My favorite part was the absolutely incomprehensible double to QUADRUPLE commentators
yeah all the vods are fucked for some reason
For real, who edited this? Terrible job, had to turn the audio off
AND IN THE WHITE CORNER
It’s funny, that didn’t come thru in the live stream. Wonder what happened here
ruined the audio for me man.
Double announcers at certain parts... got REAL confusing

I have one air pod in and I’m like what the hell am I listening to right now 😂
@@garrettbroad4078 Having stereo headphones didn't make it any easier lol
Bro more like quadruple. Good lord.
I think it was an issue with the recording, it was fine live
I did not expect the highest rated players to throw hands that hard, great event.
Bro they look so bad. But then when i started thinking about it, i boxed once, and i prolly looked the same.
@@Zelchinho They had a bit more practice than most of us. We all look incredibly dumb when boxing. Compared to other matches though, it wasn't great
@@Zelchinho Yeah... People tend to overestimate their fighting ability especially men. I only play quest 2 thrill of the fight yet in my head I am a pretty competent boxer until proven otherwise.
@@Zelchinho they look 'bad' because we're so used to seeing the very best in the world do it. it looks the same when watching beginners participate in any sport we are used to seeing professionals play.
@@Zelchinho Me and my friends had a boxing tournament in my back garden when I was like 16, I knocked one of my friends out and completely dominated him and felt like a god. But then i watched the tape back and it looked like a completely useless clown fighting a child, it's a hard sport fr
levy casually dropping the "zero difference between IM and GM" lol
that comment had me dying
He wishes.
He was right though, that match definitely wasn't decided on the chessboard
@@d_andrews Aman was definitely better within the 1st round though, and there certainly is a difference between GMs and IMs
In that context, that's probably true. An IM looking to draw the chess is likely to be able to do it if he manages his time well. But then the IM has to win on the ring....
The biggest difference I think was that Trent was prepared to hit but wasn't ready to get hit. Aman shocked him, he ate Trent's punches, moved forward, and held his ground. Trent really did not expect the blitz
He had a plan until he got knocked in the mouth. And then it all fell apart
@@Uragaan1everyone's gotta plan till they get punched in the mouth!!
aman literally put his face forward and took so many punches like a beast
Exactly, he’s being preparing a long time to hit, not being hit, that shook him very bad
Is that the Andrew Trent guy that's supposed to be "world champion" kick boxer or is it the brother that's the kick boxer? Embarrassing!
Audio was fine in live stream. You can rewatch on the whole event video if anyone wants to hear the commentary. 🙂
Whys it so fucked in the video? Same audio playing over and over again
@@007i1 AND IN THE WHITE CORNER
@@007i1 Perhaps some issue with the multiple language sound imput? Even though I don't hear the spanish/french broadcast it's easy to make a mistake with 2 extra outgoing sound lines.
Guys by any chance do you the link for the full stream or the link if it's unlisted? I already have a hard time following the Chess commentary because I'm amateur at chess but the audio issues really kills whatever comprehension and enjoyment I have
@@buenvidanadz1969 just click on ludwigs channel and go to the live tab located next to videos
Aman landed some great punches in this fight. Outclassed his opponent in both chess and boxing. The ref did a great job with the early stoppage, and even though Trent was upset, he was clearly staggered. Even if it wasn't a perfect stoppage, refs will always err on the side of caution for amateur fights in order to avoid unnecessary damage or injury. Very well done 👏
I love Chessbrah and I am a huge Aman fan, but flailing isn’t incredible boxing skill. It’s embarrassing.
I wish they used this ref in the Andrea/Dina match.
These are just 2 people flailing around stop the cap.. both of them look flat-footed and off balance the whole time...
@@switchhardflip1993 ok, maybe not great skill but he found his mark with a lot of heavy shots and clearly beat his opponent
@ItsJCrew this I can agree with! Ngl for someone like Trent saying he has a passion for boxing with on/off training he sure showed how little he has applied/trained.
I was jumping out of my seat when they started boxing
hi chess!
Danny you have a personal account
Lmao 25 likes
shut up
Their boxing looked like bunch of seven year old kids were fighting against eachother by the way.
Dude. This event was so good. I'm not big into boxing, but it was so fun watching these people play Smash or Chess then box afterwards. The personalities were who participated were amazing as well. Shout out to all the participants!
And its still going live and literally beeing uploaded as they happen
yea i enjoyed it way more than i thought
@@sk4rrt Me too! LOL.. except for that slow and clueless person who reffed Andrea vs Dina match.. He ROBBED ANDREAD of the win.
@@josuevargas1952 Dude. The fact you could choose between Spanish, French or English while it was being live streamed was freaking amazing in my opinion. Ludwig outdid himself this time. Creator of the Year indeed.
smashboxing was shit
Trent wasn't concussed, he's just British.
I was wondering about that. Maybe he is just clumsy, and it looks like he is staggering from a hit.
I dunno, you see his eyes roll right after that hit; it might’ve been cautious, but at an event like this I think a cautious call was the right one
He threw punches exactly how you would expect a chess player to throw lol
@@TheTapMusic he tweeted that he went back and agreed with the ref on this one
@@TheTapMusic teeth all messed up, eyes crossed, staggering around. Like I said, British.
As a jerma watcher, the sound bites randomly of him going IN THE WHITE CORNER is super +2
They debugged him in the latest patch :(
wish he was real
IN THE WHITE CORNA - ANOTHER BYEAH!
A bit unfortunate the audio got scuffed but I guess that's just what happens when it's a race against re-uploaders to get VODs for the individual matches up.
I honestly hope he strikes every damn channel that stole his footage.
Although he should probably clean the video at some point to not give the reuploaders any market :P
Trent had the heart but his body just wasn’t in it. Well played from Amon staying on him not giving him room
Great call by the ref to stop the fight, you could see in the replays how Lawrence got rocked. Would have loved to see the fight go on, but it would have likely ended in a straight K.O.
There was a moment where he wobbled and I know at that point he was done. Glad they stopped the fight
Aman, get the champs name right
@@theodoresipols1192 sorry about that thought I spelled it right
COMING IN FIRST IN THE WHITE CORNER!
These are obvious beginner boxers and stellar chess players, so it totally makes sense to me to stop it like they did. You don't need senseless head injuries at this age, they truly add up.
“Was there a chess portion?” 😂 Regardless of wether the match continued or not, Aman was for sure winning this one!
what's wrong with the audio??
Yeah seemed to have plagued them all night its every video.
Live was fine.
A lot
That intro was actually fire tho
Thank you! Much appreciated
@@OmidMalekTV Ofc shit was too good not to mention
@@OmidMalekTV good shit omid! -DabCat716
The exit not so good though .
Aman clearly put way more work into boxing prep then any other competitor. Man has a beast hidden inside.
I disagree, Aman was ferocious for sure and had some real power, but Myths match was by far the best techical boxing of the night.
@@noone-ld7pt Myth's match was something else, his opponent (sorry i forgot their name) was such an entertaining character! really lifted the spirits of the crowd after the controversial decision made in the previous women's matchup
@@recklesserves155 He was entertaining but I feel like he should have put in like... any chess prep at all. He made like 10 moves in 5 minutes lol
@@TH-dg2mm I legit thought he was throwing the game until the boxing section. It was then I realized that "this guy is not throwing the match, he's just dumb as bricks in chess!"
@@TH-dg2mm i'm pretty sure he knew how to box but didn't know how to play chess and filled for them didn't really have much time to prepare anyways
The audio is a fever dream
Honestly, despite how short it is, I think it is the best match of the evening, followed by Myth vs Meth.
YOu clearly did not watch the Andrea v Dina match!
LMAO I was literally thinking "this dude has major crackhead energy." Just kept punched but it didn't even register. Made for a good fight... but also who goes to a chess boxing event and doesn't even learn chess basics? Dude moved like 10 pieces in 5 minutes.
@@TH-dg2mm he had to sub in for someone else because the other person got a concussion in practice, he was never supposed to be a part of the event until not long prior to it. Plus, it was a good fight despite the chess, and neither of them actually knew what they were doing in the chess game lol.
Andrea vs Dina tho
@@TH-dg2mm he was subbing in but also he was clearly clowning
The 4 simultaneous voice overs are actually intentionally to grab that tik tok audience attention span
If anyone knows Levy then his comment about GM and IM and their difference is HILARIOUS.
Why? It's true there are less differences between GM and IM level when they are playing blitz chess. Even some FMs manage to compete with strong GMs in this time control
@@gp2776 albeit SGM not a real title, Hikaru adopted Levy EASILY in rapid after he actually put focus into the games when Levy won one prior, and Levy is one of the strongest IMs out there with 2 out of 3 gm norms
@@MLG4TheWin Super GMs are on another planet (:
I'm talking about the difference between IM (2400+ FIDE) and GM below 2600 FIDE. Those GMs are much better than IMs in classical chess. But if you compare them in blitz, their strength is often similar.
Aman is 2437 FIDE right now. His best blitz peak online is 2899.
Levy is 2322 FIDE and the best blitz peak online is 2860.
Aman is better than Levy in Blitz (best peak but also more solid/consistent), but they are not so far.
@@MLG4TheWin My answer is deleted by UA-cam each time (maybe too long?).
Short: I'm talking about the difference between IMs 2400+ and GMs
@@gp2776 it's not deleted and I see it, I definitely agree that super gms are a different breed, but gms is the path between both, I'd say if going for an offensive either loss either mate game, run of the mill GM would beat an IM 75/25 if you add draws a IM might be able to squeeze it and it would be 45/30/25 probably even higher in favor of the gms. GMs are still much stronger, I definitely agree that in this format you lose points depending on your performance at the boxing so the line is more vivid, but without it, GMs have the very clear upper hand
the audio is like a bad acid trip
Aman did it for Jerome
At 9:15 on a .25 playback speed shows how brutally hard Aman knocked down Trent.
.25 playback speed for the whole fight is great 🤣
especially the elongated shouts
I don't think it was brutally hard, he didn't use that much power he just snuck him with a really well placed overhand left.
Yeah, IMO people complaining about the TKO call aren't clear enough on what this exact part shows. When someone falls like that with their arms just kinda outstretched & their face blank, that's essentially a split-second knockout, plausibly enough to show concussion signs when examined later. The ref stopped the fight because of the CUMULATIVE impact of the later hard strikes on top of this already serious stun.
Lud really outdid himself. Amazing event!
Yes and it's amazing that there were no problems like audio glitches or shitty refs...
We need Aman vs YokedNando chessboxing now.
May the best GigaChad win!
He got that tuck technique
GM Hambleton did an impressive right cross feint into a left haymaker to knock down IM Trent! Being a boxing and chess fan AND Canadian, I am very pleased. GW Ludwig and team!
Is it the Andrew Trent that's supposed to be "world champion" kick boxer or is it the brother that's the kick boxer? Embarrassing either way! I'm glad he got kicked off social media and now getting KOd by Aman!
@@Scott-uz1cd not the same dude. They are not related in any capacity
did @@Scott-uz1cd confuse trent with tate? 🗿🗿🗿
@@Scott-uz1cd you're thinking of Andrew Tate. This is Lawrence Trent. Two extremely different people
😊
The rapping right when they introduce Aman was so good I love when they rap off the rip right when the beat starts instead of waiting a bit that was straight up fire energy from his homie to get Aman pumped up for his match
this is the match that hyped me up the most, aman really fucking delivered. hope this isnt the last time he boxes
Dude didn't realize how hard he was rocked
I was watching in person and Eric Hansen was running around the entire venue once he got the TKO like a kid it was awesome
I wish they caught that on video!
How cool that you got to go!
I don't think Trent was expecting Aman to come in hot like that, totally caught him off guard and it was all down hill from there.
boxing is like chess, except sometimes you get extra moves and all your pieces move like queens
or in Lawrence´s case you get up the canvas and see queens everywhere 😀
Love the live event, but these vods will have to be redone with all the audio issues. I'm sure these are being done like ASAP, but they way these are being edited is a little scuffed for long term
Aman's trainer is really good. He was in rough shape when he first started training. Still rough but much better now.
It's pretty amazing to put on 40 pounds of muscle in 3 months with legit training, if the commentators are actually correct with those numbers and not just over exaggerating.
@@josephstewart2821 Aman put on 15, Trent lost 25.
@@josephstewart2821 dude 40 pounds of muscle in 3 months is naturally impossible. It's not even possible if you take every PED on the planet as a newbie while also being in the top 0.1% when it comes to the genetic potential for bodybuilding.
@@Sandude Aman put on 15 pounds of weight. Maybe 5 or 6 pounds of that weight is actual real muscle tissue. And that's assuming that he is part of the 0.1% of genetic freaks. Normal people put on 5 to 6 pounds of muscle in a year of training.
@@occultsymbols Don't you have some video tapes to return?
Aman was really good at boxing. It should have been over after the first knockdown. Lawrence was staggering
He had a good chin to take all those early punches but i think a stronger hitter would have knocked him right out
Dude they are SO bad at boxing lol.
@@nathanbarnhart7823 Considering Aman only trained for 3 months, hes decent, he dodged a lot and hit some hard punches
@@turkishball1137 honestly man, when I see people who’ve trained less than a year compete, it’s kind of upsetting. This isn’t chess, there’re real mistakes with real consequences and real brain damage.
He’ll be okay if he doesn’t keep getting downed like that, but he got knocked down 3 times already. If he keeps doing this weird chess boxing nonsense and doesn’t learn how to defend himself, how long is his brain gonna hold up?
" The crowds going wild "
Meanwhile everyone is standing there awkwardly lol
Great call by the ref.
Yep, Trent's gait was quite disturbed after the last exchange, you can see him limping slightly. He may have taken some damage he isn't aware of.
I totally disagree, boxing is supposed to be a spectacle of glorious primal violence not to be called off the moment anyone gets sightly hurt. If I were tent I would have turned round and knocked the ref out for ruining the fight.
@@TyrannosaurusCHEX same crap happened during the creator clash, the refs have a duty to keep the participants completely safe as they are not professional boxers. if one of them gets seriously injured it will look bad on the ref. so some take it way too cautiously imo
Understand that it's not simply because it will look bad for the ref, it's because the participants aren't career boxers. Some of them obviously don't know how to mitigate damage and prevent lasting conditions like CTE. These people have to go back to being streamers/chess players, and they need their head intact for that.
If they were doing these fights regularly then fair enough but since this is going to be a once in a lifetime event I say they should have been allowed to leave everything in the ring - I'm pretty confident neither man had the punching power to cause brain damage in a single bout.
i hope they fix the jumbled audio other than that its impressive they had these up so fast

@@madducks4794 it's amateur boxing, accidents happen
Editor: So how much commentary should we put in the video Mr Lud?
Ludwig: yes...
You know you can tell how fast you wanted to get these out, because you couldn't even wait for each recording to finish before you started editing the others in the background.
honestly you could tell aman was dangerous right from the entrance. he came in confident, relaxed, feeling his music, and unfazed by the crowd. thats a hallmark of great fighters.
Good Ref, not here to see someone stay in 30 seconds longer than they should and hit the floor hard.
It was unfair... Aman gave a killer first blow but Lawrence was trying to even it out...but then he was stopped...
I am no expert in boxing, but in the other instances where a TKO was given, it was kind of obvious that 1 person was clearly having upper hand... and the persons seem to agree as well... But in this case not so much...
@@TheUnrulyMonster It was obvious that aman was winning. He hit Lawrence to the ground and lawrence was stumbling before the fight was called
@@TheUnrulyMonster Re-watch it - when Lawrence is walking back to the ropes/talking to the ref his legs are wobbling. Dude had the equilibrium knocked out of him and was already halfway unconscious at that point.
The only caveat is there was so little time left in the round, he might have been able to play it safe until the bell ran out and then use the chess time to recover more than a typical boxing break would allow. But if the ref didn't separate them at that point, there's no recovering your lost equilibrium while you're getting hit - dude 100% woulda got knocked unconscious with a couple more shots to his head and he wasn't able to properly defend himself.
@@tycenreckker8328 If he had stumbled first, and then fell down afterwards, I would have still agreed...this way it happened the other way round... Could be seen as he was getting warmed up...
At least could have waited for a proper punch....
After all both guys practiced for months for this...
@@TheUnrulyMonster Lawrence wasn't even defending himself in that last flurry, and couldn't even walk. If the ref didn't stop it, he definitely would have been knocked out (since he wasn't even defending himself.) If you're saying he should have had a standing 8, he was, but the purpose of a standing 8 isn't to give them 8 seconds to recover, it's to give the ref time to determine if it's safe for them to continue. He quickly evaluated it wasn't since he couldn't stand properly and struggled to turn to him. Maybe he should have given Trent a couple more seconds to see if he was ok, but it was definitely not unfair. Trent misunderstood what a standing 8 is.
my favorite part is the occasional "COMING IN FIRST, IN THE WHITE CORNER" really helps me understand what is going on
Oh my god the talking over
I didnt expect Laurence to box this badly plus he wasnt in shape. Aman did great. Proud for the chessbrahs
i didnt expect two very high level chess players to end round 2 by tko
imagine a hikaru and Eric Hansen match. that would be great
We all know how that would end haha
Hikaru would get demolished by pretty much anyone in a physical altercation
@@Urketadic 🤣🤣🤣
Didnt that already happen?
@@egads3696 i think they wrestled once in some shaky outdoor footage, not chess boxing though
Ludwig is making a comeback, he just might overthrow Ludwin soon
bruh what's up with the audio there's like three different tracks going at once.
We need an updated KO button with a picture of Aman
Someone like Trent relies on a clear mind to make a living, and he's not a trained fighter. The referee did the right thing.
Bro they need to fix the audio it's making me go crazy
I loved the 'Was there a chess portion?' remark LOL
We can’t discount the fact that Aman is Canadian. Canucks are hewn from the frozen tundra
it sounds like the editor accidentally recorded all the audio on their computer, like you can hear them editing other matches 😭
Trent, thank you for your entertaining performance, regardless of the duration. Good fight.
"Takes Knight"
Commentator one: "And he takes the knight"
Commentator two: "there's a little pooka boo"
Commentator three: "AND THAT WAS A HUGE RIGHT HAND"
If they had the Botez's Ref he wouldn't have even gave him a 8 count
Actually, she probably could have won if they actually ran with the standard rule of stopping the clock during a stoppage, you know, hince the name. They haven't been doing this throughout the whole event, which makes no sense and is completely unfair.
@@Ghastlymane No, stoppage's do not actually stop the time. It stops the bout for the ref to evaluate if it is safe to continue. That being said, Andrea still should have won since the ref started the 3rd standing 8 of the round. Instead of a standing 8, it should have been the match called, but the ref made a mistake. I don't know why you think the clock is stopped, it's not even stopped if it's a mandatory eight count (ie the person being knocked down.) Stop making shit up.
@@IlluviumGaming I was wrong about the professional part, but in amateur boxing they stop the clock to make it fair for the other fighter (the one not getting a count) since they don't have the skills required to finish off their opponent in a shorter amount of time.
What are you talking about the notes fight was lame. Neither hit hard enough to faze the other let alone knock them down
@@andrewbradley3305 there was no notes fight, but I appreciate the effort.

Random ass commentator: COMING IN FIRST IN THE WHITE CORNER, WEIGHTING IN AT A HOUNDRED-
that's no random ass commentator, that's THE Jerma985
Aman was a beast!! I know trent wanted more but no need to get hurt, aman just outclassed him in both sports. Feel a little bad for trend sure but it's the game
This audio is absolutely scuffed lol
Spoilers ahead:
Didn't expect such incredible chess to be followed by a pretty impressive display of boxing as well!! They must've taken their boxing training just as seriously as their chess training. Bit sad about the early stoppage, but they weren't wearing any headgear and those WERE some pretty hard hits. Congrats to Aman for the win.
Don't know about Lawrence but Aman trained hard and had a good coach!
This is just shows all GMS have an overwhelming rage and strength just waiting to come out
What an intro to Aman, I was expecting an Airbus plane to be driven down the aisle.
Levy: "The rapper is a 2200 rated player"
The RZA: "Am I a joke to you?"
There is audio issues in this clip. Two soundtracks at once (audio from after the match playing before they even fight).
i felt like I had three different videos playing in different tabs lol
who ever is in charge of audio mixing is doibg a poor job
"My name's Aman Hambleton, Grandmaster in chess, complete noob in boxing. But, uh, I'm pretty excited about this chessboxing event, because honestly I think I'm probably the highest rated guy to ever do it. And I might also be the worst boxer to ever do it, but I sware im the highest rated chess player...
Lawrence after training with the founder of the sport- He picked a really bad time to fight me, because I've got a lot I want to get out, it's been a tough few months for me, and uh, unfortunately he's the guy I'm going to get it out on.
Aman-I think Lawrence is probably the one saying things to me. I don't really have any special message for Lawrence, I just think he's probably underestimating me right now.
...Aman how do you feel? *What can only be described as a fierce smile* I feel proud, I put in the work, and it showed."
Well done, Aman. You worked hard for this.
am i supposed to understand the commentators lmao
I like how Aman got Babish to come out and make everyone cringe as he walked out
Best fight of the event by far, so nice to see the humble dude crush the other guy
anyone else audio scuffed
Trent gives object lesson in why you shouldn’t run your mouth before an event like this. He’s salty because he talked a lot of shit and found out.
He sold the fight. Then he sold, during the fight.
The more you fuck around, the more you find out
trash talk before the fight is to hype up and sell the event, it's rarely ever anything personal
Nah talking shit is why this stuff is good. We need more
Go look at his Twitter. He was a legitimately pissed about it but he said he went back and looked at the footage and agreed with the refs decision
Dayum. I don't think Trent has ever been in a fight in his entire life. Got knocked out. Put on dream street. He was stepping in pot holes. Lawrence is a tomato can. A girly man. Aman put that leather on him.
apart from the brilliant knockout by aman, i feel so proud to see omid here!!
I'm a triple threat, watch me flex
Thank you!!
@@OmidMalekTV no thank you that walkout is saved in my folder of clips I use to hype myself up now
the ref called that way too early. trent has a right to be pissed about this
The main event looked exactly what I assume two chess players boxing would look like. Good God lol
It was far better than I’d expected! I guess it depends on one’s expectations going in 😅
ya really love the audio mixing, but did enjoy the event
Audio is fucked lmao
All these parallel commentary, feels like I am inside my brain when I am overthinking
Hey Lud I watched the whole steam live and I love all of this content, bur I would also love to be able to go back and watch all of the matches. At the moment, the only way to watch this is on mute. What is up with the audio issues?? Still, great work with the event and I cannot wait to see what comes next. Cheers.
Looks like they re-edited the video to fix the fact that you couldn't see the chessboard at all for half the event, but fucked up the audio in the process.
You can go back and watch the live, the audio for this match is fine in it
New meta is to have at least 5 narrators speaking at the same time. Much more intense
needs to be reuploaded with the correct audio. other than that though I loved this event!
You can still hear the announcers with your volume off
Having Jerma announce this event was amazing he has such incredible natural talent for stuff like this
The audio editing issue is pretty impossible to listen to. Wasn’t happening live, and I feel like I recognize some of the audio from other fights. Hopefully the editor can fix this.
Fortunately it's the clips and not the stream, just gotta recut and reupload.
Why is everyone talking over eachother lol
Aman definitely trained harder than Trent, maybe not in length of training but definitely in his dedication to it. You can even see their confidence in their pre-fight pictures. Aman came determined to win. Trent seems a little bit too nervous/hesitant.
was an honour to watch this live ☺
Great call by the ref! The integrity of the individual comes first. Remember they're not professional boxers not even amateur ones.
This is how I fight in my dreams
fr lmaoo
This video needs to be reuploaded with fixed audio
Hahahhahaa, "Is there a chess portion"
i'd like to imagine all of the commentators were actually just talking over each other like that
Some of the best boxing of the night
