However, it seems that the YouTube sensation, KSI, made his thoughts amply clear after he came out and supported Tate’s ban. Moreover, he even called out Top G after his 2-fights in a single night event, adding fuel to the fire. Tate was also not shy to call KSI out as he accused the British YouTuber of being a hypocrite after changing his views. He also claimed that KSI had said more controversial things than him but wasn’t banned from any platform.

The fans who have followed The Nightmare for a long time know that he was not a stranger to controversy during his early days. However, it was a time when the internet was much less regulated and people were not always politically correct.
