    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.

    Final word
    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.

    It’s over!
    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.
    .Credit: PA
    Fight of the night
    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.

    YouTube star Ryan Taylor left with horror swollen eye and beaten by KSI’s ex-opponent Swarmz on MisFits undercard

    The rapper, 26, was mocked for his unorthodox and inexperienced style but vowed to prove the doubters wrong.
    And he did so in controversial style as a jab in the first round left Taylor, 29, with swelling so bad the referee deemed him unable to continue.
    Per the rules, as the shot was a punch and not an accidental blow – such as a headbutt or elbow – Swarmz was declared the winner.
    He said: “It was a jab, a touch, we’ll call it a little touch.

    “But you know what? I’ve been working hard for this, everyone saw me get battered against KSI, making fun of me calling me a ballerina.
    “It’s been playing on my mind and I had to get redemption.”
    Swarmz, 26, called out Deji, 26, the brother to KSI, 29, who was sitting ringside, as well as YouTuber King Kenny.
    He said: “Next fight I’m ready. Where’s Deji? Where’s Kenny?”

    Swarmz now moves to 1-1 as a crossover boxer following his win on KSI’s undercard.

    Aiden ‘LikkleMan’ Henry is 3ft PPV star who spent time in prison before training with Conor Benn and Anthony Yarde

    AT just 3ft tall Aiden ‘LikkleMan’ Henry is the most unlikely pay-per-view boxing star imaginable but his story is every inch as impressive as the fight game’s giant heroes.Born with dwarfism in Coventry 28 years ago, Henry suffered such heartbreaking rejection from the people who should have loved and protected him most.
    Aiden ‘LikkleMan’ Henry was born with dwarfism  in Coventry 28 years agoCredit: Instagram / @likklemangram
    It was only in local gangs that he was able to find any protection from the bullies who wanted to take liberties with him.
    A life of crime and prison sentence for burglary followed but while caged he posted a string of madcap videos that earned support from champion boxers and music stars.
    Since his release in March 2019, Henry has turned his life around, apologised for his crimes and trained with stars like Conor Benn and Anthony Yarde.
    And his huge social media following – which includes almost 560,000 plus Instagram fans – shows he’s more popular than ever.
    The fact he gatecrashed BDave’s weigh-in for his upcoming Misfits Boxing night on Saturday – shoving the influencer before tackling him down to the ground with a double-leg takedown would have endeared him to the public even more.
    Henry told SunSport back in 2020: “I was born fighting, when you are born half the size of a normal man you have to fight twice as hard to get anywhere in life.
    “I was born into a life of gangs, drugs and crime, like a lot of people are in certain areas. But on top of that I am this size.
    “I didn’t go to school, I can’t read or write, I didn’t have parents.

    British welterweight ace Conor Benn also welcomed Henry into the Matchroom gymCredit: Instagram / @likklemangram
    “I have matured a lot now but my brain is definitely wired differently to everyone else.
    “I’ve had 25 bad years behind me, I have had to apologise for a lot of things I am sorry for, but now I have this chance to turn my life around and I am going to take it.”
    Henry comes close to getting deep on his early struggles but pulls himself back, his hard-man outlook ingrained long before he ever picked up a pair of gloves.
    The reformed bad-boy will not offer up sob stories but he is proud he has made his area proud and wants to use his platform to apologise to anyone he wronged.
    He said: “Anyone who knows my story will hopefully respect me more now because they will know what I went through.
    “I was a little f***er, I have to admit I was a little b******. And I am sorry to all the people I hurt in the past but I had to do certain things to feed myself and survive.
    “I committed burglaries because I had no other way to live, I couldn’t do just one £1m robbery because it would be too easy to spot the 3ft black man in the police line-up.
    “But that is my past, I am thankful for how it made me but that’s behind me and this golden ticket is helping me change my life.”

    LikkleMan insists he is not a circus act being exploited, his social media power means he is in control of his second career and he has big dreams once crowds are allowed in events.
    Coventry City fans have to travel to Birmingham to watch their football team but Henry reckons his particular charms could give them a great showdown closer to home.
    He said: “I could sell out the Ricoh Arena, definitely.
    “Because I am small but confident with it, people have never seen that combination and are intrigued.
    “Girls are fascinated about whether things are in proportion, it’s just my everyday life.
    “From a very young age I have been aggressive because of how I have been treated.
    “Now I can hopefully make that work for me and better my life, because that is all I have wanted the chance to do.” More

    KSI reveals his five conditions to fight Jake Paul in YouTube grudge match including fight purse, location and weight

    Negotiations are underway behind the scenes, but KSI has not been shy of revealing his terms in the open.
    He told talkSPORT: “Ideal scenario is to fight at this weight, 177.5lbs, or I might push it to 180lbs, that’s ideal for me.
    “I want it to be in the UK. In terms of a split, I’ll be fair 50/50, I don’t want to be a d***. I think that’s reasonable.
    “But, I have to be first on the bill, it has to be KSI vs Jake Paul and I walk in last.”
    READ MORE IN BOXING
    KSI, 29, returns to the ring tonight at Wembley Arena against gamer Faze Temperrr, 29, and does so at 175lb.
    Paul’s last fight, a win over 47-year-old UFC legend Anderson Silva, was at a career-lowest 187lb.
    So it means he would need to come down in weight to meet KSI, who would be putting size on.
    And while splitting the prize money down the middle seems fair enough, the location of the bout could strike problems.

    There is more money to be made in America, which Paul, 25, is ready to capitalise on unless an agreement is soon struck.
    He tweeted: “I sent KSI and his team a contract over a month ago. I offered to come to the UK, 185 pounds and 10 rounds.
    “I have been at 8 rounds since Askren. He and his team have yet to respond.
    “The offer was / is to come to the UK in December 2023. If he doesn’t respond next week after his show, then it’s going to have to be in the US.”
    Paul has also in the past confirmed he is willing to concede terms as the B-side, allowing KSI to walk in last and be named on the posters first.
    The fierce feud dates back to 2018, when KSI’s brother Deji, 26, was beaten by the American.
    On the same night, KSI also drew with Paul’s brother Logan, 27, but won the rematch a year later when they turned professional.
    The KSI and Logan are now friends and business partners following the successful launch of hydration drink Prime.
    But there is no love lost for Paul, who has since gone 6-0 in the period of KSI’s boxing absence.
