After this rematch in 2019, many expected the pair to engage in a trilogy and settle their prolonged rift. However, they didn’t fight throughout 2020 and 2021. In 2022, they quashed their beef as they collaborated on a new business venture.

Both KSI and Paul went live on Instagram, wherein ‘The Maverick’ abruptly accepted his defeat in the rematch. He said, “So we fought twice, I gotta tell you, something man. The second fight, I think you won fair and square. I said it. I think you won”
