Influencer boxer Mo Deen says he has received death threats after a violent confrontation with controversial far-right activist Tommy Robinson sparked a riot at a boxing event in Ireland.
The streamer became emotional while addressing the incident on Instagram Live, insisting he followed an agreed-upon plan.
“I’m not trying to cause problems,” Deen said.
“This is like WWE … I followed the scripts, I’m getting death threats, people trying to kill me – what the hell?”
So attacked on Tommy Robinson was scripted. Almost like everything Tommy Robinson does. https://t.co/9p9NFwJMMm

The confrontation unfolded Saturday night at an Unhinged Promotions boxing event in Kilkenny, organized by internet personalities Harrison Sullivan, known as HSTikkyTokky, and Ed Matthews.
Deen, whose real name is Mohammad Kubba, had just defeated fellow influencer Mr UK Kick when he climbed out of the ring and attacked Robinson.
Security intervened, but the situation deteriorated after Sullivan called for the two men to return to the ring.
Robinson, 43, reportedly threw a copy of his book at Deen before fighting broke out among spectators.
Chairs and barriers flew across the venue, leaving attendees running for safety. Authorities confirmed two arrests, including a teenager charged with violent disorder. A man in his 30s was hospitalized following an assault.
Four scheduled fights were reportedly canceled.
Deen later said he was confused about why he was facing backlash.
“So what’s everyone trying to attack me for?” he asked.
Sullivan later admitted he should have hired additional security, saying, “Everyone makes mistakes when you are trying to grow something.”
The event ended with police and security clearing the venue.
Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, has spent years making inflammatory remarks about Islam and Muslims. The 43-year-old co-founded the far-right English Defence League in 2009 and has repeatedly characterized Islam as a threat to British society.
In a 2016 interview with Newsweek, Robinson declared, “I’m just opposed to Islam. I believe it’s backward and it’s fascist.” He also referred to the European refugee crisis as a “Muslim invasion of Europe.” In 2018, he told Sky News he did not care whether his rhetoric “incites fear” of Muslims. Although Robinson apologized in 2013 for creating fear within Muslim communities and claimed his opposition was directed at extremism rather than Muslims generally, he has continued to face criticism for his anti-Islam rhetoric.
