With just a few days left in the showdown between YouTuber KSI and professional boxer Tommy Fury, both continue to dominate headlines. The stage is ready for 14th October 2023. However, despite repeated tries, the British YouTuber has failed to impress fans with his preparation. This time, however, the buzz isn’t about their impending fight. KSI has captured attention for a completely different reason: he claims he can defeat renowned boxer Ryan Garcia, a statement that fans find hard to believe.

A recent clip from DAZN’s new YouTube video showcased a game between Anthony Joshua and KSI where they judged the truth of various statements. However, one statement involved KSI facing off against Ryan Garcia, which KSI confirmed as true. Surprisingly, even Joshua supported KSI’s claim. However, the clip was marred with scathing responses from fans. Moreover, a heated beef between both of them is garnering headlines. Now, ‘King Ry’ has proposed to end the hustle and bustle of this beef in the form of a showdown.

The saga between KSI and ‘King Ry’ has taken a sharp left and a Fight Hub TV video summarizes it. Apparently, Garcia took to his Twitter to hurl censure at the YouTuber-turned-boxer. Ryan Garcia accuses KSI of harboring unjustified resentment towards him.

He asserts that KSI couldn’t last in a fight with him as he has claimed. Garcia describes KSI as a “7 head monster” and tells him to stop mentioning his name. As he tweeted, “KSI is so salty on me for no reason. He can’t go the distance with me like he claimed. He’s a 7 head monster. Stop speaking my name. @KSI”

 

Furthermore, Garcia is quite vexed at KSI taking his name perpetually. So, he took to his Instagram DM and messaged KSI. Ryan Garcia told KSI to either challenge him to a fight or stop mentioning his name. He messaged him saying, “If you want to fight me let me know or just stop taking my name.” To understand what caused this beef, one must revisit the pages of the past where Garcia allegedly made a blatant claim about KSI.

It’s well-known that the British YouTuber and Garcia have a mutual animosity and have been trading verbal jabs through social media and interviews for several months. So, when Garcia joined the IMPAULSIVE podcast with hosts Mike Maljak and George Janko, they asked him about a potential fight between KSI and Jake Paul. Garcia said Jake Paul would knock out KSI due to KSI’s aggressive style.
