Alex Wassabi, 32, is a popular YouTube star who has found a lot of success for himself in making videos.
Currently, Wassabi is single and focuses on keeping his channel up and running, with 11.5 million subscribers following him on his life journey. He began making videos for YouTube in the late noughties with his friend Roi Fabito when they were in middle school.

Alongside his YouTube career, Wassabi has begun his journey into the boxing scene, as many content creators have been doing over the last few years. Logan and Jake Paul made the transition into the boxing world back in 2019 and their success has spurred more creators to test their hands in the sport.
