Not only does KSI compete in the squared circle but he is also the CEO of ‘MISFITS,’ a boxing promotion. Back in August of this year, the British influencer-turned-boxer took to Twitter to slam Slim for not fighting Salt Papi. However, in a recent turn of events, the 29-year-old influencer agreed to fight Papi on the ‘MISFITS 009,’ undercard.` Intriguingly, KSI is headlining the card and is facing Tommy Fury. The 30-year-old is a heavy underdog going into the bout.
Just a week away from the bout, Slim in an interview could not help but slam KSI for his initial comments about him trying to dodge a fight with Papi. So without further ado, let’s take a look at what he had to say for the CEO of MISFITS boxing.

Slim claps back at KSI for past remarks
Papi and Slim are some of the biggest names in influencer boxing. Although there is a weight disparity between them, Papi appeared keen on facing Slim. Subsequently, MISFITS attempted to make an offer to Slim. However, KSI alleged that Slim ducked the fight against Papi and even called him a “B*tch,” On X, he stated, “Slim has officially ducked Salt Papi lmao. What a b***h. He even asked to fight him at 165, Salt Papi said sure. Now Slim has gone missing. Pathetic. @SlimmySlim94”

However, ahead of his bout, in a promo for ‘MISFITS,’ Slim was asked to weigh in on the comments made by KSI. In response, he went at him. He was very upset and expressed his desire to see him get hurt against Fury. However, he did mention that he continues to wish him well for the fight and wants him to win.
He stated, “I hope Tommy Fury gives him a nice little jab to the face for that one. I hope he wins though. KSI, I still hope you win. But I hope you eat a big jab just for what you just said over here. Maybe a big 1-2 or some sh*t. I hope you stumble.” He adds, “I hope you still win but I hope you eat a right hand. Because what you said right here, you deserve a big, smack.”
