Deji appeared to be focused on business from the start of the four two-minute rounds.
However, the dynamic changed dramatically when Savage landed the first significant punch.
What should have been a straightforward matchup turned into a confusing spectacle.
Deji, making a comeback after an 18-month break, failed to impress against an opponent yet to secure a victory.
The 27-year-old, sibling of KSI, managed to bring his rival down in the third round, but the referee did not acknowledge it as a knockdown.
Savage fell hard as the intensity increased, asserting he had been injured before the bout was stopped.
Viewers on Misfits have slammed the fight as “rigged.”
One fan remarked: “This was clearly set up for Deji to notch another win. A disgraceful fight.”

A third observer stated: “Deji, you engineered your own fight.”

One more viewer noted: “Come on, brother. That was obviously orchestrated.”
A fifth user quipped: “And people still claim Jake Paul fights are rigged 🤣.”
Another exclaimed: “One of the weirdest knockouts in Misfits history.”
Deji seemed visibly troubled by the outcome and expressed his feelings on social media afterward.
He tweeted on X: “Disappointed with that performance, but we move forward!!
“Thanks to everyone who supported me.”
Savage, aged 26, now holds a record of 0-7 after tonight’s fight, while Deji improves his record to 3-4.
