Particularly when rumors about his next fight to be against Joe Fournier spread around the internet, his followers went crazy. Everyone started making speculation and one of the fans even made an elaborate poster for their fight. These rumors attracted KSI’s team and his Manager, Mams Taylor, teased that these rumors may not be completely false.
Is KSI vs Joe Fournier actually happening?
On October 7, the manager of KSI Mams Taylor replied to a fan’s tweet from his official Twitter account. The fan had asked if the rumors were true and if KSI was actually going to fight Joe. In his reply, Mams said, “If the people wanted it, why not.” Implying that if there is enough support for the matchup, then there is a chance that this may actually happen.
But if there is a slight possibility for this fight to actually be a reality, then KSI can expect some tough times ahead of him. As his potential opponent, Joe Fournier is no easy game. Joe has made a serious reputation for himself by winning all of his nine previous matches with Knockouts. So if KSI wants to fight, he better start prepping.
But KSI is no lightweight either. This year, he had a fight with Swarmz and breezed through the match with a round 2 TKO. His unbeaten streak and natural talent can be very challenging for even a well-experienced fighter like Joe.
How did fans react to this announcement?
Fans were ecstatic seeing their dreams have a chance to be reality. JJ’s followers huddled in the replies saying this would be an “easy fight” for him and urging Mams to “Release the beast” while others said this will be the toughest fight for him. But the general question was the same “Is this even real?”
Ooo yaaa that’s easy work for ksi!
