Just moments after declaring his ambition to become UFC champion, social media star N3on found himself pleading for his life in a sparring session.
In a recent video, the controversial streamer trained alongside 20-year-old bantamweight contender Raul Rosas Jr. The duo went through some striking drills and submission techniques, with Rosas offering to show N3on what it feels like to be choked out.
While influencers have previously been willing to participate in such skits, including the infamous moment when Colby Covington put rapper Lil Pump to sleep multiple times, N3on was visibly concerned. He pleaded with Rosas not to target his neck, fearing he could die if left unconscious for even a moment.

During a recent stream, N3on visited a branch of the UFC Gym, excitedly sharing his commitment to training hard with his viewers. He confidently announced that he planned to become the featherweight world champion within the next three to five years, despite a few missteps in his knowledge.
N30n declared before mistakenly claimed that the featherweight division was the lightest division in the UFC;
“My gym journey starts today,”
“I am going to be the featherweight champion of the UFC in approximately the next three-five years, bro.”
He then met with bantamweight star Raul Rosa Jr,m one of the youngest fighters to ever compete in the octagon. The two engaged in some light-hearted conversation before stepping into the cage for some training. While N3on’s confidence was high, he would soon learn that training with a professional fighter isn’t as easy as it looks.

However, when it came time for N3on to get physical in the cage, his confidence quickly turned to panic. He began screaming about his underlying health issues, claiming that even being placed in a simple submission hold could be dangerous. N3on insisted that due to a heart condition, being choked out for even a moment could potentially kill him. As Rosas moved in for a choke, N3on frantically pleased, 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.”
Eventually Rosas allowed him to get up, and N3on, still shaken, exclaimed:
“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 suggested the clip of him being choked out would’ve gone viral, N3on quickly shot back, claiming such a stunt would stop his heart.
