Streamer Ludwig Banned From Instagram Following Fight Picture
Ludwig Anders Ahgren has been slapped with an Instagram instaban, after the popular streamer posted a seemingly inappropriate picture from the Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather fight. The June 6 fight saw the YouTube sensation and boxing champion lace up their gloves and duke it out in a fight for the ages. Controversially, neither side won, but both walked away with millions in their pocket.
There was a star-studded audience at the Hard Rock Stadium in Florida, with Ludwig being in attendance. Fresh off his record-breaking Twitch subathon, Ludwig was there to watch the "Bragging Rights" fight. Stepping into the ring (not to fight), Ludwig took a comical picture that has landed him in some hot water.
Why is Ludwig banned from Instagram?
Posting on Twitter, Ludwig joked, "Met Joe Rogan at the fight". Although the 25-year-old wasn't actually posing alongside the UFC commentator, he was snapped alongside a friend, with the pair poking their fingers through the zipper of their pants. It was just a bit of a blue joke, but Instagram clearly wasn't laughing. When Ludwig shared the same image to the social media platform, Instagram quickly gave him a week-long ban for presumably going against its terms and conditions.
It's unclear exactly why Ludwig was banned, but it's likely to do with the image being deemed inappropriate. Even though it's obvious Ludwig and friend "Slime" aren't touching penises, Instagram likely deemed it against its community guidelines. Instead of just removing the post, the fact Ludwig has been banned for a week suggests it might not be his first offense.
When will Ludwig stop being banned from Instagram?
At the time of writing, a censored version of Ludwig in the ring is on his Instagram, but the offending post has been removed. With the seven-day ban expected to end on June 14, he doesn't have long left. Interestingly, Ahgren's ban comes just days after girlfriend QTCinderella was also banned from the site.
According to reports QTCinderella and WillNeff are currently banned from Instagram when the pair were mass reported in the midst of drama with Adin Ross. Things bizarrely boiled over after a heated game of Super Mario 64 speedrunning, with QT writing, "Yo Instagram, please help me and my friend WillNeff,” she wrote. “We got banned due to mass reporting from very cool kids. We actually did nothing wrong besides play instruments in high school. Please help". Despite Ludwig's ban not being related to the above drama, it's not been a good week for the celebrity pairing.
