YouTube sensation IShowSpeed just proved speed isn’t just in his name. On June 11, 2025, the 20‑year‑old streamer (real name Darren Watkins Jr.) went head‑to‑head with viral fitness guru Ashton Hall in a live stream showdown—and won all four races  .

Starting on grass with a roughly 50‑yard straightaway, Speed cruised to victory in the first two races. Hall, a former college football player turned fitness influencer known for his intense morning routines, demanded a rematch on pavement—and Speed won again. A third race ended in a tie, but in the fourth and final round, Speed crossed the line first once more  .

After his fourth win, Speed didn’t hold back in calling Hall “Ashton Fraud” and telling him to “delete your Instagram”  .

Hall acknowledged the losses during a Kick livestream, admitting Speed beat him “fair and square.” He explained that he “slipped” in the first race but still wanted rematches—and results showed Speed remained unmatched  .

Fans and sports media quickly reacted on X, TikTok, and Instagram, amplifying clips of Hall’s missteps and Speed’s dominance. Comments ranged from mockery of Hall’s face‑plant to praise for Speed’s surprising athleticism—considering his self‑admitted junk food habits .

This isn’t Speed’s first athletic outing—he’s previously raced Olympic champion Noah Lyles, competed in a 40‑yard dash at the NFL Draft event, and challenged KSI, Jake Paul, and others in athletic contests  . But beating a fitness influencer like Hall four times in a row marks a new milestone for the streamer’s athletic credibility.

Hall took the loss in stride, remaining respectful of Speed’s performance. Meanwhile, Speed’s followers are celebrating his feat—and challenging more names to races. Could a boxing match or official track meet be next? The internet’s watching.
