      by

      Who has the YouTuber fought?
      Like many internet sensations, KSI has used his social media fame as an opportunity to enter the world of boxing.
      As of December 2023, the YouTuber-turned boxer boasts a boxing record of 4-1-1.
      Logan Paul
      Having previously beaten fellow YouTuber Joe Weller in his first amateur boxing fight, KSI turned his attention to Logan Paul as his next opponent.
      The highly-anticipated fight ended in a draw, with the rematch scheduled as a professional fight – the first of both their careers.

      KSI once again emerged victorious with a result of a split decision, with two judges scoring the contest in favour of the British boxer.
      Swarmz and Luis Pineda
      In 2022, KSI returned to the ring once more to face rapper Swarmz.
      Later that evening, the YouTuber fought for a second time against Mexican boxer Luis Pineda.
      Following the double fight night, KSI defeated Swarmz via a second round KO – and that wasn’t his only victory.

      KSI also defeated Pineda via a third round KO.
      FaZe Temperrr
      The next boxing bout saw KSI take to the ring against Brazilian YouTuber FaZe Temperrr.
      However, he was originally scheduled to face Conor McGregor’s training partner Dillon Danis.
      This bout turned out to be KSI’s quickest victory to date – with the contest stopping in the first round following a brutal knockout.
      Joe Fournier
      Following a number of wins, KSI faced professional boxer Joe Fournier, who was also undefeated, in May 2023 at the Wembley Arena in London.
      During the second round, the YouTuber-turned boxer threw a right hook that missed, causing his elbow to strike Fournier, knocking him unconscious.
      KSI was awarded the KO win on the night, but after the bout concluded, Fournier appealed the decision.
      Later that month, the Professional Boxing Association officially overturned the win and it was ruled as a no contest.
      Tommy Fury
      The YouTuber suffered a unanimous decision defeat to the Love Island star in their grudge match.
      The bout took place at Manchester Arena in Manchester, on October 14, 2023.
      Internet sensation KSI fumed with the result of the contest, so much so that he launched an appeal to the Professional Boxing Association.
      But the PBA have insisted there were NO grounds to overturn the result of the Misfits melee.
      KSI was consumed with rage after slipping to his first defeat in the influencer boxing scene and claimed he was “robbed” of a victory.”
      He said: “Obviously [Tommy Fury’s] a pro boxer.

      “If I won, it’s a mockery for the sport. That’s how they see it.
      “I won it bro. I got robbed. It’s outrageous bro… I was landing the cleanest shots, he couldn’t get any jabs off.” More

      Boxing is set to have an undisputed heavyweight champion for the first time since Lennox Lewis held the crown 25 years ago.
      Joshua’s next fight is against Otto Wallin on December 23 and a win could help him seal a future bout against Fury.
      But in the meantime, AJ is firmly supporting the Ukrainian.
      He told TNT Sports: “I don’t know [who wins] but I’m team Usyk anyway.

      “There’s a respect, but Fury’s said a lot of bad things about me.
      “I’m never going to ride with someone that disrespects me.
      “That would make me a lunatic and I’m pretty level-headed so I’m going to go with the person who shows me respect.”
      Joshua was then quizzed on if he would still be keen to face Fury should Usyk clinch victory.

      He stressed he would be although time is running out for a much-anticipated all British clash.
      AJ said: “For the entertainment factor, yeah.
      “It’s getting drawn out a bit though. They’ll have two fights. The first one and then the rematch. Maybe that’ll be Fury’s only two fights next year.
      “Hopefully he can sneak one in at the end of the year with me, but that draws it out for another twelve months before I see Fury.
      “But we got Deontay Wilder anyway, or we got Joseph Parker. We got other big fights.” More

      Deontay Wilder was knocked out twice by Tyson Fury but reveals no one hit him harder than Frenchman with seven losses

      by

      DEONTAY WILDER is known for his skills as a knockout artist – winning 43 of his 46 bouts by knockout.So when Wilder spoke to TalkSPORT ahead of his fight against Joseph Parker it was natural that they asked him who he’s faced that comes closest to him in terms of power.

      But he revealed no one has hit him harder than Johann DuhaupasCredit: Getty
      Many would have expected the answer to be Tyson Fury – who is the man responsible for Wilder’s two professional losses.
      Fury beat Wilder by TKO in the seventh round in the second bout of their trilogy in 2020.
      He then knocked Wilder out in the 11th round of the third bout of their trilogy.
      But Wilder’s answer as to who he’s faced with the most power will surprise a few.
      READ MORE ON BOXING
      He nominated Johann Duhaupas as the man that punches hardest but initially struggled to recall his name.
      Wilder said: “I would have to say the Frenchman.”
      As Wilder pondered the Frenchman’s name, he then joked: “The hardest punch I’ve taken is taxes, when they take my taxes.”
      But after it came back to him, he said: “That’s it, it’s Johann Duhaupas.

      “That’s the hardest punch I’ve faced in my career thus far.”
      Wilder and Duhaupas clashed in 2015, in Wilder’s second WBC title defence.
      Duhaupas was one of Wilder’s rare opponents that managed to withstand his power and took him deep into the fight – before succumbing to an 11th round Bronze Bomber TKO.
      Wilder had a long run defending his WBC belt, lasting 10 matches before losing it to current holder Fury in 2020.
      He’s currently on the comeback trail and all roads appear to lead to a glamour fight with Anthony Joshua in March.
      Before that though, he’ll have to get past Joseph Parker in their Saudi Arabia bout on December 23. More

      🥊ANTHONY JOSHUA VS OTTO WALLIN: ALL THE DETAILS YOU NEED AHEAD OF THRILLING SAUDI CLASH🥊
      AJ is now set to face Otto Wallin on December 23 and a victory could set up a dream bout with Deontay Wilder, provided the American also beats Joseph Parker on the same card.
      The winner of that tasty heavyweight battle could then go on to lock horns with the victor of the undisputed superfight between the undefeated pair of Tyson Fury and Usyk on February 17.
      But the 34-year-old understands he may have to wait six years before he can regain the WBO, WBA, IBO and IBF belts he lost to the Ukrainian superstar, as the titles will split after the Cat battles Fury.
      Joshua told TNT Sports when asked if he feels he could still be a challenger for the undisputed title: “I used to, but it won’t happen anymore.

      “I think it is because of the reality, because what will happen is that Usyk and Fury are in a position to compete for the undisputed.
      “And once they compete for the undisputed, the belts will get split up again.
      “And I feel [it] will probably take me about maybe five to six years to go through and get all the belts and beat all the independent champions.
      “And that will probably take me until I’m 40 or 41, before I do that again. So I’m just like, it’s probably not in my time frame.”

      I fought Canelo Alvarez and suffered FOUR face fractures… but Mexican star did not punch as hard as rival world champ

      by

      BILLY JOE SAUNDERS was left with FOUR face fractures in defeat to Canelo Alvarez – but it was still not the hardest he has been hit. The two-division champion has not returned since Canelo handed him a brutal first career loss in May 2021.

      An uppercut in round eight saw Saunders unable to continue after his eye was left black and blue.
      But amazingly, the 2008 Olympian claimed David Lemiuex was a harder puncher than the Mexican superstar.
      He said on the “Keep A LukeOut” podcast: “I’ll be honest, when I was in there with him, I was expecting so much more.
      “I remember being in there, it might have been round five and we were [fighting on the] inside and I remember grabbing him and walking him back.

      “I’m not a one-punch knockout man but when it comes to tangling someone up and pushing a pulling, I am very, very good at that, that is one of my best weapons.
      “I remember tying him up and pushing him back and I remember thinking ‘you know what, I am just going to put my hand up here’, a bit of kidology like ‘go on, go on [hit me]’.
      “I was waiting to get hit like I did against David Lemiuex, when I boxed him, I tested some power on my arm and I thought, ‘F*** me’.
