Ban-J approached Yun Hyung-bin with aggressive tactics, but was soon hit with a lightning-fast counter from Yun Hyung-bin's 'eagle eye' and ended the match with pounding. It was a match where Yun Hyung-bin's beast-like instincts shone brightly. Yun Hyung-bin has been a fighter who has trained in mixed martial arts for a long time as a comedian.

After the match, Yun Hyung-bin said, "I really wanted to win, and I feel like that desire has been fulfilled."

He continued, "Now that I’ve finished, I hope my wife and family don’t worry too much," adding, "This was a retirement match, but the coach supported me well like one body. I’m very grateful." He then expressed his retirement feeling by stating, "I’m putting down the gloves here, but I will always support you." Additionally, regarding the bet of deleting channels with Ban-J, he noted, "I thought about it, but deleting it seems a bit much, so from now on, I will upload my videos on (Ban-J's channel)."

Particularly, there was a sensational condition that the losing player must delete their YouTube channel, attracting attention.
