Fousey was banned for the second time in a row, community state their thoughts
There were two speculations for the ban one being Fousey’s reckless driving. Some people thought it was because of the included threats in the stream while he was calling Daniel Michael “Keemstar” Keem.
But Fousey later announced on X (Twitter) that reckless driving and using a phone while driving on stream was the reason behind his ban. He also proceeded to share the clip. The post stated, “The clip that got me banned”.

A few users were blaming Twitch for the ban. According to them, Twitch was too soft to ban a person for such minute reasons. X (Twitter) user Troggy was quick to respond and posted that he/she will not let his/her mother drive on the same road Fousey was driving.
