The Misfits 007 event was quite engaging. The bout that was the highlight of the event, of course, was the one that featured internet sensation KSI. Popular YouTuber turned boxer knocked out his foe Joe Fournier in the second round itself. But, the replay of the knockout became a point of criticism and discussion.

Apparently, JJ used his elbow to knock Fournier out, which poses quite a complication when looking through the lens of boxing policies. After many online debates, the man himself has released a video stating what actually went down in the ring.

KSI opens up about the controversial elbow incident

Misfits boxing is an event that revolutionized the concept of boxing in the sporting industry. It gave rookie talents to professional boxers, a base where they could prove themselves. The idea pioneered by none other than KSI has witnessed massive responses across the globe. Thus, his fight with Joe Fournier was one for the books. But things took a nasty turn when KSI’s elbow met Fournier’s chin.

This controversial move has caused quite a debate among the netizens, where some are supporting KSI while others are against them. Now the man himself came out talking about the incident. According to KSI, there was no reason for him to use a dirty move to knock Fournier out. To substantiate his argument, JJ pulled out tapes of the fight and was pointing out that he was actually having the upper hand in the fight.

“It’s stupid and I believe most people are on my side,” stated KSI as he found out that the incident has reached the epitome of online popularity. JJ was stating that the cause of his elbow connecting to Fournier’s face was actually an accident. Apparently, when JJ punched him, Fournier, who already has taken a blow from the YouTuber, feinted against him.

Thus, instead of moving back, KSI’s foe came towards him and this is what eventually resulted in that controversial move. Additionally, KSI is quite happy that the ‘Notorious’ Conor McGregor has tweeted in support of what he did. JJ even joked about how Jake Paul might be infuriated with McGregor’s statements.

KSI also dismissed any chances of a rematch between him and Fournier. He said he would be moving on with his life, reiterating how much he trained for this particular match, and its surprising result. The official complaint that was raised by Joe Fournier would get a final verdict on May 19, 2023. KSI is hoping that the verdict is favorable to him.
