American YouTuber IShowSpeed has finally realized that he has been tricked by tennis star Novak Djokovic. Speed, whose real name is Darren Watkins Jr., rose to fame due to his obsession with Cristiano Ronaldo.
Speed has even met with Ronaldo and several other soccer stars. He was also recently invited to the 2023 Ballon d’Or ceremony. However, he didn’t realize during the ceremony that he was lied to by Djokovic.
During the 2023 Ballon d’Or ceremony, IShowSpeed was the subject of a brutal prank played by Novak Djokovic. However, owing to the lack of his soccer and tennis knowledge, Speed couldn’t realize he was being pranked upon. However, a few days later, IShowSpeed was reminded about the incident on live stream by a fan. It was at that moment that he finally realized that Djokovic had fooled him.

Reacting to the incident, Speed exclaimed, “Why did this dude f**king lied to me, bro?” Despite his annoyance with Djokovic’s joke, Speed didn’t fail to acknowledge Novak as the best tennis player in the world.
Although Speed did once again embarrass himself with his comment about the golf legend Tiger Woods. While speaking about Djokovic, Speed called Tiger Woods a tennis player, and once again, was heavily trolled by the fans.
Novak Djokovic pretended to be an AC Milan player
At the 2023 Ballon d’Or ceremony, Novak Djokovic deceived IShowSpeed into believing that he was an AC Milan player. After not recognizing Djokovic, Speed asked the tennis star who he was and mentioned that he looked familiar. However, Djokovic with a rather sly smile on his face replied that he’s a new player for the Italian side AC Milan.
Playing on Speed’s gullibility, Djokovic further continued to joke and said that he’s yet to make his debut. Lastly, the seven-time Wimbledon winner also added that he was looking to score a hat trick in his next match.
While Novak might have fooled Speed, he once again displayed his love for AC Milan with his joke. The 36-year-old star has admitted in the past that he’s a huge supporter of the Rossoneri.
He has previously admitted that his favorite sport after tennis is soccer. Moreover, he also revealed that he is good friends with the former AC Milan star Zlatan Ibrahimovic and he even expressed his desire to see Milan win the Scudetto last year. Last but not least, the 24-times-Grand Slam winner has also been spotted previously watching his favorite soccer club in action at San Siro.
