Austin McBroom mobbed by hundreds of fans while demolishing a Bryce Hall piñata

Hundreds of fans flocked to Beverly Hills to see Austin McBroom as the hype around his boxing match with TikTok star Bryce Hall continues.

Footage obtained by The Hollywood Fix show hundreds of fans – many of which were young children – congregating around Austin and his wife, Catherine McBroom, as he prepared to hit a piñata decorated with pictures of his future boxing opponent, Bryce Hall. YouTuber and rapper DDG, who is billed to box TikTok star Nate Wyatt at the ‘YouTubers vs TikTokers’ boxing event, was also present.

Dozens of people in the large crowd could be seen pushing and shoving in order to get a better view of McBroom beating the piñata. Throughout the footage, Austin and security staff can be heard telling the crowd to back up before several police motorbikes appeared to break up the raucous scene, which took place on May 30.

Earlier this month, Austin and Bryce finally met face-to-face for the first time, but the meeting soon descended into a full-on brawl wherein McBroom claims that Hall tried to break his ankle.
