KSI puts YouTube bragging rights on the line when he faces replacement opponent Faze Temperrr.
The social media, rap and crossover boxing star was due to return to the ring on Saturday against MMA’s Dillon Danis.
But Danis, 29, pulled out of the bout, with gamer Temperrr – real name Thomas Oliveira – filling in.
KSI prepares for his sixth boxing match, having beaten online rivals Joe Weller, 26, and Logan Paul, 27, in the past.
He initially drew with Paul in 2018 but won their rematch after turning professional a year later.
After three years out of the ring, KSI, 29, returned in August to beat rapper Swarmz, 26, and boxer Luis Alcaraz Pineda, 23, on the SAME NIGHT.
