Despite the previous edition being an apparent financial failure, the boxing event which featured famous YouTubers, video game creators, and streamers, is returning in June. After a week of teasing, the full event was announced today (Feb. 4), with the event to take place on June 28.
Organized by Real Good Touring, and announced on World Cancer Day, the third installment of the fan-favorite Creator Clash influencer charity boxing event will fundraise for Stand Up To Cancer.

Creator Clash was first held in March 2022, with dozens of competitors from around the YouTube and streamer ecosystem taking part. The initial edition had some success, but also featured a wild disparity in the skill of the boxers and the quality of the matches. However, it was for a charitable cause.
For the second edition, more training time was given to each fighter, and bigger names, including Myth, Alanah Pearce, and others, were attracted to the event. However, despite this, Creator Clash 2 struggled with viewership.
It’s unknown but assumed that the Creator Clash 3 may well be under new management – namely the Real Good Touring company – especially given the public admittance by iDubbz that the previous event lost around $250,000 – perhaps partly due to a $20,000 stipend for training that was paid to each creator.
“We’re excited to finally bring Creator Clash back for a third round,” said Real Good Touring Head of Events, Justin Tracey. “From day one, the goal has been to put on an entertaining show for the fans while making a real impact for charity, and this year, we’re leveling up. Charity has always been at the heart of Creator Clash, so we took a fresh look at how to maximize its impact. With Creator Clash 3, we’re not only setting up a more sustainable fundraising system, but also creating really fun, interactive ways for fans and creators to get in on the action. With an incredible lineup of fighters, collaborative fundraising, and a six-part docuseries that pulls you deeper into the journey, Creator Clash 3 is shaping up to be the biggest and best one yet with support from Veeps and Tiltify.”

The Creator Clash 3 will take place on June 28, at the Amalie Arena in Tampa Florida. There’s currently a eight match card, featuring YouTubers and streamers, but that number is expected to increase over time.
Tickets for the live event can be purchased on Feb. 5 from Live nation and Real Good Touring.
Tickets for the PPV livestream will be available from Feb. 5 but will not include entry to the venue. The stream will be broadcast on Veeps.
Creator Clash 3 is raising money for Stand Up To Cancer, a US-based cancer awareness and research funding charity.
“Stand Up To Cancer is beyond excited to be the beneficiary of this amazing event, which brings together incredible creators who are competing for fun while also taking on an even greater fight—supporting groundbreaking cancer research,” said Andy Steig, SU2C’s Influencer and Gaming Community Director. “At SU2C, we envision a future where every cancer is caught in time to be cured, and where survivors can enjoy life without fear of recurrence. With your help and the power of this community, we can turn these goals into reality.”
In the lead-up to fight night, fans will get an exclusive, no-holds-barred look at Creator Clash 3. This multi-episode docuseries dives deep into the grit, grind, and chaos of training camp as this year’s creators put everything on the line to throw hands in the biggest event yet.
