“Never turn on your Muslim brothers” – World champ Devin Haney confronts controversial streamer N3on

With “crossovers” being all the craze, it’s no surprise that there’s a new one. First, it was Rumble streamer Sneako, whom Sean Strickland mercilessly obliterated in sparring. Now, Pro Boxing sensation Devin Haney has slammed “N3on” for labeling him as a “huge fan” of his. The former lightweight undisputed and current WBC junior welterweight champ took to X to clarify the matter.

The former case saw controversial streamer Sneako banned from UFC Apex. However, there’s no telling where this one would go. N3on, the Kick streamer, has alleged that he was “a little weirded out”  after “getting pressed” by Haney. Who subsequently asked him never to turn on his Muslim brothers. Here’s how Haney retorted to it:

Never said huge fan.. but everything else is correct. You asked me to be on your stream if I was [a] huge fan I would’ve went on.

In a recent video, the influencer shared a video that addressed the incident. Fan account @Kinck_Camp later reposted it, which Haney chanced upon soon enough. Notably, this isn’t the first time N3on has gone viral for his take on something MMA-related. He went viral post-UFC 296 for alleged admittance into the promotion.

With the likes of IShowSpeed and Adin Ross reverting to the soccer/rap industry, the streamer had chosen MMA.

In the latest pinch, the infamous streamer claimed that recently the MisFits team and KSI reached out to him to fight. His aspiration to do Floyd Mayweather-like PPV buyouts because of controversies around him raised a few eyes. The prospect of him butting heads with Devin Haney ought to raise a few more.

N3on calls Devin Haney a fan, pressing him on with advisement

With crossover collaborations taking the cake, no one would have ever guessed that these two people would cross paths. But they did. In a recent pinch, Devin Haney’s response to N3on, a popular Twitch streamer and YouTuber, has gone rapidly viral.

Being a proactive practicing Muslim, Haney and the Kick streamer seemingly glanced upon each other at a mosque. Which consequently left N3on shaken by the interaction. Additionally, here’s what the video clip has him saying about the matter:

Um, Devin Haney pressed me at the mosque...I mean, he's going to see this clip. I don't know if you were trying to press me bro, but, um, it was- I don't know, bro. I was like, I was a little weirded out, bro...Haney walks up, acting like a fan with his security in the back. He's like, 'Yo, huge fan, bro'. Then, he walks away. Then he comes back and he's like, 'By the way, never turn on your Muslim brothers.' And then turned his back and walked away right away. I don't know what they meant but I got scared f*ck, bro.

There’s no telling if this is a PR move to boost an interaction or a genuine one. With Jake Paul, Logan Paul, KSI, iShowSpeed, Sneako, and even Bryce Hall all having an influencer background, N3on might be next. With unhinged former champ Sean Strickland challenging him next, Hall recently told Inside Fighting that not all combatants are keen on influencers transitioning to the combat sphere.

This might ring even more true for Haney if he were to further duke it out with N3on. Based on the merits of the streamer’s claims and reputation, there’s no telling if such a face-off would ever actually happen.
