      KSI’s coach warns Jake Paul and Tommy Fury that YouTuber is ‘heavy-handed’ and KNOCKING OUT ‘legit boxers’ in sparring

      by

      KSI is so heavy-handed he is knocking out legitimate competition in the gym, his trainer Alexis Demetriades said. The YouTube star first linked up with Demetriades at the London Shootfighters gym three years ago, before making his boxing return.

      The pair now enter their toughest test together, against millionaire nightclub tycoon-turned 9-0 boxer Joe Fournier on Saturday.
      And KSI has been put through his paces in the gym to prepare, which he has brutally passed with flying colours.

      Demetriades told SunSport: “He’s naturally an aggressive person and he’s got very heavy hands
      “That’s coming from somebody who has coached at a world-class level, the kid is actually heavy-handed.
      READ MORE IN boxing
      “He’s sparring professional boxers, that are 12-0, 13-0 and he’s holding his own. He’s knocking guys out, legit boxers, who are 7-0s, 8-0s.
      “And he’s doing it in 20-ounce gloves because the kid punches hard, legitimately.”
      KSI – nicknamed JJ – has been building a reputation for himself behind closed doors in secret sparring sessions.
      Demetriades revealed: “One hundred per cent, there’s loads of people that will tell you about JJ’s sparring.
      Most read in Boxing
      CASINO SPECIAL – BEST ONLINE CASINOS FOR 2023
      “Ask Idris Virgo, who is 13-0, he’ll tell you.”
      KSI, 29, has boxed six times with five wins and one draw, which came to Logan Paul, 28, in 2018 but was avenged in their rematch.
      The Londoner has other wins over YouTubers, Joe Weller and Faze Temperr as well as boxer Luis Pineda and rapper Swarmz.
      But Fournier, 40, will be his first opponent with professional boxing experience and as a result may allow KSI to flurish.
      Demetriades said: “I think you find timing on someone who has timing. When a guy throws a straight punch, you can get timing on that.
      “I think when Joe comes out and throws traditional punches, JJ will get his timing.”
      KSI had hoped to finally settle his bitter score with Jake Paul, 26, in a grudge match at the end of the year.
      But Paul, 26, suffered his first defeat in February, losing a split-decision to Tommy Fury, 24, in Saudi Arabia.
      He’s sparring professional boxers, that are 12-0, 13-0 and he’s holding his own. He’s knocking guys out, legit boxers, who are 7-0s, 8-0s.KSI’s coach Alexis Demetriades
      The American is now set to return on August 5 in Texas against ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, 38.
      So KSI has revealed he is now setting his sights on fighting Fury and has the backing of his coach.
      Demetriades said: “I think Tommy Fury is a massively interesting fight as well.
      “If you put him in a fight for the British title, do you think Tommy could win the British title at that weight? No, no way.
      “So he’s found the right place to be, the influencer space is right for Tommy and I think stylistically, he’s right for JJ as well.”
      Fury – brother to heavyweight champion Tyson – proved a step too far for prankster-gone puncher Paul.
      But Demetriades has no fear in putting KSI in there with the 9-0 former Love Islander.
      He said: “You’ve got to go down the Tommy Fury route because he’s the guy that beat Jake Paul.
      “And, he barely beat him, right? As in the judges gave it a split, however you might have looked at it, it was a split-decision.

      Tyson Fury suffers double blow in plans for next fight and could be forced to face underwhelming opponent

      by

      TYSON FURY has been hit with a double blow in his search for a summer return fight. The Gypsy King is looking to defend his WBC title in July after talks for a unification bout with Oleksandr Usyk collapsed earlier in the year.
      Tyson Fury with promoter Frank WarrenCredit: PA
      Now, Usyk, 36, has been ordered into a WBA mandatory defence against Daniel Dubois, 25, with talks ongoing.
      It left Andy Ruiz Jr and Zhilei Zhang as frontrunners to face Fury.
      But Joe Joyce has exercised his rematch clause with Zhang and Frank Warren told Boxing News that Ruiz has priced himself out.
      It leaves the Hall of Fame promoter heading back to the drawing board.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      He said: “I want to get him [Fury] out whatever happens and get back in the swing of things. It’s just a bloody shame we wasted so much time [on the Usyk fight].
      “The problem we’ve got is the ones we wanted are all fighting.
      “The Zhang fight, Joe Joyce, I wouldn’t have gone with Joe next, he’ll have to get a win first and obviously Daniel.
      “We’ll have a look around and see what’s available.”
      Most read in Boxing

      Joyce, 37, was beaten by Zhang, 40, in April after his eye was swollen so badly the referee waved off the contest.
      The Chinese star then emerged as a contender to fight Fury, 34, until Joyce activated his right to a rematch.
      And with Ruiz, 33, also now seemingly out of the equation, it leaves Warren short of options but adamant Fury WILL still fight.
      He said: “We’re getting very close [to summer], that’s part of the problem, but we’ll get him out.”
      Meanwhile, talks are taking place behind the scenes with boxing bosses in Saudi Arabia.
      They hope to negotiate a deal for Anthony Joshua, 33, to fight Deontay Wilder, 37, in the Middle East in December.
      And they also have plans for Fury and Usyk to finally meet, as US promoter Bob Arum confirmed talks with the Saudis.
      Arum told Ringside Reporter Live: “I have talked to a representative of Skill Challenge that puts on these boxing events in Saudi Arabia.

      “That is correct [that talks are ongoing], we know these people, we work with them in connection with the Jake Paul and Tommy Fury fight as far as US television was concerned. 
      “So we know who the players are and we’ve had some very interesting talks with them.”

      Rapper-turned boxer Swarmz shows off insane body transformation after shedding two stone for fight against Deji

      by

      RAPPER Swarmz has undergone an insane body transformation ahead of his next fight. The musician was thrown into the ring on just two weeks notice in August when he filled in to fight KSI on short notice.

      And the raw novice was ridiculed for his performance, with his inexperience on show in the round two loss.
      But Swarmz – real name Brandon Scott – vowed to come back stronger and refused to give up.
      He returned once more in January and beat YouTuber Ryan Taylor after the first punch he threw caused a brutal eye injury.
      It earned Swarmz a crack at redemption and a co-headliner fight against KSI’s brother Deji.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      He weighed in at 199lb (14st 2lb) before losing to KSI but now faces Deji at 170lb (12st 2lb).
      It means Swarmz, 26, will have lost an astonishing TWO STONE by the time he laces up the gloves for the third time.
      And the Londoner wants to go full circle by eyeing a rematch with KSI, 29, if he can get past brother Deji, 26.

      He told media: “I’m going to beat Deji and then I’m going to take the mic and call out KSI straight away.

      “That’s the main guy that’s on my card right now, I just want my revenge, simple as.”
      Swarmz commented on his drastic transformation and questioned Deji’s work ethic.
      He said: “Deji, I don’t focus on what he does. This is all about me, not Deji. I don’t care, I’ve trained, I’m in shape.
      “He doesn’t look like he’s in shape but anyways, May 13th we’ll go.”

      Cason sparred with KSI, who is fighting Joe Fournier this weekend, in 2019 before the Brit’s points win over Logan Paul.
      And he then traded punches with the Problem Child prior to the American’s knockout victory in his rematch with Tyron Woodley in December 2021.
      Speaking ahead of KSI’s TWO victories against Swarmz and Luis Pineda back in August, Cason lauded his punching power.
      Appearing on a Twitter space with Happy Punch Promotions via the Mirror, Cason – who has won all ten of his fights inside the ring – said: “That boy KSI hits hard.

      “He got that African strength, I got to give it to him.”
      Cason, whose nephew Hasim Rahman Jr saw his fight with Jake fall through, then stated how he believes Paul would knock KSI out should they ever come to blows.

      He bases his opinion on Jake being more experienced inside the ring.
      The cruiserweight remarked: “I’m a keep it honest, I got Jake. KSI is strong as hell, he has a hell of a right hand.
      “So does Jake, but I think Jake has better boxing because he’s been in it longer and has taken it more seriously.
      “I’d go with Jake Paul to beat him by knockout, unless KSI shows some better skills I think that Jake has just surpassed him right now.
      “I’ve seen Jake take a punch where I’m like ‘oh that would have knocked KSI out’ because I have hurt KSI with a punch. I don’t that KSI has a chin like that.
      “Jake’s got heart, KSI has heart too and I’m not taking anything anyway from him. Both of them have come into the sport and been on a stage bigger than a lot of us [professionals].” More

      And KSI has prepared from head to toe for the toughest bout of his career, more specifically his neck.
      At the pre-fight workout, he rolled around the boxing ring canvas with his weight on his neck, an exercise famously used by Tyson.

      The aim of the drill is to build up muscles in the neck, making it easier to withstand punches.
      Tyson – the youngest heavyweight champion aged 20 – once had a 20-INCH neck by 18.
