Social Media star HSTikkyTokky sends crude message as he pulls out of Misfits Boxing fight with hours to go
Controversial social media star HSTikkyTokky has pulled out of his planned return to the ring with just hours until the bell.
The Tik Tok sensation is one of the most popular personalities in the influencer boxing world and was scheduled to compete in a short-lived bout tomorrow for the first time since August. He was scheduled to face Moziah 'Mosai Warrior' Pinder on Thursday in Qatar on the Misfits Boxing Super Card.
The event features a massive headliner between AnEsonGib and Slim Albaher and a co-main between Beta Squad's King Kenny and beloved Tik Tok star Salt Papi. HSTikkyTokky would be one of the biggest names on the card, but is now out of action.
HSTikkyTokky sends a rude message as he withdraws from the battle hours earlier
One of the most anticipated fights of the Misfits event in Qatar was announced on short notice last week when HSTikkyTokky was called up to fight the 'Mosai Warrior'. The Brit, who goes by the name of Harrison Sullivan, made his debut in August when he viciously knocked out George Fensom in Dublin.
And he was set to return tomorrow night, until he suffered a shoulder injury that ruled him out of the event. He had missed all of fight week due to a travel issue, but was expected to weigh in this morning before skipping the ceremonial weigh-ins due to his injury.
Last minute medical tests were done to try and make the fight happen, but HS now claims he couldn't have made it happen. He shared the news late Wednesday night in Qatar on his backup Instagram page HSDubaiTokky.
He posted a video of his girlfriend dining at Nobu, with the crude caption: “Quick nobu with @lillie_may6 in Qatar. I injured my shoulder last night strumming too hard on the narn, so unfortunately I can't cut tomorrow, big love.

Love Island star Moziah Pinder was called up at short notice to face HS, marking the second time he has faced a contestant from the hit British show. He showed up all fight week and appears to still be ready to fight on Thursday.
He shared a short video on his Instagram Story criticizing Sullivan for not appearing at the fight week events, saying: “Harrison Sullivan, you gotta stop this now, this princess move you're doing, you gotta stop this.
“Come fight me tomorrow, on paper you are 1-0 against me. So you have the advantage, right? Come on and fight me tomorrow. You have to stop this. You don't get to know the basics. How?'
Mom Taylor gave a health update on HSTikkyTokky hours before the fight retreat
Misfits Boxing boss Mams Taylor is one of Sullivan's most outspoken fans. Many viewers compare his regular defense of the controversial star to Dana White's sometimes comical relationship with Jon Jones, and he was eager to see his compatriot compete.

But speaking to Pro Boxing Fans earlier on Wednesday evening, Taylor explained: “To be honest, he has had a very, very bad injury and medical clearance is pending. But it doesn't look good… I'd say there's about an 87.4 percent chance he won't fight.”
The injury has not yet been disclosed, but Bloody Elbow understands it is legitimate according to sources within the promotion.
