entire time.
This was so insanely hype
I look forward to a rematch!!!
Kalindi needs to work on his stamina
Fiction can work on his early game
Super funny, before the fight Kalindi and Fiction expressed keeping it clean and boxing with neutral. The bell rang and KJH forgot everything and flailed at him. Fiction looked defensive and took blocks and punches knowing KJH would gas himself out. His coach yelled at him not to rush. Hopefully it explains the early game into the loss of stamina later!
Phil will forever be the commentary goat, getting the crowd amped up like that was such a treat to see
My man KJH got no support from no one while Fiction had a real good mental coach keeping him motivated. Props to both for the matches
Holy shit this was actually so entertaining. GGS to Fiction, may be my favorite match of the night
I don't even know these guys, but that was fucking epic on both of their parts. Kudos. Kudos af.
LOVED this match. Fiction had such a positive mindset look to him. Very enjoyable competitor to watch. Great job!!
WOW. This was the best match of the entire event. Amazing!
Congrats to both players, both out their souls into it.
Fiction surprisingly good at boxing
Classic Match up - Fast lights, fast moves. thanks slime
I NEED a whole event of this
beautiful representation of melee, thank you both
Favorite match of this event, smash boxing is an incredible new idea and this match just proves how hype it can be
How the fuck does RUclips detect this as EA Sports UFC LMAO
Anyways, it's amazing to see how they contract their muscles during melee
Definitely the best smashboxing event of the night.
This is one of the Smash Bros sets ever
i'm blasted as fuck and 15:37 had me thinking i was having a heart attack
Bro same 😂😂
That was a great match man. I gotta say Kalindi definitely won the boxing, but Fiction really went in on Melee. Props to Fiction again for keeping it close at the end of the boxing matches. It reminded me of Naruto vs Sasuke when they were out of chakra.
Fiction was a total beast in smash
Smashboxing set a new standard for esports
this being marked as EA Sports UFC is crazy
The intensity is real fiction has such a stone jaw to secure that win . J was slugging heat
I ALMOST CRIED, THIS WAS AMAZING TO WATCH
I didn't have Shepherd Lima as the "pure, primal aggression" type, but dude, maybe he is that guy
KJH would not stop punching, 90% trash volume
I've literally never been inerested in boxing, but woww this single video was so fun to watch! I was on the edge of my seat during both boxing and Smash!
that was amazing fiction really took those punches well
I think next time the entire event needs to be Smash Boxing. I think it was so much more entertaining!
For sure! Imo Chess isn't as universal. If someone came to watch this and didn't know what chess or smash was, Smash would be a lot easier to understand.
Fiction got more and more plugged in the more he got punched
I wish this kind of commentary was at actual smash events
This whole event is dope. Hope to see this grow
Honestly this is exactly how I’d expect two melee players to fight
I love this so much, we need another event like this. This was insane , thanks Ludwig
Should make a rule where in the smash round if you don’t take off any stock on your opponent, they automatically win, and it’s considered a knockout in smash
This is what the salty sweet shoulda been from the beginning
Fiction is a solid guy Congrats to him and props to KJH
Shame about the audio problems but this was a great idea
This was so fun to watch! I hope you will do more smash boxing in the future and maybe let Leffen get a taste? 👀
is anyone hearing overlapping commentary at the 16:00 mark? like, another Ludwig from the last game is audible.
me too
this is good for smash because the competitors are too exhausted by the end to throw a controller hard enough to break LOL
honestly smashboxing was way more exciting than chessboxing
id love a full tournament of only this
I think I prefer the Smash-Boxing to Chess-Boxing, very entertaining!
Fiction dropping weight means his cardio was probably way better than KJH, who had to focus on gains
this is such a hype event
16:04 16:18 sounds like 6 diff videos overlapping talking at once lol
Wtaching every video back every video sounds like 6 diff videos overlapping
the classic Fox 4x shine combo
this ref is a criminal to the sport of boxing , whatcha name son
This is now officially the best fucking sport on the planet
Loved fiction fighting
The boxing needed healthbars
You guys have Smash and Boxing? Thats amazing! Wow!!
Fucken Phil fictions just taking them had me dying
We need mang0 vs ludwig or mang0 vs hbox or hbox vs leffen
It's funny when the audio started echoing when they were going wild throwing hands. It sounded like they arguing with themselves
I love how youtube says this video category is EA Sports UFC...
EA tryna capitalize with their 8 year old game smh. 😤
We need Slime vs Ludwig and Mango vs Hbox next
Even though he’s bald Slime was the perfect commentator for smash boxing
all the wild swings they both threw. no wonder they both got winded within a minute.
Smashboxing might be the best thing I've ever watched
That first game on dreamland was nuts
this needs to continue as an event
I kind of wish that there was many more smash boxing! I loved these! I know chess is going to be exciting, but just know I can't wait to see the rest!
the hits after the bells were craaaaaaazy
chillin should’ve done this vs leffen
Absolutely hilarious how gassed they are by the 3rd round of melee. SO ENTERTAINING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this was THE match of the event
Megalobox feelings rn. This event was fucking LIT
I wish there was a league boxing event. Except it's you vs your team
Jerma is so funny in this role.
Get SFAT in this! his playstyle and physique would make him dangerous.
as someone who couldnt watch the live due to work schedule, i am SO GLAD the vids are instantly up!
Smash Boxing is my new favourite sport
KJH WE LOVE YOU
I swear I had this exact television from my parents' home back in the late 1990's. Brings me back.
KJH in the first half of the first round looked clean! Good form. Soon as he ran out of gas it was curtains tho 🔥
audio issues for most of the 2nd boxing round :(
why am i so in love with this
Ludwig I highly doubt you'll see this but on the off chance you do keep in mind to take turns casting (most times) there was a lot of moments where all 3 of you were talking and I couldn't make out any of it but hindsight is 20/20
Otherwise fucking fantastic event I loved it, dude really puts on the best
Everyone at the exact same time :Allow me to introduce myself
