KSI after seeing the sparring session between Floyd Mayweather and Jarvis made a tweet. He recently took to Twitter and showed support for his brother. In the tweet, he claimed that if the sparring session was something to be taken into consideration, then Deji would be able to destroy FaZe Jarvis in the ring. This tweet caused a lot of mixed reactions among fans. Jarvis soon clapped back at him, writing “Jake’s better”.

Deji has also had an exhibition match against Floyd Mayweather Jr. It is quite hard to compare both of these boxers’ performances against Floyd since one had a spar with him and the other had an exhibition match.

Mayweather posted four rounds of the sparring session on his Instagram account. In the clips, Mayweather can be seen dancing around the ring and making high-pitched noises, while Jarvis tried to land punches. Mayweather even boasted that he could go 100 rounds without breaking a sweat. This was not surprising, as Jarvis only has one fight under his belt and has not competed since 2021.

Jarvis, who is 21 years old, recently signed a deal with Kingpin Boxing and will participate in their upcoming tournament against other content creators. Although, Jarvis is not a professional fighter. He knocked out fellow influencer Michael Le in the first round during a Creator Clash event in June 2021.

Mayweather taunted Deji throughout the bout. But the Brit was able to hit back with a few punches of his own. Deji even marked up Mayweather’s eye in one exchange. The legendary boxer tried to mock his opponent by taking the ring cards between rounds and helping in his corner, but Deji wasn’t deterred. After the fifth round, he hit the deck and started doing push-ups in the corner, sending Mayweather into finishing mode. The fight ended in the sixth round with a TKO victory for Mayweather, but the two showed mutual respect after the bout.

While it’s unclear what’s next for Mayweather, Deji will return to YouTube boxing. He is ready to take on any challenges that come his way. He has even called out Justin Bieber and Liam Payne for a fight. Overall, Deji may have been defeated, but he left a notable mark on one of boxing’s greatest legends and entertained fans around the world.

With the hype surrounding the potential fight between the two stars, it will surely be interesting to see where this back-and-forth leads to. With the relatively less experience of both fighters in the sport, the fight can go both ways.
