The Event of the Year 4, hosted by content creator Ibai Llanos, followed a weigh-in ceremony that brought surprises and featured changes to one of its most energetic segments, the King of the Ring. This year, the event set a new viewership record. One of the most surprising aspects of this digital event, streamed on Ibai Llanos’ Twitch channel from Bilbao, Spain, was that it surpassed last year’s peak viewership of 3,356,074 simultaneous viewers even before the red carpet.
The singer performed ahead of the showdown between Argentine streamer Carreraaa and Spanish streamer Agustín51, ending her set with the song «Me Voy» (I’m leaving).
In this match, both fighters gave their best, but by the final round, both seemed quite tired. The outcome was determined by a unanimous decision in favor of Agustín51, with Carreraaa attributing his loss to a hand injury.
