Clersss, the Spanish content creator known as Clara Merino, urged fans to watch her first boxing match at La Velada del Año VI in Seville. Ahead of the event, she said she had completed six months of daily training and was set to face Natalia MX in the card’s second bout.
Her appeal mixed humor with seriousness. In a video, Clersss told followers not to let refreshments or smoking distract them, and warned late arrivals not to miss her fight at Estadio La Cartuja. She acknowledged that early bouts might not feature the evening’s biggest names, but emphasized the preparation behind her debut.
Clersss also asked fans to stay in their seats rather than leave for refreshments or smoke breaks while she was in the ring. Her point was that a bout’s place on the card did not diminish the physical and mental commitment required to reach it.
La Velada del Año VI was held on July 25, 2026, at Estadio La Cartuja, where Ibai Llanos organized and presented the event. The sixth edition featured 10 boxing matches involving 20 internet personalities and entertainers. Musical performances were part of the programme, which ran for more than eight hours.
The event drew about 80,000 spectators, and its livestream reached a peak of 8.73 million simultaneously connected devices. Later coverage cited more than 34 million unique devices across distribution channels. The event streamed on Twitch. YouTube and TikTok also carried it. MarketingDirecto reported that available tickets sold out in slightly more than two hours, a measure of the scale of the stadium production.
La Velada grew from events in smaller venues in Barcelona. It later expanded to Badalona and Madrid before becoming a major live production at a stadium in Seville. The sixth edition’s 10 bouts represented an increase from the seven fights at the previous event. El Colombiano reported that Natalia MX was among the night’s winners, placing the matchup on a card that drew a large audience in person and online.
Known for comedy and lifestyle content, Clersss brought her online following into a live sporting setting. La Velada’s combination of creator-led boxing and music has helped attract viewers beyond traditional boxing audiences. Unexpected moments can shift attention across the card, much as a surprise result can change the focus of a major sporting competition. A recent cycling upset showed how early-stage competitors can capture attention when least expected, a dynamic Clersss hoped to recreate in Seville.
For participants such as Clersss, the format offers a chance to reach new audiences while putting months of preparation on display. Her message to fans centered on a simple request: give every bout attention, regardless of its position on the programme.
