Austin McBroom does not accept Tana Mongeau's criticism of his company. McBroom, a partial owner of Social Gloves Entertainment, was recently called out by Tana Mongeau for his involvement in a company that allegedly led to content creators not being paid.

Social Gloves Entertainment sponsored the YouTubers vs TikTokers boxing event that was held June 12th in Miami, Florida.

Since the boxing match that led to the overall victory for YouTubers, many of the participants of the events have come forward to state that they have not been paid.

On an episode of the BFFs podcast, Josh Richards claimed that he, along with artists, "didn't get paid, no one got paid I'm pretty sure." He then stated that he was sure Social Gloves had declared bankruptcy.

Social Gloves Entertainment came forward on June 25th to clear the air. In their announcement, they said that they "hired a leading accounting firm, as well as a first-class forensic auditor, to make sure that all amounts are properly accounted for."

The company then stated that they hope to pay every fighter and talent who participated in the boxing event.
