YouTuber turned boxing superstar, KSI, has been regularly creating waves in the world of boxing. Moreover, he has instilled a newfound interest in the sport of boxing among viewers, with his promotion, Misfits Boxing. KSI was last seen dishing out a sensational knockout against FaZe Temperrr in January. And is all set to recreate the magic once again with his upcoming fight against Joe Fournier. With the fight date quickly approaching, it looks like he is not leaving any stone unturned in preparation for the fight.

KSI will face the 40-Year-Old Businessman Fournier at the Wembley Arena, London, on May 13, 2023. Notably, Fournier made a name for himself in the fitness industry before transitioning into owning nightclubs. He is also a professional boxer with an unbeaten record.

In anticipation of the fight, KSI has completely dedicated himself to training. He even posted a photograph of himself sprawled on the floor after an intense session. Moreover, he mentioned that he is training hard for his ‘hardest fight yet’.

Meanwhile, the drama surrounding the fight has further hyped the fans up. As reported by The Mirror, the duo even agreed to a £10 million (approx USD 12.2 million) bet, with Fournier even offering the amount to purchase Misfits Boxing. KSI, on the other hand, responded by saying, “Wow, I mean £10 million is pretty low for the price of Misfits. I think it’s worth way more than £10 million. But if he wants to put that up then I’m down.”

Fans were unsure about KSI vs Joe Fournier

It should be mentioned that boxing fans were not too sure about this matchup. In fact, a lot of them took to social media to share their thoughts about the same.

A few fans commended KSI for staying true to the grind.

Meanwhile, a few fans felt that Fournier was not a good enough opponent. Moreover, user @MarathonOnYT even referred to him as a ‘real estate agent’.

On the other hand, user @R0kuro69 was certain that KSI will give a befitting reply to his haters.

However, user @Jm1994S was not too fond of YouTube boxing becoming a legitimate series. What are your thoughts on this matchup? Let us know in the comments below.
