KSI’s four-man hitlist for boxing return including two grudge matches, revenge fight and Conor McGregor blockbuster

KSI has revealed the four huge names he would return to boxing to fight.

The YouTuber-turned-prizefighter was beaten for the first time in October, losing a controversial decision to Tommy Fury.

KSI took time out following the heartbreaking defeat and left his boxing future up in the air.

But at the start of the year, he spoke out to reveal he will fight again with a summer return eyed.

Now on the What’s Good Podcast, KSI called out Jake Paul, Tommy Fury, Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor.

KSI, 30, said: “The Jake fight, the Tommy fight as well, let’s do the rematch.

“There could always be Mayweather, Conor McGregor. It has to be top tier.”

KSI has history with all four men and here SunSport delves into his storied past with the rivals.

Jake Paul

The feud goes back to 2019 when KSI beat Paul’s brother by split-decision and the American, 27, vowed to avenge the loss.

But in the years since, the two have failed to agree terms to fight and have instead gone their separate ways.

Weight has been the biggest issue with KSI insisting he is at his best at 175lb while Paul’s last two bouts have been at the 200lb cruiserweight limit.

So something must give if the mother of internet grudge matches is to be settled in the ring.

Tommy Fury

After dropping talks with Paul, last year KSI attempted to do what his rival couldn’t and beat Fury, 24.

And he came within a whisker of doing so only to lose a razor thin decision against the undefeated boxer.

The aftermath from the disputed decision resulted in an acrimonious fallout between the two camps leaving a rematch in doubt.

But it appears KSI is now ready to put it to one side and attempt to right his only wrong in the ring.

Floyd Mayweather

The boxing legend, 47, officially retired in 2017 after beating McGregor but he has continued to box in exhibitions since.

And one of those, in November 2022 in Dubai, was against KSI’s younger brother Deji.

Mayweather toyed and showboated his way through before scoring a sixth-round stoppage – despite walking out with a black eye.

But KSI was incensed by Mayweather’s disrespectful antics and called to avenge his brother down the line.

Conor McGregor

McGregor, 35, has teased a blockbuster boxing bout against KSI after bizarrely calling out the social media sensation to a bare-knuckle fight.

The Irishman has two bouts on his UFC deal left and he has kept the door open to another boxing switch – with KSI top of his list.

He told SneekPeakTV: “If I was to pick one out of them, I would say KSI, he has a big name in the UK.”
