ALEX WASSABI has BEATEN Deji in the showdown of the YouTubers.
A spectator has jumped into the ring during the second round and attempted to hit Wassabi but was pushed out of the ring.
The grudge match was played out at Ovo Wembley Arena in front of a sell-out crowd, after some thrilling undercard bouts.
Local boy Deji was left dejected when only one judge gave a decision in his favour, while the other two judges went with American Wassabi.
Anthony Joshua and brother KSI were in the crowd cheering him on but ultimately Deji, 25, couldn't get the job done.
On the undercard, Ryan Taylor was disqualified for a disgraceful headbutt on his opponent DK Money.
The bizarre scenes were even then REPEATED as Vitaly was headbutted by Kristen Hanby.

Harsh treatment for ring invader
The fan who invaded Deji's fight against Wassabi was left nursing a sore head after his rash dash into the ring.
His fame was short-lived as security chased him into the corner before roughly ejecting him from the proceedings.
But not before one guard hit him over the head with a BAR STOOL.

Good morning!
It's the morning after the night before and Deji will be looking back on last night with some regret after he lost another fight, this time with Alex Wassabi.
It was a good night for the American, who didn't have to do much but look the busier man in the ring in order to get the victory.
Anthony Joshua was in attendance for the fight, showing that YouTube boxing is alive and well!
The evening didn't go without some controversy, however, as the ring was invaded by a fan during the main event.
Needless to say, he was thrown out of the ring quicker than he got in it.

Report
Deji suffered defeat in the boxing ring – but only after a fan invaded it.
The Londoner – real name Oladeji Daniel Olatunji – had twice fought before, losing the both.
He was in 2018 beaten by Jake Paul and then last June by TikToker Vinnie Hacker.
And after five rounds, it was a similar story for Deji, despite clearly improving his boxing skills and fitness.
But the bout descended into chaos during round two when a fame-hungry supporter ran into the ring.
It is unclear why he did so other than to try and go viral – but was all over the internet for all the wrong reasons.
He was embarrassingly dumped out of the ring head first and his actions caused the fight to be momentarily delayed.
When it did resume, Deji showed off tricky head movement, slipping punches but failing to counter.
Wassabi lacked any real technique but was more relentless than his British opponent.
It was enough to see him win a split-decision on the scorecards, much to the disappointment of Deji's fans inside the Wembley Arena.
