But this highly anticipated bout ended rather quickly as JJ knocked out Temperrr in the very first round. The bout started with much promise, as both of the fighters seemed evenly matched at first. Though Temperrr was fighting very defensively, KSI broke the guard of the FaZe clan member and punished him heavily, which resulted in a total knockout with just 48 seconds left in the first round. 

After witnessing such an amazing performance by his brother, Deji took to social media to share a warm moment between them after the fight had concluded. Deji tweeted, “So proud of my bro” with a picture of him giving a tender hug to his champion brother JJ with a smile of contentment on his face. 

How did the fans react to this wholesome moment?

The fans were very supportive of the loving bond they were sharing, but there were some followers who were pouring some hate on Deji, calling him a shadow of KSI.
