Still fresh from his TKO win over Bryce Hall, McBroom is now eager to go for bigger challenges. Although KSI is nowhere close to a pro boxer, he is a better competitor than Hall.

Following a win over Logan Paul in 2019, KSI disappeared from the boxing world. While YouTubers and celebrities began making frequent moves to the ring, KSI remained with his Internet profession. However, Austin McBroom’s recent call out seems to have re-ignited the fire. Hence, we can expect another lucrative showdown between two Internet stars in the upcoming days.

Both KSI and McBroom have now got wins under their belt. Hence, it validates an in-ring collision between them. However, as of now, the matchup is still far from being put on the papers and is just a mere social banter. While we look back at KSI and McBroom’s latest performances, there are some significant differences that can be found.

KSI and Austin McBroom- Who is a better boxer?

Austin McBroom headlined the ‘Battle of Platforms’ event against TikTok star Bryce Hall and registered a sensational TKO win. It was barely a fight, and McBroom had an easy day at the office. The YouTuber was the aggressor from the start, and in under three rounds, he overpowered Hall. While it earned him sheer appraisal, that still doesn’t count as a valid boxing win.

Austin McBroom wasn’t tested in his first fight. However, in a battle against KSI, he will face a sterner challenge than he did against Bryce Hall. KSI has competed against Logan Paul twice. After a controversial draw in the first fight, he beat ‘The Maverick’ in the second via decision. Hence, he might have earned a bit more respect in the boxing world compared to Austin McBroom.
