JAKE PAUL said he will fight KSI whenever his YouTube rival is ready to get “embarrassed” and left “unconscious”.
The online feud is set to finally be settled this year with talks of a blockbuster in December.
And the two publicly agreed to fight at a catchweight of 180lb in a winner-take-all bout with only the victor receiving pay.
Paul told the Daily Mail: “It was good that we agreed on a weight, and we agreed on winner takes all. That’s pretty exciting.
“I thought the weight was going to be more of an issue, but it actually looks like it’s starting to progress.
“But who knows if he’ll actually follow through in the year. I’m ready whenever.

“KSI has said December, so whenever he wants to get embarrassed, whenever he wants to be unconscious, I’m ready whenever. I’ve always been ready.”
The bad blood dates back to KSI’s pair of fights with Paul’s brother Logan, 27, drawing the first and winning the rematch.
But he would take three years out to focus on his music career, since winning three comeback fights.
Meanwhile Paul, 26, is now 6-0 and most recently beat UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47, in October.
