      KSI announces next boxing fight this summer with YouTuber looking to add to unbeaten record after Logan Paul win

      by

      BRITISH YouTube star KSI has announced he will make his boxing return on August 27. KSI – real name Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji – last boxed in 2019 beating Logan Paul in a scrappy split-decision win.

      He has since focussed on his fledging music career which has ruled out a comeback to the ring.
      But KSI has now confirmed he WILL fight again and teased his return against an unnamed opponent with a social media video.
      He captioned the post: “I’m back.”
      KSI, 28, first boxed in a white collar bout in 2018 against online rival Joe Weller, 26, winning with a third round TKO.

      The same year, he drew against American Paul, 27, in Manchester which set up their rematch a year later.
      But controversially, the pair turned professional with Anthony Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn staging the fight.
      It again went the six round distance with KSI recovering from a knockdown to beat Paul, who suffered had a two point deduction.
      KSI was then lined up to fight his brother Jake, 25, who in 2020 beat the Londoner’s friend “AnEsonGib”.

      The grudge match never materialised but Jake has since improved to 5-0, as the most successful boxer who transitioned from the YouTube space.
      Jake now advises social media influencer Alex Wassabi, 31, who recently beat KSI’s brother Deji.
      The celebrity prizefighter is now advising Wassabi and brokering talks for a fight against KSI.
      Jake told The Mirror: “We’re shooting for that KSI fight in August.
      “I think it could very easily happen, it’s just from KSI’s side him actually getting in the ring, he keeps on talking about it and he’s been talking about it for what seems like years now.
      “So who knows if he actually is going to put down the microphone and pick up the boxing gloves.
      “Because there’s a lot at risk for him and I don’t think his ego can take a loss, so I don’t know if the money is going to be worth him losing in the ring.”

      Both training teams instantly pounced on the individual before the fan was bashed with a stool to the head.
      Security then removed him from the ring during the main event of the latest Showstar Boxing card.
      The ring announcer took to the mic to plead for calm and warned that the fight would not be restarted until things calmed down.
      The action did eventually resume before KSI’s brother Deji suffered a third successive defeat as two of the judges sided with debutant Wassabi.
      The pair have now agreed a rematch following the farcical scenes last night.
      Wassabi said: “I did great, I didn’t know who was going to win at the end. I didn’t realise how tough it was going to be.

      “These people love their people and they showed it; I didn’t hear my name once.
      “Deji, I just wanted to compete and if it wasn’t for you that dream wouldn’t have come true.
      “I want to get back in… I don’t know when the next YouTube event is.”
      Deji said: “I guess I think too much when I box and I don’t punch enough. Alex did well, I can’t dispute that.”
      He had previously promised to quit boxing if he tasted defeat against Wassabi.
      But after the crowd gave him a resounding ‘Yes’ when he asked if he should pull on the gloves again, the pair are now set to clash another time.
      Wassabi agreed to a rematch before Deji added:”If you guys want me to fight again, I’ll show you what I can do.” More

      Deji has said: “I’m going to be fighting main event on the Showstar UK vs USA event at the Wembley SSE Arena.

      And this was following a fifth round loss courtesy of Jake Paul back in 2018 on the undercard of KSI vs Logan Paul.
      But now, KSI’s little brother is hoping to prove to his 9.8 million subscribers that he can bounce back from losing his “Battle of the Platforms” bout.
      However, challenger Wassabi previously announced that he had been training for years which makes it an intriguing match-up.

      Aaron Chalmers reveals talks with Tommy Fury but still eyes life-changing fight with Jake Paul and Love Islanders

      by

      AARON CHALMERS is now in position to set himself up with life-changing fights with stars from the YouTube and reality TV world. Chalmers, 34, has now confirmed his switch from MMA to professional boxing, signing for promotional company Boxxer and Sky Sports.
      Former reality TV star Aaron Chalmers, 34, has confirmed his move from MMA to boxing
      It is the latest chapter in his prizefighting career, which started in 2017 with an MMA debut and will now carry on into the ring.
      But Chalmers almost began his boxing career with a mega-fight against fellow influencer Tommy Fury.
      He verbally agreed to face Fury, 22, while out of shape weighing 14st and having never boxed before.
      But after meeting with trainer Adam Booth in the following days and revealing his plan, the esteemed boxing brain put a stop to that.
      Chalmers told SunSport: “I met Adam a week later, and he said, ‘No chance’. It was not in my favour whatsoever.”
      What followed for Chalmers was 17 months under the watchful eye of Booth, who famously led David Haye to a heavyweight world title.

      He is set to make his pro boxing debut this April in the middleweight division as the latest high-profile name to sign with Sky Sports.
      Chalmers helped headline MMA shows in his home of Newcastle – as well as London and Dublin – with the backing of his Geordie Shore fanbase.
      And re-igniting talks with Fury, brother to heavyweight champion Tyson, could be another way of introducing boxing to a new set of eyeballs.
      Chalmers said: “I don’t know Tommy, but I know he probably gets as much stick as I do.
      “So maybe that’s something we can look at down the line. He’s a big lad, stuff like that, it interests us.
      “Because it’s a challenge, it’s a big fight, maybe not for so-called ‘boxing fans’.
      “But I’ll bring Geordie Shore fans to the boxing, which is not a bad thing.”

      Chalmers is surrounded by elite boxing talent like Michael Conlan, Liam Williams and Josh Kelly at Booth’s Surrey-based gym.
      He lives nearby, but that comes at the cost of spending only one weekend every fortnight back home with his partner Talia and their three kids.
      But with the likes of YouTuber Jake Paul, 25, bringing millions of pounds to any opponent he faces, it offers Chalmers the ultimate reward.
      Chalmers, who has 2million Instagram followers, said: “The sacrifices were made because I knew what could come, I’m looking at how boxing is going.
      “Obviously, you’ve got your Jake Pauls and all that, going down that route. If one of them fights come up, that’s my family sorted for life.
      “Not that I’m chasing that from the off, but I know with the right noise made, something like that could happen.
      “Then the sacrifices would be worth it, as I’d never have to work a day in my life again.”

      Paul’s coach BJ Flores is an old friend of Chalmers’ manager Booth, potentially making the fight easier to negotiate.
      Love Island winner Jack Fincham, 30, is another celeb with a boxing background, looking to get in the ring again.
      But despite the list of big-money bouts on offer to Chalmers, winning a prestigious domestic belt, like the famed English or British titles, could be just as rewarding.
      Chalmers said: “By all means, if Adam and I thought in two or three years time, I was ready, then 100 per cent I would never shy away from trying to earn a belt.
      “For someone who started boxing at 33 years old I would f***ing love to retire with a British or English title.
      “For me that is a big, big step, but we’ll see. Along with those fights, you’ve also got Jack Fincham, and other fighters in boxing we can look at.
      “I’m just excited, I’m so glad it’s been announced.”
