Long-running feud

Ree Moo is a Filipino-American boxer who has had a similar career to Elijah.
He also made a name for himself online, though his online content is more fitness-focused than Elijah’s comedic videos.
Despite their similarities, the pair have very different boxing styles.
Ree Moo favours the Southpaw stance, a left-handed position which is the complete reverse of Elijah’s right-handed Orthodox stance.
The pair have clashed previously but neither one has been able to get an advantage over the other.
