    KSI slams Floyd Mayweather vs Logan Paul bout as YouTube star asks ‘why the f*** would he want to fight second best?’

    YOUTUBE star KSI has slammed the proposed bout between Floyd Mayweather and former foe Logan Paul.
    The 27-year-old has cast doubt on whether the fight will come to fruition, despite reports claiming the exhibition contest will take place later this year.

    KSI has twice fought Paul, drawing in their first meeting, before beating him last year when the pair turned professional.
    And KSI has stated it makes no sense for five-weight world champion Mayweather to return to the ring to face Paul.
    He insisted that it would make more sense for the 1996 Olympic bronze medallist to face him instead.
    Speaking on his second YouTube channel, KSI said: “This ain’t happening.

    “Why the f*** would Mayweather say yes to this? Why would he fight the loser of me and Logan?
    “I was A-side for both fights, surely Mayweather would just wanna fight the winner of me vs Logan, it just makes more sense.
    “Also, Logan Paul can’t sell tickets like me. We all remember how well his ‘Challenger Games’ sold.
    PAUL THE OTHER ONE
    “Whenever I do events like the Sidemen football match, we sell thousands of tickets.

    “I’m the bigger draw when it comes to boxing because I defeated the one who started it – Joe Weller – and defeated Logan Paul himself.
    “So why would Mayweather want to fight second best when he could just easily fight the best?”
    KSI’s former trainer Viddal Riley – who is promoted by Mayweather – confirmed Paul has held talks with ‘Money’ over a bout.
    But he insisted that Mayweather should fight the Arsenal fan ahead of the Maverick.
    He said: “One thing people are, you know, not seeming to understand, Floyd is fighting the loser of the situation.

    “I like Logan, I can say that – but he did lose. He had a draw then he lost. And he’s still generating this attention.
    “What’s happened to the winner? What’s happened to the golden child? Where’s the real money fight?
    “Where’s the real money belt going to be competed for? And that’s with JJ, KSI as we know.”

    Troopz quits Arsenal Fan TV after months of controversy for YouTube channel following Claude sacking

    ARSENAL’S biggest departure of the summer has been announced in the form of AFTV mainstay Troopz.
    While fans are sweating over Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s future, it is the club captain’s YouTuber pal who is leaving for pastures new.

    Troopz is said to have a friendly relationship with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
    In an emotional post to his own channel on Tuesday, Troopz revealed: “I don’t even know how to start this video, it’s quarter past three in the morning.
    “I never thought I’d be doing this video but I’m leaving AFTV.
    “Four years of amazing times, making some great content, meeting some great people along the way.
    “I’m moving to New York, without a date at the moment but it will be in the next few weeks, and I’m going to be doing the same kind of stuff.
    “I’m gonna get a podcast, called Back Again With Troopz.”
    Troopz leaves AFTV with the channel in a curious position among the Gooner fanbase.
    Fans have chanted for the YouTube channel to be kicked out of the club and defender Hector Bellerin is also a critic.

    Many blame the pioneering channel, which was one of the first of its kind when launched in 2012 by DJ Robbie Lyle, for creating a sense of kneejerk anger around the team.

    Amassing a huge 1.23 million YouTube subscribers, many of its regulars have become stars in their own right.
    However, this has not been without controversy amid claims that certain members of the cast, including Troopz, had become too close to the first-team.
    Arsenal captain Aubameyang has been described as a pal of the pundit, leading to reports of a dressing room split.
    And AFTV was forced to sack popular Claude Callegari after a racist remark directed at Tottenham star Son Heung-min during July’s derby.
    Troopz has insisted that his departure was amicable.
    He explained: “It’s the opportunity of a lifetime, I can’t turn this down.

    How is he gonna convince Auba to stay if he can’t stay himself.

    “I don’t want people to think I’m selling out, I don’t want people to think there is beef between me and AFTV, me and Robbie.
    “It’s none of that, if anything I want to big up Robbie because Robbie was the one who gave me this opportunity.”
    He added: “I wish AFTV all the best and Robbie all the best in the future.”
    Fans online showed their support for Troopz in his next venture.

    One viewer wrote: “How is he gonna convince Auba to stay if he can’t stay himself.”
    Luis added: “This is the equivalent of Thierry Henry leaving us for Barcelona.”
    Twitter user Dean posted: “So wait all that agent Troopz work and you’re the one who ends up leaving, major plot twist! All the best mate enjoy NYC good luck with it.”
    While Kurtis commented: “2020 just keeps giving more and more heartbreaking moments…”
