Unexpectedly, Jake Paul and KSI have worked out a special arrangement for their possible boxing match. Paul expressed his excitement about facing KSI at 180 pounds in a tweet, specifying the inclusion of a rehydration clause. The twist in this arrangement lies in the introduction of a high-stakes element to the fight.
This unconventional agreement showcases Paul’s confidence and eagerness to validate his skills in the boxing ring, creating a match that intertwines both financial risk and physical prowess.
Explaining Jake Paul’s $50 million winner-takes-all fight offer to KSI
Jake Paul is a 185-pound fighter who has faced a loss against Tommy Fury. KSI recently competed against Tommy Fury at 183 pounds, a fight he claims to have won. Jake Paul is scheduled to compete at 180 pounds if the bout is a winner-take-all.
According to KSI’s team, Jake cannot do that since he is not in control of the Misfits. The proposed solution, as suggested earlier, is to allocate a purse of $25 million to each fighter, with the winner receiving the other fighter’s $50 million purse.
Although Jake Paul is the A-side, he is willing to travel to the UK and allow KSI to start the fight. If the weight class is set at 185 pounds, KSI will come in second. According to reports, the fight will not take place in the UK if it is not at 185.
KSI wants to rematch Tommy Fury
Nearly two months have passed since KSI and Tommy Fury squared off in a much-awaited boxing match. Despite the unanimous decision loss, the UK content creator seems unwavering in his belief that he won.
In addition to contesting the judge’s ruling, KSI has constructed a storyline that charges Fury with repeatedly landing illegal blows to the back of the skull, strengthening his case for a rematch.
Even though Fury rejected the notion of a rematch, KSI is now involved in a new controversy. According to reports, the 30-year-old boxer urged his fans to flood Tommy Fury’s social media accounts with criticism that the most recent fight was not a fair win.
This has led to a barrage of criticism and accusations of online harassment from KSI, which has forced ‘JJ’ to finally address the ongoing drama. In response to the criticism, KSI recently took a moment to address the claims of online harassment. In a recent episode of Sidecast, the Sidemen’s podcast, the YouTuber-turned-boxer expressed his frustration.
JJ and Tommy fought earlier, and Tommy won, a result KSI is uncertain about. However, if they both fight again or if KSI faces Jake Paul, it will undoubtedly be an entertaining match to watch.
