Both KSI and Jake Paul have been talking about fighting in a boxing bout for a long time, but it appears this time it’s actually going to happen.
There has been a growing trend among celebrities and those with a lot of influence on social media to participate in combat sports. From YouTube, examples of two well-known boxing figures are KSI and Jake Paul, who helped establish the trend.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI has been showcasing his skill in the ring. Earlier when Jake Paul offered KSI a boxing fight he was hesitant to fight Jake anytime soon and preferred to face amateurs as his next two opponents to develop his ring skills.
After a couple of weeks, the internet influencers are at it again, as Jake responded to a fight proposal from KSI on one condition and answered on Twitter saying, “I will agree to fight KSI at 180 pounds plus his request for a 10-pound rehydration clause. But it has to be 100% winner takes all like he requested. ZERO to the loser. ZERO.”

KSI, who just defeated FaZe Temperrr in January in the main event of Misfits Boxing 4 at Wembley Arena in London, launched a counterattack on Jake by labeling him an idiot for setting such a term, implying that he would eventually win the bout and Jake would be left with nothing.
“So you gave into my demands and now want to give me more money too? You got yourself a deal idiot.” KSI tweeted.
Instead of keeping quiet, Jake Paul shot back an immediate response to KSI saying, “Yeah I gave into your ‘demands’ to try and give you an advantage for you to actually agree to fight me. Again ZERO to the loser. Not you, not your fake a** promotion.”
Youtubers’ war is on the verge of becoming confirmed at this point. When The Problem Child faces up against KSI, who do you think will come out on top?
