He faced streamer Chibu and ultimately lost on the scorecards after a difficult contest that saw the rapper struggle with the power and physicality of his opponent. The bout featured some dramatic moments, including a second-round sequence where Chibu forced Blueface back against the ropes and knocked him out of the ring during a heavy exchange, setting the tone for a fight that swung decisively towards the streamer. Chibu eventually won on all three scorecards, handing the rapper a setback in his return to influencer boxing.

Blueface says he earned over $300,000 for Chibu fight Photo by Joseph Okpako/WireImage Despite the loss, the event still proved financially lucrative for Blueface. Speaking on his own livestream after the fight, Blueface revealed he earned a substantial payday simply for appearing on the Brand Risk card. “How much did I make on the fight?

Oh, I’m not gonna tell you how much I made, but I’ll tell you that I made over 300,000. “I’ll let you guess from there. And that’s just for the fight,” the 29-year-old stated.

The figure highlights the growing financial power of influencer boxing events, particularly those backed by major online creators such as Ross.

According to information shared by Lionel Rivera in 2021, the UFC historically operated with three broad pay tiers for fighters.
