So he hasn’t thrown me under the bus. I’m always ready to go.”In certain fights, I do get called in to put it together, Tommy Fury was one last year, which obviously wasn’t exactly a small one.Most read in SportCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS”It’s sometimes the old experience, there’s been three decades in boxing promotion.

      Floyd Mayweather among SIX names in line to fight KSI on boxing return… with YouTuber out to ‘overcome the odds’

      by

      FLOYD MAYWEATHER is on a six-man list of names in line to fight KSI. YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI was forced to pull out of his August 31 return after suffering a hand injury. Floyd Mayweather is in the frame to fight KSICredit: GettyKSI is hoping to make a boxing return in 2025Credit: GettyAnd he is hoping to be back by next year with talks already underway for who will be his opponent.His manager Mams Taylor – who co-founded Misfits Boxing with KSI – teased it will be a superstar name with a fierce reputation. Taylor told SunSport: “It’s gonna be someone big, someone who’s a challenge, someone who people will think is the impossible for a YouTuber to beat.”And I think that’s what KSI loves. He loves overcoming the odds, he loves the challenge. He loves proving people wrong.READ MORE IN BOXING”And I think – despite the actual result of the night – most people thought he won that fight in his last fight and he was a heavy underdog in that one so you know more of that to come.” KSI, 31, is yet to return since suffering defeat for the first time, losing a controversial decision to Tommy Fury, 25, in October. He was due to face TikToker Slim Albaher and ex-MMA fighter Anthony Taylor in a wild two-on-one bout before injury. That was after talks to fight retired British former world champion Amir Khan collapsed. Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSBut Khan, 37, and Mayweather, 47, remain in the frame for KSI. Taylor revealed: “Amir is on the hit-list, Floyd is on the hit list for KSI. These are two out of 5/6 guys that we’re all looking at very closely.”Mayweather officially retired in 2017 after beating UFC legend Conor McGregor, 36, but he has continued to box in exhibitions since. They have come against opponents from the social media, MMA and boxing world – including KSI’s brother Deji. But KSI fumed at the way Mayweather refused to take it easy on his inexperienced brother – and is out for redemption in the ring. Taylor said: “I mean, he was technically the best defensive boxer in history and arguably ever all around. “And it’d be an honour to work with him in that capacity with JJ and him if that ever happens.”And to be honest with you, that was how Deji was thinking, I’m a promoter. I can say that. “Deji was in awe of Floyd, KSI wouldn’t be in awe of Floyd.
