KSI found himself at the center of numerous verbal attacks after his recent fight with Joe Fournier. The British social media sensation is one of the most popular influencer boxers. And he has inspired many influencers to tighten their boxing gloves. The 29-year-old is no different from this phrase – ‘Practise makes a man perfect’. He recently took to social media to share a training clip for his fans to see. But it seems like even though he wanted to show him working the bag, the fans are fixated on his controversial win over Fournier.
MisFits Boxing took to Twitter to share the training clip. However, the fans did not interpret the video as just a training clip, as many of them reminded the Brit about his fight against Fournier. And, the way he won that fight.

In the training clip, the 29-year-old is seen working the punching bag. And he is seen landing three punch combos as he is guided by his trainer, who is also the one recording the video. KSI is seen practicing his right and left hooks on the bag. One thing which stands out in the video is the focus the YouTuber is showing while training.
As KSI lands his punches on the bag, his trainer can be heard praising him as he compliments his punches as “beautiful.” But being praised doesn’t mean his trainer will go easy on him as he tells him to continue punching. The video was uploaded with the caption, “@KSI putting in the work.”
KSI last fought Joe Fournier on May 13, finishing ‘The Billionnaire’ with a controversial shot. The knockout which seemingly was caused due to an ‘illegal elbow’ from KSI, led to the fight being ruled a ‘no contest’ later. And it seems like the fans have not forgotten that yet. One fan joked about KSI’s training clip and said, “gotta practice that elbow.”

Another fan slammed the YouTuber for his form and has some suggestions for the 29-year-old.
Wtf is that form? I’m not even hating cause I like jj, but why’s the chin so open and why do both feet come off the ground with the left hook? If he throws and misses that hook, the momentum’s gonna take him off balance or worse get caught by a counter with the momentum
