When Logan Paul lost against KSI in 2019, it marked the beginning of the feud between Jake Paul and KSI. The elder Paul brother asked Jake Paul to defeat the British Youtuber-turned-boxer and redeem his loss. It’s been almost 4 years since this fight, but the fans haven’t gotten even a glimpse of their highly anticipated bout. After 2019, KSI took a long break from boxing as he wanted to focus on his music career, but then, in 2022, he made a comeback.
He fought two 3-round fights against a Brit rapper, Swarmz, and a Mexican boxer, Luis Alcaraz Pineda. Much recently, he’s fought against the boxer who handed over Jake Paul his first defeat, Tommy Fury. But KSI also lost to him by a majority decision, while Paul was defeated by a split decision. So, after the same results, Jake Paul’s older brother, Logan Paul, thinks this is the best time to have a fight between them.

Logan Paul talks about the dream matchup between KSI and Jake Paul
Logan Paul and KSI have kept their beef that was prevalent for all these years aside. They became business partners and launched their hydration energy drink, Prime, in partnership. Still, this didn’t clear the bad blood between KSI and Jake Paul, they’re still hellbent on squaring up against each other. Paul also addressed their debacle multiple times, and how he wants to be kept out from it.
But recently, in his recent episode of Impaulsive, he talked about how this is perfect timing for them to negotiate a deal. So that they can give the fans what they’ve been wanting for years now. He said, “The Jake and KSI fight makes a lot of sense. You both made your shot at the ‘real boxer’, he scraped away barely by a little bit. You both put up good fights but in the content creation space at least, yeah it’s perfect.”
However, Jake Paul has announced a rematch against Nate Diaz, scheduled for December. KSI also has different plans after the first loss of his career. So the prospect of the fight is not looking too good, even for 2024.

KSI wants to take some time off
On October 22, almost a week after the ‘Prime’ card, KSI appeared on the Sidemen Sunday video. Sidemen is a group of Youtubers, with whom KSI usually makes videos, and they post one video every Sunday. In that video, the group asks KSI what’s actually next for him. He said something that he’s never said for a long time, as he’s constantly worked for the past six years.

He said, “What am I doing next? I’m actually relaxing man. You’ll see me in more Sidemen videos yeah. I need to relax, I need to.” Then a fellow Sidemen, Vikkstar, asked about the duration of this relaxing time. KSI laughed and said, “Give me about a month. Nah, I feel like I need to enjoy my hard work. I feel like I’ve just been working for so many f***ing years.”
