The boxing match between KSI and Jake Paul next year at the Wembley Stadium seems closer to reality than ever. While the confirmation of the fight is still in the air, recently, KSI’s manager has said something about this much-awaited super fight.
After a successful content creation and music career, JJ Olatunji, better known as KSI, tried his hands in the boxing ring. Ever since that decision, he has been inside the ring five times and won four, while one ended in a draw.

However, there was still no official announcement about the fight. So many fans started questioning if those Twitter exchanges between KSI and Paul were just internet banter. However, KSI’s manager, Mams Taylor, recently stepped into the matter and claimed this super fight would happen.
In an interview with Christian HD, Mams Taylor said, “As long as there’s no f***ery on the contracts, 2023, that fight will happen. Guaranteed as much as you can guarantee. I can guarantee from our side, yes.”
Everyone is eagerly waiting for more updates about this matchup. It would be interesting to see if Olatunji can defeat both the Paul brothers or not. Moreover, this event would be a substantial financial profit for both.
