Just minutes after declaring that he wanted to be UFC champion, social media star N3on was left begging for his life in sparring.
The controversial streamer hit the gym with 20-year-old bantamweight contender Raul Rosas Jr in a video yesterday where the pair trained together. They went over some striking drills and submissions, before Rosas offered to show N3on how it feels to be put to sleep.
In other skits such as this, influencers have been willing to be choked out perhaps most infamously when Colby Covington put rapper Lil Pump out multiple times in a few minutes. But N3on begged Rosas not to go near his neck, insisting that he could die if he was left unconscious for even a second.

N3on claims he will be UFC champion within 3-5 years
At the start of his recent stream, N3on visited a branch of the UFC Gym, letting his viewers know that everybody in attendance was training hard. He then claimed that within a few years of work, he planned on being featherweight world champion.
“My gym journey starts today,” he confidently declared, before falsely claiming that featherweight was the lightest division in the UFC. “I am going to be the featherweight champion of the UFC in approximately the next three-five years bro.”
He then met with current bantamweight star Raul Rosas Jr, who is famously one of the youngest fighters to ever compete in the octagon. The pair engaged in some light-hearted discussion, before getting into the cage for some training.

However, by the time he actually got physical in the cage, N3on was quickly screaming about his underlying health issues that stopped him from even being placed in a submission hold. He claimed that due to a heart problem, even being put to sleep for a second could kill him.
And as Rosas looked for a choke, he begged for his life, telling the 20-year-old: “Help, I can’t, I actually got medical problems… If I pass out I could die, I’m telling you right now, my mom’s going to kill me, dead a**, you scared the f*** out of me.”
Rosas eventually allowed him up, with N3on adding: “Holy s***, I thought you were dead a** going to do it. You’re real as f*** bro, holy f***. I need to catch my breath.” When fans noted that the clip of him going to sleep would have gone viral, he declared that such a stunt would stop his heart.
