KSI has called out boxing world champion Devin Haney for a Twitter gaffe ahead of his fights.
The YouTuber is set to take on rapper Swarmz AND pro boxer Luis Alcaraz Pineda at the O2 Arena on Saturday.
And ahead of the contest KSI poked fun at lightweight world champ Haney after he ‘followed’ a Twitter boxing page titled ‘KSI vs Swarmz live stream free’.
KSI shared screenshots showing proof on Twitter and said: “Just wanna make sure you’re gonna pay for the fight bro @Realdevinhaney.”
A red-faced Haney responded sheepishly – though claimed he had not meant to show support to the page.
He replied: “That was a accident [sic]…. lol definitely gonna watch tho.”

But the 28-0 fighter did not convince fans that he had made a simple mistake.
Many were quick to mock Haney, casting doubt on his claim that the follow had been accidental.
One fan wrote: “Of course bro, it was just an accident. aye, im going to make the same accident also.”
Another added: “We know it wasn’t an accident bro you’re like the rest of us.”
