HSTikkyTokky Breaks Silence on Tommy Robinson Boxing Riot: ‘It’s My Event. I’ll Do What I Want’

British influencer HSTikkyTokky is defending his decision to bring far-right extremist Tommy Robinson to his boxing event in Ireland.

The Unhinged Promotions event in Kilkenny descended into violence after Robinson and streamer Mo Deen clashed inside the ring, with spectators throwing chairs and fighting. After the fight, Deen jump-kicked Robinson from the ropes before Robinson’s crew rained down blows on him.

HSTikkyTokky, whose real name is Harrison Sullivan, addressed the backlash during a livestream and denied claims that Robinson’s presence caused the event’s collapse.

“Just because I have Tommy at an event promoting the event, etc., doesn’t mean I agree with what he says at all,” he explained, instead blaming two groups in the audience for escalating the violence.

“The real commotion was between two gangs in the crowd that were throwing chairs at each other,” he claimed.

The streamer also disputed Deen’s suggestion that their confrontation had been scripted.

“The plan was for them to face off in the ring. Okay, that was the plan,” he insisted.

Sullivan is already discussing another event, potentially featuring Robinson against Deen.

“It’s the biggest fight in influencer boxing. It has to happen,” he declared.

Sullivan also insisted that fighters whose bouts were canceled had been compensated. As for the criticism surrounding his promotional decisions, he remained unapologetic.

“It’s my event. I’ll do what I want,” he said. “If you don’t like it, watch someone else’s event.”
