TIKTOKER ‘CONFIRMS’ EBEN ETZEBETH BOXING MATCH

In his latest TikTok video, Kieran Williams – an ardent England rugby fan – claimed his boxing match against Eben Etzebeth was set in stone.

This, after he claimed boxing officials had contacted him about his challenge to the Springbok last week.

In the clip, he said, “We have a date and a venue. Yes, I am boxing Eben Etzebeth in six rounds of boxing.

“The main card is me and Eben. The rounds are two minutes long, and six of them, and I’m going to beat Eben on points”.

Kieran added that officials were organising the boxing match, although he did not mention who or when it would occur.

The outspoken social media star then continued his trash-talking of the Springbok.

He added: “Eben can’t run for me anymore…It’s not actually that crazy. He can’t move. The guy is slow.”

CLOUT CHASING AGAIN?

While many Springboks supporters warned Kieran Williams that boxing Eben Etzebeth was a “death wish,” others in the comments section called his bluff.

“Is this fight being fought via a video game?”

“Just another lie like him coming to Cape Town.”

“He must first fight Faf and then see about Eben.”

After losing a bet that the Springboks would play in the Rugby World Cup finals, Kieran claimed he would come to South Africa to meet with local supporters. But the claim was a complete fib – and like most of his videos – were nothing more than a means to trend on TikTok.
