KSI brutally knocked out YouTuber Faze Temperrr and moved a step closer to his dream grudge fight with Jake Paul.
The social media, music and crossover boxing star returned to the ring in front of a packed out Wembley Arena.
And it was gamer Temperr, 29, in the opposite corner after 2-0 MMA fighter Dillon Danis, 29, pulled out with just weeks to go.
But KSI, 29, proved it mattered little who he was in the ring with as a left hook and right hand combination closed the show in round one.
He said: “I said I wanted to KO, I said I wanted round one. People need to understand the levels.”
The Londoner has talked up a summer bout and was confronted by millionaire businessman-turned boxer Joe Fournier.

Fournier, 39, is 9-0 as a boxer and KSI is ready to return against him before finishing his boxing career in an end of year blockbuster with Paul.
He said: “I need to be tested. I need more tests until I reach the final hurdle, Jake motherf****** Paul.
“That’s the end game ladies and gentlemen, I said I wanted him at the end of the year and I will get him, trust.
“But, before I get to that, Joe Fournier, Woodley, Slim, whoever it is, I’m going to destroy them.”

KSI came out of the traps early, chasing Temperrr across the ring with pure aggression.
He was met with some sharp counter left hands from Temperr, who was using the most of his awkward southpaw stance.
It led KSI to regroup and regain a bounce in his step and before Temperr knew it, a quick combination left him out for the count.
KSI leaped in with a left hook and right hand, which was enough settle it all.
The crowd erupted as KSI got another win under his belt and moved a step closer to settling the score with his arch enemy.
