KSI has been backed in his quest to have his loss to Tommy Fury overturned and a rematch called.
The YouTube, music and crossover boxing star was controversially beaten on points after six scrappy rounds with Fury.
KSI fumed after the result was read out and revealed plans to APPEAL his first ever defeat.
Even DAZN CEO Joe Markowski was in agreement and doubled down on his view online.
He posted on X, formerly Twitter: “Stand by this. @KSI was robbed. Appeal and rematch please.”
Markowski still has much to smile about after the Misfits Boxing event reportedly sold 1.3MILLION pay-per-views, according to Happy Punch.

But much of the paying public would have been left underwhelmed by the bout, which was filled with ugly clinching and grabbing.
Fury, 24, was even docked a point in round two for punches to the back of the head during one of many tie ups between the two.
So it raised eyebrows when he was awarded a majority-decision win after two judges scored it 56-57 in his favour and another 57-57 a draw.
But it was later revealed official Rafael James had actually sided 56-57 for Fury, with his win since being changed to a unanimous-decision.

KSI, 30, was left raging after the loss and said: “That is a robbery. How many jabs did you land?
“Look at your face, look at your eyes. I’m the YouTuber, you are the boxer so you have to win?
“He is the man who is one who is supposed to be the pro boxer. He hit me on the back of the head over and over. It is outrageous.
“I want to appeal. I need to see it again. I felt like I won that.”
