The present-day boxing scene differs completely from the traditional scenario. Today, even celebrities involve themselves in boxing fights which turn out to be some of the biggest events. The month of August had two big celebrity fights, KSI vs. Alex Wassabi and Jake Paul vs. Hasim Rahman Jr. However, the latter fight got shelved, and here’s what KSI has to say about it. 

KSI stated in a video, “Jake Paul is out here charging $60, more than Usyk vs. AJ. Do you know what you could do with $60, with $60 you can go to a nice restaurant, go to the O2 to watch me annihilate Alex Wassabi. You could even buy my pay-per-view and still have money left over to buy snacks, or drinks or whatever the fu** you want. You can literally buy Prime, buy sides and watch the pay-per-view, all in the comfort of your own home. Like it was crazy, Jake Paul was literally robbing his audience. And some of his audience would actually pay for that, that’s the sad thing. Some poor souls spending money getting scammed by this guy.”
