Why isn’t there a YouTuber match? I spent a year and a half preparing, it stopped making sense to me, says Expl0ited
A year and a half ago Oktagon planned to make a duel between two Youtubers, namely Vlada and Expl0ited. However, due to the coronavirus, the fight was constantly postponed, whereupon it was ended by the Slovak influencer, who no longer made sense.

The YouTuber war is over. And sooner than it started. The Oktagon organization has announced that Peter “Expl0ited” has withdrawn from the fight Altof.
The possible cancellation of this fight has been talked about for quite some time, especially since it kept getting pushed back. The two YouTubers have been training for basically a year and a half. Why did the Slovakian decide to withdraw from the fight after such a long time?
“I didn’t want to. I devoted a year and a half to preparation. It’s time to move on. This stopped making sense to me. I want to talk more about all this and the behind-the-scenes stuff in some of my videos,” he told Refresher.
So now he has to figure out who will fill in for him. Octagon will surely want at least Vladia, who has been working on himself all along, to show up.
“I found out a little bit early so I wouldn’t train, but I found out too late for the way it was being handled at the time. For a year and a half I was working on something that is now a complete unknown as to how it was going to be. I would have wanted a fight for sure. But now it’s also a question of money. I’ve been working on something for a year and a half.
We’re all stuck in it because of the covid. It was shifting. There was a budget and it was budgeted somehow. Now it’s dragged out in a completely different way than it was supposed to. We’re dealing with some options, both dates and opponents, which I can’t completely bring up yet,” Vlad told The Mag.
