Most spectators believed Jake Paul would be his opponent given how frequently the two have trash-talked one other in the past. The starfighter revealed his intentions to Paul during KSI’s most recent concert tour, according to The Sun.
It’s incredibly strange because a lot of nonsense claims that “He’s not going to box again, he’ll stay with music,” when in reality, I definitely could have. However, I retorted, “Nah, brother, I need to wake Jake Paul up.” So you can be sure that that will happen, said KSI.
The YouTuber displayed his muscles while performing on stage, according to the website. He had gained weight since his last fight, but he was now fitter and appeared ready to enter the ring.
Previous Boxing Wins for KSI
In a match against internet rival Joe Weller in February 2018, KSI made his ring debut and defeated him through a third-round TKO.
Later that year, he engaged in a six-round white-collar draw with Logan Paul. One judge scored the fight 58-57 for KSI, while the other two scored it 57-57, ending in a majority tie. A rematch was planned for November 9, 2019, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles because there was still a lot of animosity between the two parties.
The couple decided to join the professional ranks after they ran into each other again in their rematch. Once more, all six rounds were used. But when Logan has penalized two points for hitting KSI in the back of the head in the fourth round, KSI was proclaimed the victor.
The judges’ final scores were 56-55, 57-54, and 55-56 in favor of KSI. Although he hasn’t boxed since his triumph, he was supposed to take on Jake, his brother.
Jake Paul Recommends KSI, Alex Wassabi
KSI did not specify who he was up against, but Jake told The Mirror that it might not be Alex Wassabi despite popular belief to the contrary. Jake is reportedly stepping in to help with the event talks. Wassabi and the British YouTuber had long been rivals, but their animosity intensified after the American YouTuber defeated Deji Olatunji, the British YouTuber’s younger brother, in his boxing debut in March 2022.
“The August KSI conflict is our target.” I think there is a good chance of that. He merely enters the boxing ring from KSI’s point of view. Jake told The Mirror, “He’s been talking about it for what feels like years.”
Jake remarked that if KSI put down the microphone and picked up the boxing gloves, his ego would probably shatter. Furthermore, the unbeaten YouTuber turned boxer thinks that KSI is trying to make money off of boxing because his rap career is failing.
He said that the numbers were declining because KSI had run out of features after paying every rapper in the industry to perform one for him. Jake claimed that no one was talking about his music anymore and that his monthly Spotify listeners were steadily declining.
