Deji seemed focused on his career at the start of the four two-minute rounds.
But the match shifted when Savage landed the first notable punch.
What should have been a simple bout spiraled into turmoil.
Deji, returning after an 18-month hiatus, underperformed against the winless Savage.
The 27-year-old, sibling of KSI, did manage to knock his rival down in the third round, but it wasn’t counted as such.
Savage dramatically fell to the floor under pressure, alleging an injury before the match was halted.
Viewers on Misfits have condemned the contest as “rigged.”
One user commented: “This was made to give Deji another victory. Truly an embarrassing fight.”

He posted on X: “Disappointed with that performance, but we move forward!!
“Thank you to everyone who has supported me.”
Savage, 26, now has a record of 0-7 following this fight, while Deji improves to 3-4.
