YOUTUBE sensation Deji returns to ring action as he faces social media star Alex Wassabi in a highly anticipated grudge match.

Deji hasn’t stepped foot in the ring since last summer when Vinnie Hacker secured a three-round TKO victory against the 25-year-old.

And this was following a fifth round loss courtesy of Jake Paul back in 2018 on the undercard of KSI vs Logan Paul.

But now, KSI’s little brother is hoping to prove to his 9.8 million subscribers that he can bounce back from losing his “Battle of the Platforms” bout.

However, challenger Wassabi previously announced that he had been training for years which makes it an intriguing match-up.

  • Deji’s big return to boxing against Wassabi is scheduled to go ahead on Saturday, March 5.
  • The event will take place at the SSE Arena, Wembley in London.
  • Showstar Boxing will promote the event, which should get underway from around 6pm UK time.
  • But the main event of Deji vs Alex Wassabi is likely to get going later in the night at around 9pm.

What TV channel is it on and can it be live streamed?

  • Unfortunately, Deji vs Alex Wassabi will not be broadcasted on UK television.
  • However, all the action will be available to watch on Showstar’s own pay-per-view stream.

What has been said?

Deji has said: “I’m going to be fighting main event on the Showstar UK vs USA event at the Wembley SSE Arena.

“Alex Wassabi, you desperate f***er. You got your wish, I’m going to bury your already dead career.

“You ran from my bro but there’s no escaping me – I’m going to put you to sleep on that canvas, March 5th.

“I want to see all my fans there.”

Alex Wassabi replied: “That’s his mindset, it’s all mental with him and it’s hard to talk about because I want this to be a good fight.

“I would rather win a decision than win by first round knockout because I want it to be an epic battle – this is my first fight!”
