YouTuber turned boxer KSI looks to hand Tyson Fury's younger brother his first defeat when the two meet at the AO Arena in Manchester this weekend on the Misfits Boxing' Prime Card'. Since both fighters are undefeated professionally, one will lose that status. As expected, KSI has been throwing bants at Fury online to rile him up. During the launch press conference, Fury's father, John Fury, nearly caused a riot by destroying the set. KSI vs. Fury headlines the MF & DAZN: X Series 10 - The Prime Card, and the bout will be contested at 185 Ib.
BOXING: MFB Catchweight (183 Ib)
Venue: AO Apex, Manchester UK

KSI
Olajide Olatunji, known professionally as KSI, is a musician, YouTuber, influencer, and professional boxer. He has been involved in white-collar and professional boxing matches since 2018. Currently undefeated, KSI is the Misfits Boxing Cruiserweight champion, winning the vacant title in August 2022 after defeating Luis Alvarez Pineda. In the lead-up to their match, KSI posted embarrassing CCTV footage of Fury to get him to respond. Failing to get a reaction, the 30-year-old Brit laid into Owen Kirk - Fury's sparring partner ahead of the fight - for having a patchy record and a sign that Fury wasn't taking the bout seriously. KSI also claimed that Tyson Fury doesn't hit as hard as Deontay Wilder, to the astonishment of Tommy Fury.

Tyson doesn't hit harder than people like Wilder and s***t like that. I mean, how many times did Wilder drop him?
Tommy Fury
Tyson Fury's younger half-brother faced the biggest challenge of his fledgling career in the Arabian desert last February when he went into the ring as an underdog against former mixed martial artist Jake Paul. Tommy Fury's split-decision victory brought his record to 9-0. The former Love Island reality TV star called out KSI following his victory over Jake Paul. The 24-year-old Cruiserweight has kept his focus on his preparations ahead of the match, almost succeeding in ignoring the needling of KSI.

Guys….who knocked out Wilder? Tyson knocked him not. Tyson actually knocked him out. This proves what you know about boxing. You don't know boxing. We will see.
