IShowSpeed’s claims ‘I am done playing’

During a recent Rumble live stream featuring IShowSpeed, Kai Cenat, and a new British girl, the topic of soccer came up in their conversation. Cenat, particularly intrigued, inquired about her interest and whether she enjoyed playing the sport.

As Cenat awaited the British girl's response, IShowSpeed intervened, announcing his decision to retire from soccer. This caught the girl's attention, and she asked Speed, "You don’t wanna play?" Without hesitation, Speed affirmed, "No, I’m done. I retired, I’m done playing football."

The girl promptly asked if he preferred watching soccer on platforms like YouTube, to which Speed responded, "Yeah, I'm watching it, but I am not playing anymore."

This exchange prompted some teasing directed at Speed. Many people jokingly commented that this decision would be a relief for everyone's eyes, while others celebrated it as 'good news'.

After watching the livestream clip on Twitter, many users and fans have shared their comments on IShowSpeed's decision.
