The countdown begins for one of the most anticipated events of the year: The Ibai Llanos Evening of the Year. This event, now in its fourth edition, brings together streamers, YouTubers and celebrities in boxing matches. After a long wait leading up to this event, all the details have already been revealed in the official presentation.
The Evening of the Year will be held at the Santiago Bernabéu, Real Madrid’s stadium, on July 13. This macro boxing event will take place in the white coliseum where Ibai and his entire team hope to solve one of the historical complaints of spectators: the lack of visibility. In addition, it will accommodate a total of 80,000 spectators; That is to say, there will be a greater capacity than in the Atlético de Madrid stadium.
Although there is no doubt that the most interesting thing about La Velada de Ibai are the fights and the boxers selected for this long-awaited event. In total there will be a total of six and, according to the Basque streamer, they are totally amazing confrontations. Furthermore, there is one of them – the fifth – who will give a lot to talk about due to the revolutionary dynamic that has been implemented and the large number of boxers that will be there.
The Evening will begin with a quick fight between two thin and not too tall streamers. It will be Argentina against Spain/Andorra.
It will be the heaviest fight in the history of this event: over 100kg. It is also a confrontation between streamers from Spain and Argentina.
The only women’s match, Spain against Mexico, will be 2v2. This is one of the big surprises of this year and it will be 5 rounds if necessary – although if there is a future agreement it could be more.
The operation is simple. One boxer with another in the first round. In the second, the other two who have not fought rise. In the third, one repeats the one he has not fought against and who was resting. In the fourth, the combat that has not yet been carried out is carried out. In the fifth they will have to agree to decide which fight takes place.
In the event that someone cannot continue, their partner will always have to fight. The winning couple will be the one that manages to win 3 matches, so there may not be 5 matches held. There may even be changes so that there are 6 rounds with a seventh in case a tiebreaker is needed.
Viruzz returns to the fray after having resolved his situation due to having tested positive for doping. He will face Shelao, who was already in the third edition in a failed match against Misho. There will be no helmet as a safety measure. This will be a Spain against Chile.
The fights will last one minute each. A judge will decide which boxer stays and must fight a new boxer. If he wins, he continues. If he loses, he leaves room for someone else. 20 minutes of non-stop boxing that whoever the judges decide will win. It is a boxing-adapted version of the famous WWE Royal Rumble.
The highlight of La Velada will be a high-altitude combat. Plex, one of the most beloved content creators in Spain for his trips around the world, will face El Mariana, a star in the Latam community.
