KSI has introduced his subsequent combat will happen in America and launched a ballot for followers to resolve who’ll be his opponent.
In August, KSI, actual title Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji (JJ) placed on a boxing occasion the place he knocked out two opponents in a single night time, opening the present by stopping rapper Swarmz earlier than beating skilled boxer, Luis Alcaraz Pineda.
It was the primary time he’d been within the ring since choosing up a break up determination win over Logan Paul on the Staples Middle in LA in 2020.
A 12 months prior, the YouTuber, rapper, and 3-0 boxer clashed with Paul on the Manchester Enviornment, in a six-round white-collar bout that resulted in a draw and seemingly began the web boxing increase.
After a few years out of the ring, KSI entered the 12 months missing health however after a number of months of combat camp, he’s now in the very best form of his life and able to go once more within the coming months.
On Wednesday, the 29-year-old took to social media to announce when and the place his subsequent combat will happen earlier than asking followers to select his opponent, he tweeted: “Who would you like me to combat in January?”
On the high of the record was former UFC champion Tyron Woodley, who famously fought KSI’s largest rival, Jake Paul, twice and was viciously knocked out by ‘The Drawback Little one’ of their rematch.
Subsequent up is Dillon Danis, who’s finest recognized for being one in every of Conor McGregor’s coaching companions. ‘El Jefe’ can also be a 2-0 MMA prospect with elite-level submission abilities however his putting credentials are questionable, to say the least.
Another option for KSI is his long-time rival and fellow YouTuber Slim Albaher who picked up an impressive stoppage win over FaZe Temperr at the O2 Arena in London on August 25.
Finally, Mikhail Varshavski AKA Doctor Mike, who is a Russian-born American internet personality and family medicine physician who made a victorious boxing debut in May 2022 against influencer iDubbbz.
KSI took time to explain why British boxing prospect Tommy Fury and controversial social media star Andrew Tate were not options after he called them out last month.
“Tommy Fury can’t fight in America (That’s where the next event is), and Andrew Tate is too heavy for me,” he added.
Tyson Fury’s little brother was infamously stopped from flying to America earlier this year and is believed to be banned from the country.
Meanwhile, Tate is believed to weigh in excess of 200lbs which is 25lbs heavier than KSI is planning to fight at after seriously trimming down as of late.
