KSI is making his big return to the boxing ring in a clash with fellow YouTube sensation FaZe Temperrr.
Originally, KSI was supposed to face Dillon Danis, but the latter pulled out 10 days before fight night.
KSI and Danis shared a pretty heated build-up for their fight, but fans have will now be watching a different clash.
Temperrr, who was last in action on Misfits Boxing 003, winning by first-round knockout, could provide an even tougher test for KSI.
KSI was last in action against Swarmz and Luis Pineda in August, winning both by stoppage.
A fight with Jake Paul looks to be KSI’s endgame, so he’ll need to put on another starring performance en route to that mega-event.

What has been said?
“I mentioned at the Press Conference that Dillon was being haunted by me. He made his excuses and knew he couldn’t handle what I bring to a boxing ring,” KSI said.
“This answers the question whether he’s a fighter or not.
“He’s a warrior alright, a keyboard warrior, and hopefully he’s learnt to leave the real men to speak with their actions rather than hollow words.”
“That being said, my focus won’t be distracted from the task at hand and that’s FaZe Temperrr.
“We’ve come head-to-head plenty of times with the Sidemen and FaZe Clan competing against each other, and it looks like we have another challenge on our hands.
“Credit to Temperrr for stepping up like a REAL fighter.”
Temperrr added: “I showed exactly what I can do in my last fight.
“At any moment in the fight, I can catch my opponent and you can see how they respond when that happens.

“The Sidemen have been on top for too long, and it’s time for FaZe and I to show them exactly what we’re made of.
“Sure, KSI is a huge name, but only one man is going to come out of this victorious. I hope he’s as prepared as he says he is, because I’m coming to London to do one thing, and that’s claim a massive win inside that ring.”
