Last night might have been the last straw in KSI’s boxing career. In his fight against Tommy Fury at the AO Arena in Manchester, he tasted a loss that might have been the most devastating in his career. Keeping aside the disappointing performance he delivered, his loss is a big deal given how much the fight held for him in his career and his personal life.
On the other hand, through a majority decision, Tommy Fury emerged victorious, but he failed to impress the spectators who had gathered. Despite being warned about the heavy clinching that happened in the ring, both fighters continued at it. The quality of this fight has sparked severe criticism for both of them and holding the flag here is their mutual rival, Jake Paul.

Jake Paul Shades KSI and Tommy Fury
One point of commonality between ‘JJ’ and ‘ TNT’ is an influencer-turned-boxer, Jake Paul. Fury’s animosity with Paul arises from this February when he gave the latter the first loss of his career through a split decision. KSI, on the other hand, has a long-going feud with Jake Paul that he tried channeling through a fight. However, ‘Problem Child’ Paul has not given him this fight. As Jake Paul’s two big rivals fought each other last night, the fighter stood ringside as the biggest critique out there.
In the wake of their clash, Jake Paul threw some serious shade at how his rivals fought against each other. Fans soon joined the fighter in furthering the scathing attacks at last night’s fight. One fan thought the mockery was apt for how the fight went about last night.
Wow. That is unbelievably accurate

A huge criticism of the fight was that both of them threw multiple clenches. A fan thought it was mainly KSI who did most of the clinching.
No hate or anything. But it definitely was ksi hopping in the corners with his guard down waiting for Tommy to come forward so he could counter with that overhand right that went right around Tommy’s neck, straight into a clinch.

He still done better than you to be fair
