KSI and Tommy Fury glared at each other in a first interaction since their boxing match.
Fury and KSI met in an influencer boxing showdown in October 2023, which ended in the former grabbing a narrow points decision from a cagey encounter.
‘TNT’ participated in Soccer Aid as part of the World XI, while his bitter rival watched his Sidemen colleague Miniminter – real named Simon Minter – from the stands.
Before kick-off, Fury looked the way of his former foe and glared at him while KSI elected to do the same back.
A staredown took place which was caught on camera, before KSI decided to flip a finger in the direction of his rival as he had turned his back.
Fury then elected to turn back around and glare at his rival again before the players took their sides and the match began.
Later in the charity event, KSI watched on as Fury was thrown into the action and failed to impress.
The Misfits Boxing guru then went to mock Fury’s display, howling with laughter while shouting: “Bro is he okay?”
It happened after the undefeated boxer decided to roll in the ball as opposed to a throw-in, clearly uncertain of the football rules.
The moment drew a hilarious reaction from others who spectated, including Fury’s manager Mauricio Pochettino who burst out laughing on the bench.
Ultimately Fury was on the losing team, as World XI fell to a defeat against England.
KSI was on the losing side of their boxing match, but was left furious with the judges’ who scored the contest in Fury’s favour.
He issued an appeal which was unsuccessful, but no talks have yet taken place over any imminent sequel.
But Fury’s father and manager John Fury insisted KSI must apologise for his actions after the final bell to stand a chance of earning a rematch.
He said: “We’re not interested in KSI. Not for a trillion dollars.
“Unless he comes up with an apology and decides to be a man, we want no part of it.
“He lost to Tommy on his own show. I know he’s aged about 10 or 15 years because of it. People like him, their egos are so big they just can’t move on from it.
“That will be his downfall. He needs to look in the mirror and take some lessons off real men on how to be one. You can’t disrespect people think you’re it.”
