KSI vowed to “DESTROY” Andrew Tate after sparring footage of the controversial kickboxer-turned influencer emerged online.
Tate is a former kickboxing world champion and professional MMA fighter, who most recently competed in 2020.
But in recent years he has become more well known as an internet personality, who has been accused of voicing misogynic views.
YouTube star and crossover boxer KSI has been critical of Tate in the past, leading to a feud between the two.
And after sparring footage was shared of the American-born Brit, KSI was quick to fire a dig.
He tweeted: “From watching this, I would absolutely DESTROY Andrew Tate. Watch me on May 13th for those that don’t believe me.”
In the clip, Tate takes some shots to the face and stomach before dropping his sparring partner with a body shot.
And in response to KSI’s criticsm, he responded: “I was literally teaching him and telling him what to do. I wasn’t even punching back.”
KSI, 29, returns to the ring on Saturday against millionaire nightclub tycoon and 9-0 boxer Joe Fournier, 40, at Wembley Arena.
Meanwhile Tate, 36, is currently serving house arrest with his younger brother Tristan, 34, pending a criminal investigation.

They were in December arrested in Bucharest with two Romanian women on suspicion of human trafficking, organised crime and rape.
They have all denied the allegations.
The Tate brothers spent three months in prison before being released and placed under house arrest at the end of March.
This followed the winning of an appeal against a judge who decided to extend his time in jail for another month.
Their house arrest has been extended for another 30 days by a Romanian court as charges have still not been brought against them.
The latest extension to their house arrest means the Tate brothers cannot leave their homes before May 29.
