With KSI’s fight making headlines, all eyes were on him. However, it was only a matter of a few minutes before the fame turned into dust as fans accused him of cheating. Despite knocking out his opponent, the community felt he cheated, as using the elbow isn’t allowed in boxing. In fact, his opponent also voiced an opinion, referring to the video on the internet.

However, JJ had a differing opinion of it, claiming the punch to be a fair deal. He even posted a long tweet talking about the story, but somehow it turned against him. KSI’s Twitter post also caught the attention of IRL streamer xQc, who instantly reacted to it. Felix broke down the tweet into parts, stating that he simply cooked it up. So, according to him, KSI did cheat, and it was nowhere near a fair win.

xQc started off the bit by reading JJ’s post in a British accent only to realize his foolishness. Then, he came to the main part which read, “Unfortunately the victory, which was inevitable no matter what, is tarnished and I hate that. It sucks!” This instantly irked xQc as he said, “It’s not tarnished bro that’s just cooked up.” Felix then explained how the boxer was blaming strategy for making a mistake.
