      And he captioned the clip: “Training with the GOAT.”
      Tommy, 24, is coming off victory over Jake Paul, 26, by split-decision in their Saudi Arabia celebrity grudge match in February.
      But Paul snubbed a rematch to instead return on August 5 in Texas against ex-UFC fighter Nate Diaz, 38.
      So Tommy has turned his attention to KSI, who revealed talks are progressing between them.

      KSI, 30, told his Misfits Boxing YouTube channel: “I am training for that fight.
      “Negotiations are going back and forth, we’re just waiting on Tommy essentially.
      “We’ve just gotta do a few things to make sure it’s all perfect, but it’s very, very close.
      “I’m training, I’m getting ready for that fight, that’s what I want.”

      His manager Mams Taylor added: “We’ve gone back and forth and negotiated and now we’ve agreed to all the changes that they’ve requested.
      “I don’t think there’s anything more other than for the ink to dry for both guys to make this happen.”
      And Tommy’s dad and trainer John told SecondsOut: “Well, we’re nearly over the line with that one I think.
      “Me and the Sauerlands, we’re nearly over the line with it. I think it’ll be announced very shortly.
      “Until it’s signed off, nothing’s done, is it? But I’m happy, we’re nearly there. We’ll hopefully get it on this year with him and KSI.”

      But Chalmers already has an all-celeb bout against 2018 Love Island winner Jack Fincham to follow.
      He told SunSport: “I have a date for me and Jack.
      “Me and Jack is pencilled in. The date is set, the undercard is apparently set. I’m 95 per cent certain the fight is happening.
      “The date is all pencilled in and everything, the arena is picked. Jack will be the fight after Kiefer.”

      Fincham boxed as an amateur in his teenage years but returned to the ring last November.
      He shared four rounds with MMA fighter and crossover boxer Anthony Taylor, 34, in Dubai on Floyd Mayweather’s undercard.
      And this February, Chalmers, 36, went six exhibition rounds with boxing legend Mayweather, 46, at London’s O2 Arena.
      He wants four fights this year and already has two secured, starting with Crosbie, 33, and then Fincham, 32.

      Chalmers said: “It’s a good fight more for my pro fight that one. He’s got a TV background, he was Love Island, I was Geordie Shore. 
      “It’s a good fight all round, for money, sponsors, to push on in the influencer boxing.” 
      Chalmers struck an agreement to fight Fincham on Instagram and he insists there will be no hard feelings until the bell rings.
      He said: “I don’t mind him. I’m not one of these people that really hates anyone I’m going to fight. 
      “We’re all in this for the same thing. Unfortunately when it comes to fight night there can only be one winner, so you’ve got to put everything aside. 
      “So I don’t mind Jack. I know he’s had a rough couple of years in his personal life, from what I’ve seen online. 
      “If he’s trying to better himself by getting in the ring, then so be it. He’s got a hard fight to come back to, which is me.”

      When asked if he’d been offered the fight, he told talkSPORT: “Nope. Not once [has he been in contact.]
      “I think I saw a tweet the other day that he wants to run it back in a year’s time, but as far as I’m concerned we were meant to be running it back a few months later.”
