A chaotic clip from a party hosted by Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is making the rounds, and this time it involves former UFC fighter Tiki Ghosn and influencer boxer Deen The Great. The original social posts called it a punch. The video tells a different story. It looks like a tight elbow, thrown at close range, after a heated face to face exchange that was already escalating.

The setting was loose. Cameras were rolling. Trash talk was flowing. And the tension was obvious before anything physical happened.
Here’s the exchange captured right before the strike:
- Deen: “I don’t like you at all though. Yeah, I said that.”
- Ghosn: “Are you the guy that got slapped on video?”
- Deen: “I did, but I’ll slap the shit outta you though.”
- Ghosn: “Oh you will?”
- Deen: “Yeah.”
- Deen: “I’ll make you another clip. I’ll do that.”
- Ghosn: “Seriously?”
- Deen: “I’ll do that.”
Seconds later, Ghosn fires a short elbow. A delightful compact elbow, the kind every MMA fighter drills thousands of times. Deen stumbles back and tries to move forward again, but people separate them almost immediately.
Who Is Tiki Ghosn And What Is His MMA Background
Tiki Ghosn is not some random guy at a party. He fought professionally in MMA from the late 1990s through 2009. He competed in the UFC during an era when the promotion was still gritty and stacked with veterans.
His record is not Hall of Fame material, but he shared the cage with serious names. He fought Robbie Lawler at UFC 40 and Chris Lytle at UFC 47. Both were losses, but they show the level he reached.
Since retiring, Ghosn has remained around the sport as a manager and industry figure. He understands cameras. He understands viral moments. He also understands how damaging a well placed elbow can be.

Deen The Great, whose real name is Nurideen Shabazz, is part of the influencer boxing scene. He built a following through social media and crossover boxing events. He mainly talks and provokes.
Ghosn’s first line in the exchange referenced something important. “Are you the guy that got slapped on video?” That was not random.
Deen had already gone viral for being slapped by powerlifter, Larry Wheels in a previous incident. That clip circulated heavily online. So when he said, “I’ll make you another clip,” he was leaning into that history. He was framing this as content. As another viral moment.
This time, the other person in front of him was a trained former UFC fighter handing him more than a slap.
Mike Tyson Quote About Social Media Disrespect Feels Relevant
There is a famous Mike Tyson quote that keeps getting reposted whenever situations like this happen. Tyson once said, “Social media made y’all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.”
You can argue about context. You can debate who escalated what. But the dynamic fits. Online bravado spilling into real life.
Deen was not typing behind a screen. He was standing inches from someone with years of fight experience. He made it clear he was willing to create another viral clip. Ghosn answered in the language he knows best.
