Fans react to KSI being honest about him facing Artur Beterbiev in the boxing ring

Joe Rogan said Bererbiev was a terrifying boxer in the ring. Would KSI survive with him? A user compared his honesty to that of Jake Paul. They said, “At least he knows his lane, unlike Jake who wants Canelo… 🤦🏾‍♂️😂”

One jokingly referred to Tyson Fury: “This was Tyson’s furys response when his team asked him if he wants to fight AJ”

 

Meanwhile, another said, “Beterbiev would eat KSI alive in less than first gear. However, Yarde would slap up Beterbiev within 6 rounds.”

 

Likewise, one commented by saying, “Yeah true. Ksi who has boxed for 3 years should challenge a unified light heavyweight champion who has a 100% KO ratio and is a top 10 pound-for-pound fighter. Your delusion is off the charts.”

Another said, “This is the same guy who said he would beat Floyd and Mike Tyson, he is just trying to show that he is self-aware about his ability”

Finally, one user said, “The little helmet just said he’d beat Floyd though. I have no problem with them doing their little fights but don’t pretend you’re a bad man.”
