The night is young
Wembley Arena in north London is emptying out slowly but there’s plenty for us to discuss and break down.
KSI will be speaking to us shortly. Let’s try and find out when we could see a Jake Paul fight.
End goal
It’s still Jake Paul. That’s still the showdown that KSI is working towards.
That fight has to be round the corner from where we are right now – at Wembley Stadium with over 90,000 fans present.

On his next fight, KSI says: “Joe Fournier, Woodley, Slim, whoever it is – I’ll destroy.”
And then he finishes by drinking a bottle of his Prime energy drink that’s selling like crazy on this side of the Atlantic.
Next up
Joe Fournier is on stage and wants a piece of KSI.
The YouTuber wants it too it seems, saying: “I need to be tested.”
KSI adds: “I more tests before I reach the final level… Jake f***ing Paul.”
Stage ready
“I said I wanted a KO in round one and here we are baby.
“I want you guys to understand the levels. Look at what Swarmz did to Ryan Taylor.
“Look at what Pineda did to that guy who I don’t know his name. And look at what I did to Temperrr. I’m on a different level.”
Rich talk
We’ll hear what KSI has got to say in a few seconds. He’s still in the ring and so is his opponent.
Where does he go from here? What’s the next step up?
Quick work
KSI wins in the first round. FaZe didn’t know what hit him.
An almighty roar went up with that KO and KSI celebrates with some press-ups in the middle of the ring.
His fifth win in six fights.

FaZe isn’t getting up. KSI wins in the first round.
He’s down!
Down goes FaZe! Down goes FaZe!
It’s time
Michael Buffer screams to the 13,000 fans in London: “LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE.”
Final instructions given out by the referee and we’re about ready to go.
Chants of “KSI, KSI, KSI” have broken out in here.
What a roar
A huge ovation for KSI as he makes his way to the ring.
We’re going to have the national anthems of the USA and UK before the main event gets underway.
What do I hear?
I hear Michael Buffer.
I see Michael Buffer.
It’s main event time.
Business partner
Logan Paul is watching on from home.
He and KSI have created the Prime drink that is flying off the shelves.
Main event
We’re almost ready for the main event of the evening.
Final preparations are being made backstage.
Slim says
“The only way I stay at this weight class is if I fight KSI. Otherwise I’m going to shoot back down to 168lbs, my natural weight.”
I’d tune in for that.
Weight gain
Slim wants to change weight class. He says he’s hitting people with some big shots but they’re not moving.
He does look a very slight man in the ring next to someone like Zanetti.
Good performance from both men.
It’s unanimous
Slim gets the decision but boy did he have to work hard.
40-37, 39-37 and 39-38 on the scorecards.

Wow! What an absolute war!
The two fighters hug after the end of the bout.
Full credit to Zanetti to keep coming forward there and he had Slim in all sorts of trouble.
I think Slim has done enough but he was hanging on at the end.
Heart of a lion
What heart from Zanetti! He keeps coming forward and has some luck with a couple shots after Slim drops his hands.
Still Slim’s round I’d say but Zanetti is not out of this.
One-way traffic
Very impressive stuff from Slim.
He’s picking Zanetti’s defence apart here and landing almost at will.
Slim on top
Zanetti doing a lot of talking in the ring and looking to come forward.
But some quality shots from Slim rocked him a few times.
Good round for the champion.
Seconds out
Right then, here we go for the co-main event.
Walk of life
Slim has just won the walk-on contest again.
He came out to Backstreet Boys ‘I want it that way’.
Last year he did Vanessa Carlton.
Incredible confidence.
Here we go
It’s time for the chief support.
Tom Zanetti is on his way to the ring.
Chief support
We’ll have the final undercard fight coming up very shortly.
Slim Albaher is going up against Tom Zanetti before we see KSI take on FaZe Temperrr.
