IShowSpeed has emerged as a big internet sensation in the last few months. The 19-year-old American streamer is quite popular for his In Real Life (IRL) streams. Most recently, he did one IRL stream at Fanatics Fest. Interestingly, there IShowSpeed destroyed the punching machine record of UFC light heavyweight champion, Alex Pereira.
IShowSpeed has gained fame for his incredible athletic abilities. Recently, the streamer’s video went viral after successfully leaping over two supercars in a row, showing his athletic prowess. Unsurprisingly, IShowSpeed’s undivided love for his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo is another reason for the growth of his fanbase. Recently, he showed another glimpse of his athletic abilities as he outscored Alex Pereira on a punching machine. IShowSpeed won with 921 points compared to Pereira’s 906.
However, before that, at the UFC Performance Institute’s PowerKube, Pereira broke Francis Ngannou‘s strongest punch record. ’Poatan’ achieved a higher score than the former heavyweight champion with a score difference of around 60,000. Following that, he tested his punching powers again during an appearance at Fanatics Fest. However, this time on a standard punch machine.
Currently, Fanatics Fest is happening in New York City. It has gathered numerous well-known athletes from the world of sports such as Tom Brady, and Kevin Durant. Moreover, professional wrestlers like Cody Rhodes and Rhea Ripley are also set to be in attendance.
IShowSpeed was another big name who attended Fanatics Fest the previous day. Interestingly, he beat another UFC fighter, Randy Brown. This time in a 40-meter dash while looking him directly in the eye. However, these weren’t the only chances he’s gotten to showcase his athletic abilities this weekend, by far.
