And he captioned the clip: “Training with the GOAT.”

Tommy, 24, is coming off victory over Jake Paul, 26, by split-decision in their Saudi Arabia celebrity grudge match in February.

But Paul snubbed a rematch to instead return on August 5 in Texas against ex-UFC fighter Nate Diaz, 38.

So Tommy has turned his attention to KSI, who revealed talks are progressing between them.

KSI, 30, told his Misfits Boxing YouTube channel: “I am training for that fight.

“Negotiations are going back and forth, we’re just waiting on Tommy essentially.

“We’ve just gotta do a few things to make sure it’s all perfect, but it’s very, very close.

“I’m training, I’m getting ready for that fight, that’s what I want.”

His manager Mams Taylor added: “We’ve gone back and forth and negotiated and now we’ve agreed to all the changes that they’ve requested.

“I don’t think there’s anything more other than for the ink to dry for both guys to make this happen.”

And Tommy’s dad and trainer John told SecondsOut: “Well, we’re nearly over the line with that one I think.

“Me and the Sauerlands, we’re nearly over the line with it. I think it’ll be announced very shortly.

“Until it’s signed off, nothing’s done, is it? But I’m happy, we’re nearly there. We’ll hopefully get it on this year with him and KSI.”
