YouTube star Slim Albaher landed a vicious knockout on fellow social media sensation 3Bidaan in the latest celebrity boxing match last night.

The pair competed on the undercard of the 'Social Knockout 2' fight event at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, which was headlined by Reshad 'Money Kicks' Belhasa taking on Ajmal Kahn.

And with just seconds to go in a back-and-forth three round contest, Albaher landed a beautiful right hand to stop his opponent in a knockout that has gone viral on Instagram.

Bidaan dropped and the fight was instantly called off, with medical personnel needed on the scene to tend to the social media star.

Speaking to Mirror Fighting after the bout, Albaher said that he feels the finish will rival stoppages including Jake Paul's over Nate Robinson and Ben Askren as the "most brutal" in influencer history.

"I feel like that was the most brutal influencer boxing KO that ever happened," he said.

"A lot of people really underestimate my power because of my frame.

"So I’m happy because I feel like this was a huge statement to the world to prove that this slim dude can punch."

3Bidaan, an influencer from Abu Dhabi, had won his debut on the first Social Knockout card with a stoppage, and proved the toughest test of Albaher's three fight career.

Albaher made his debut in 2019 when he stopped Yousef 'FouseyTube' Erakat at York Hall in London, before winning his second bout this summer within seconds at the promotion's first event.

His bout with Amir Fotoohi, who goes by the social media name N&A Productions, was an outrageous mismatch that the referee stopped within seconds, and he is now 3-0 with 3 KOs in the YouTube boxing space.

He called out Brazilian influencer Faze Temperrr, a member of the renowned ESports organisation Faze, after the bout, although there has yet to be a response.

Temperrr, whose real name is Thomas Oliveira has yet to box at any level, and would likely need to compete at least once before taking on a confident amateur like Albaher.

The card saw a number of influencers take to the ring for the first time, as well as the returns of the likes of Belhasa and Adam Saleh, who both picked up big wins.

Belhasa landed a first round finish in his main event bout against Khan, who appeared to quit after being dropped early by the hometown favourite.

Saleh defeated Anas Elshayb by decision in the co-main event of a show which featured the first ever women's fight in social media boxing history.

Saudi Arabian TV presenter Saleen Ahmed lost to Tik Toker Jumana Khan as social media boxing finally introduced female fighters.

Elsewhere on the card, Instagram star Niall Ryan was finished in the third round of his bout with fitness influencer Ahmed Tyson.

And there were also musical performances from Grammy nominated rapper DaBaby and British hip hop star Giggs on the night.
