About
Happy Punch Promotions is an influencer boxing promotional company founded by Keemstar and FouseyTUBE in late 2021. Since its inauguration, the Happy Punch social media accounts have been used to share influencer boxing news. Throughout 2022, the company signed a number of influencers as fighters, including iShowSpeed, JiDion, Salt Papi and Sam Hyde.
History
Before it was owned by Keemstar and FouseyTUBE, the Happy Punch name appears to have been owned by a creator named Purzuh, as evidenced by a post on the @HappyPunch TikTok[1] page on April 17th, 2021. Purzuh currently works as a content manager for the company.[2]
On August 11th, 2021, FouseyTUBE posted a now-deleted video where he tours Keemstar's house. Later in the video, they attend a fan meet-up and promotional event at a local bar in Buffalo, New York where the two formally announce their new boxing promotion company Happy Punch Promotions. Although the video was deleted and does not appear to have been reuploaded anywhere, the H3 Podcast reacted to it in February 2022 (shown below).
