Unexpected Twist: Ed Matthews Knocked Out of Ring by Luis Pineda's Powerful Blow at Misfits Boxing 12

TikTok sensation Ed Matthews experienced a devastating knockout during his headline bout against mystery opponent Luis Pineda at Misfits Boxing 12 in Leeds’ First Direct Arena. The event took an unexpected turn as three ‘mystery’ opponents entered the ring before Pineda was revealed as the true adversary. Eager to assert himself, Matthews aggressively approached Pineda at the start of the fight.

Although Pineda was dropped in the first round, the referee deemed it a push rather than a knockdown. As the second round commenced, Matthews found himself fatigued and on the defensive, absorbing a barrage of punches from Pineda. The climax came when Matthews was forced into the ropes and ultimately knocked out of the ring by a powerful right hand, sending him crashing onto the judges’ table.

Fortunately, Matthews managed to regain his footing and walk back to his locker room unassisted. Pineda celebrated on the top rope, taunting Matthews’ corner. KSI, the head of Misfits and YouTube sensation, expressed astonishment at the knockout, exclaiming, “He knocked him outside of the ring onto the table, what the hell! Pineda is back, I’m still in shock!”
