The highly anticipated boxing match between Colombian influencers Yina Calderón and Andrea Valdiri took place on October 18, 2025, as part of the Stream Fighters 4 event, organized by streamer Westcol, at the MedPlus Coliseum in Bogotá.
The fight arose after months of rivalry on social media, which included innuendos and comparisons between the two. However, the fight lasted only about 20 seconds. Calderón entered the ring but offered no resistance to Valdiri’s punches, prompting her to signal the referee to stop the fight.
Valdiri was declared the winner and received the belt, while the crowd reacted with boos and threw objects, expressing their frustration at the abrupt ending.
Yina Calderón has publicly explained her decision, stating that she showed up to fulfill her contractual obligations but felt overwhelmed upon entering the ring, claiming it was filled with her “haters,” allegedly brought by Westcol.
She further alleged that Westcol paid for her to be escorted by ambulance after the fight. In a live stream, she joked about being “bruised” and “exhausted” from the brief encounter, while in another video, she downplayed the event by cooking and mocking its impact.
Before the event, Calderón expressed concerns about possible favoritism on the part of the organizers, issues with weigh-in rules, and transparency.
There is speculation that she started the fight quietly to avoid a no-show penalty, but that she had no real intention of competing, especially after learning it was the main event; she stated that she would have demanded more money (her participation fee exceeded 70 million Colombian pesos, or approximately US$16,500).
The central issue revolves around a contractual clause that penalizes early withdrawal or abandonment of the fight. Rumors and expert analysis indicate that Calderón could face a fine of approximately 196 million Colombian pesos (approximately $46,000 at the current exchange rate), applicable to any of the participants for premature withdrawal.
A similar fine (approximately $50,000 or $192 million Colombian pesos) was mentioned for a no-show, which Calderón apparently avoided by starting the fight. Legal experts, including attorneys Jessi Santodomingo and Leonardo Ariza, argue that this constitutes a breach of contract, as partial compliance (showing but not fighting) can still generate penalties, including damages for sponsors, ticket buyers, and global viewers.
Valdiri has publicly stated that Calderón will have to pay, adding sarcasm to Calderón’s well-known financial controversies that could complicate the payment. Impacts
Beyond the potential fine, Calderón secured her base pay (more than 70 million Colombian pesos), but the sanction could offset much of that profit. This comes on top of her ongoing public financial scrutiny, which could deplete her resources as an influencer and DJ.
The withdrawal sparked widespread backlash, with the public expressing their anger through boos and criticism, and social media was divided between critics who called it a “failure” or “scam” and advocates who supported her right to suspend it for personal reasons.
This amplified the perception of drama at influencer events, questioning their legitimacy and organization. Valdiri gained public sympathy and momentum, positioning herself as the resilient winner.
Stream Fighters 4 faced criticism for the lack of transparency in rules and contracts, which left sponsors and attendees feeling disadvantaged. This highlights the risks of celebrity-driven shows, where advertising often outweighs delivery, potentially deterring future participation or sponsorships.
Experts agree on potential liability for breach of contract, including fines and damages. However, enforcement depends on the exact wording of the contract; willful abandonment could exacerbate her case, but a final ruling has not been reported until October 21, 2025.
Calderón reported minor physical effects (bruises) but has sought new opportunities, announcing her participation in the reality show “La Mansion de Luinny” in the Dominican Republic, presenting herself as the number one influencer in the aftermath. This could increase her visibility through the controversy or alienate her fans and collaborators.
The incident fueled ongoing disputes, with Valdiri insisting on a forced resolution to their issues, and Westcol expressing his fury. This could lead to stricter contracts at similar events to prevent such disruptions.
The episode underscores the high-risk nature of influencer boxing events, where contracts mandate participation to protect investments but cannot guarantee genuine competition.
While Calderón’s strategy may have minimized some risks (e.g., avoiding a no-show fine), it is likely to generate legal scrutiny and a substantial, though unconfirmed, penalty.
Ultimately, it reflects broader problems in the influencer economy: the reliance on drama to generate engagement, the potential for exploitation, and the fine line between entertainment and obligation.
Calderón appears to be moving forward undeterred, leveraging interest for new projects, while Valdiri emerges stronger. Experts emphasize that without contractual transparency, these controversies will persist in Colombia’s growing streaming fight scene.
