Today in Manchester, England, Slim Albaher will go head-to-head with Salt Papi during the KSI vs. Tommy Fury ‘The PRIME Card’ event. The event is already generating buzz, thanks partly to high-profile personalities like Dillon Danis and Logan Paul. This offers a prime chance for both Salt Papi and Slim Albaher to elevate their profiles significantly.

Originally a YouTuber from Brooklyn, Slim Albaher transitioned to boxing in September 2019. He has since achieved four knockouts. Initially trained by former world champion Sadam Ali, he is now under the guidance of esteemed trainer Andre Rozier. Thus, the wait for the showdown is enthralling. Furthermore, a particular video has become a subject of fans’ intrigue. In this video, we witness Slim Albaher and Salt Papi face off against each other. But, what heightens fans’ interest is Slim teasing Papi.

In their final face-off, Slim teased Papi by saying, “Showtime Baby! , showtime baby!, fight of the night, rain all over it!. Man, heavyweight champ to be the new middleweight champ, baby bonus, you already know. Like always, getting knocked out, getting knocked down.”

However, this expression didn’t sit well with fans as they have in turn slammed him.
One fan optimistically predicts that by this time next year, Salt Papi will be in great shape, noting his apparent weight loss. The fan writes, “Around this same month next year Salti gonna have his six-pack showing. Everytime we see him he looks more and more slimmer.”
However, another fan expresses fatigue over influencers entering the boxing ring, doubting their legitimacy as fighters. The frustrated fan says, “So exhausted of these influencers playing grab a**. Not fighters never will be fighters.”
Adding to the varied responses, a third fan humorously questions an unusual detail about Slim. The fan quips, “What’s with the egg plant in the dude nose.”
The sentiment turns more decisive as another viewer confidently states that Salt Papi will win the fight. The viewer said, “Salt papi gon beat his a**.”
Next, a fan bluntly criticizes Slim, calling him “terrible.”
