On the 14th of October, KSI will square off against Tommy Fury. Fury will be the first pro boxer that KSI will face in the ring. Before KSI, Fury fought YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. Ahead of the fight, Jake Paul declared that he would expose Fury’s lack of defense and head movement. Taking pride in fighting and defeating Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva, ‘The Problem Child’ announced there was “nothing” that ‘TNT’ could do to “stop” him.
Contrary to Paul’s expectations, Tommy Fury defeated ‘The Problem Child’ via a split decision. Following Paul’s loss to ‘TNT’ and in the wake of his victory against Joe Fournier, KSI called out Fury. He even mentioned that he would do what ‘The Problem Child’ “couldn’t“ – knock Fury out. In this manner, ahead of the bout on October 14th, KSI and Fury mentioned Jake Paul multiple times. Likewise, Paul, in an attempt to troll both KSI and Fury, called the duo his “fans“. However, it backfired on him.

While Jake Paul tried to troll KSI and Fury, a number of fans shared how they believed that the CEO of Misfits was better than ‘The Problem Child’. Paul’s reaction was to a post by the sports betting brand Betr on X, which announced that Fury and KSI mentioned Paul “24 times in 16 minutes.”
In the brief clip shared by Betr, besides calling Paul a bigger man, Fury said that he trained “a hundred times harder” for KSI than for Jake Paul. In reaction to the clip, Paul said, “I appreciate the love of my fans.”
