      According to reports, it was a success at the box office with 1.3million PPVs sold worldwide.
      As a result, KSI’s manager and co-owner of Misfits, Mams Taylor, revealed they are planning for a Prime card 2.
      So here, SunSport looks at what fans could expect from the second instalment.
      KSI vs Jake Paul
      It would be the Super Bowl of influencer boxing and the mother of all YouTube grudge matches.

      The feud has been brewing since Jake, 26, vowed to avenge brother Logan’s 2019 loss to KSI, 30.
      But the mega bout has so far failed to get over the line as talks between the two camps continue to stall.
      The Prime Card 2 could be the perfect place to finally settle their score.

      KSI vs Tommy Fury 2
      Many felt Fury, 24, was fortunate to leave Manchester with a points victory and his reputation more-or-less intact.

      The six-rounder was mighty close and would warrant a rematch, with more questions being left than answers.
      KSI has appealed his loss but all signs could point to a rematch.
      Fury has also refused to rule out a second fight in the days since his win.

      Logan Paul vs Tommy Fury
      Fury has now beaten Logan’s brother in Jake and Prime business partner KSI.
      It sets up an excellent storyline for Logan, 28, to come in and try to avenge the losses of those closest to him.
      Logan was asked about a fight with Tommy after beating Danis, 30, but he appeared ready to allow Jake a shot at redemption.
      However, if Jake and KSI do finally get a deal over the line it could pave the way for Logan to be the latest to try and derail Fury.

      Elle Brooke vs Astrid Wett
      The history between the two OnlyFans stars-turned-boxers dates back to the summer of 2022 when they were lined up to fight.
      Wett eventually pulled out and the bad blood has since brewed.
      The Chelsea fan, 23, is now 3-0 in the ring while Brooke, 25, is 3-1 having both emerged as big names in the scene.
      It would set up the biggest women’s influencer bout despite the two needing to agree on a fight weight.
      Astrid Wett could finally face off with Elle Brooke
      AnEsonGib vs Slim Albaher
      Gib, 26, has emerged as one of the best boxers from the influencer scene with six wins and only one loss, coming to Jake Paul in 2020.
      Slim, 29, is also a two-division Misfits champion and recently scored a big KO upset against Salt Papi, 29.

      But Molly-Mae admitted she watched none of the bout itself as she stared at the ground in distress.
      She said in a vlog: “I more than anything slightly embarrassed myself as Tommy’s support system at the fight because honestly my head was on the ground the whole entire fight. 
      “I physically could not lift up my chin to look at the ring and watch the fight. I don’t know what happens to me in those situations. 
      “When I was younger I used to compete in competitive sports – I quit all of them – because I hate that like competition feeling I hated that environment it used to give me anxiety. I didn’t like the feeling of like being in competition with anyone.

      “It’s just typical that my fiance is a boxer and I’m now like plummeted with no choice back into that lifestyle. 
      “I wouldn’t change it for the world because I know it makes him so happy and I’ve been over this quite a few times now but I just find it quite hard.”
      Molly-Mae stayed strong up until the first bell rang as emotions took over.
      She said: “I feel like I kind of let myself down.

      “I really wanted to be like a strong support system for him on Saturday and I felt like I was just up until the point of the actual fight…
      “Honestly guys, I was a mess, a literal mess. I couldn’t eat, couldn’t speak, literally felt like I was going to faint, be sick. 
      “I don’t know why I get so nervous and it wasn’t like the actual fight. I think it’s just feeling the pressure of being his support system and being the one that truly knows how he feels and knows him inside out. I don’t know what’s going on with this it’s just a mad feeling.”
      Fury, 24, moved out of the £3.5million mansion he shares with Molly-Mae, also 24, and their baby daughter Bambi in Chesire.
      And he is now considering his options having beaten social media sensations KSI, 30, and Jake Paul, 26, within the same year.
      But KSI has now launched an appeal following his loss which proved to be controversial.

      As a rematch remains in the pipeline, Molly-Mae will have to prepare for another nerve-wracking fight night.
      She said: “I’ll be honest though it’s probably the last time I will ever go to a fight – I say that – it won’t be because I will drag myself there like I did with this one.”

      KSI hires lawyer as he starts legal battle to appeal Tommy Fury fight result after controversial defeat

      by

      KSI has hired a lawyer to start a legal battle to appeal his controversial loss Tommy Fury. On the night, Fury was awarded a majority-decision win after two judges scored it in his favour with one card read out a draw.

      It was eventually overturned to a unanimous after it was revealed the even score was actually totted up wrong.
      KSI was left raging after the result was read out and warned that he would launch an appeal with the Professional Boxing Association.
      The PBA – who sanctioned the bout – announced Chase DeMoor, Alexia Grace and Alex Wassabi had all launched appeals.
      And KSI’s manager Mams Taylor revealed they are in the process of doing the same after hiring legal help.

      Taylor posted: “JJ has instructed a King’s Counsel who advised the PBA yesterday that he would be appealing the result of the fight.
      “For obvious reasons, we will not get into the specifics of the appeal publicly and allow the process to play out in accordance with PBA rules.”
      Fury, 24, threw more punches at 159 compared to KSI’s 124 and landed one more shot at 38.
      But he was less accurate with 25 per cent of his punches landing with KSI’s connecting with 31 per cent.

      He said: “We’re going to appeal. I want to appeal. I’m sorry, that is outrageous. We need to see it again. I felt like I won that.”
      KSI, 30, later broke his social media silence and put on Instagram: “Appreciate all the kind messages from everyone.
      “In the ring and watching it back I feel like I should have won. Either way I feel like I accomplished what I wanted to in the end.
      “This little untalented nerd was able go toe to toe with a professional boxer.
      “Use me as the living proof that hard work and self belief can get you anywhere in this life.”

      And following the tight split-decision win, he was challenged by Paul’s bitter enemy KSI, 30.
      Again Fury walked away with a razor thin victory on the scorecards – and, according to Hearn, another healthy payday in the process.
      Speaking on The Overlap, he said: “Tommy is a professional boxer, but he’s terrible. He’s absolutely swam the channel.
      “He’s gone from making £40,000/£50,000 per fight to making £4million/£5m to fight a YouTuber.”

      It has seen him break into the new wave of celebrity influencers fighting which brings in millions of viewers and pounds.
      And Hearn defended the crossover clashes amid ridicule from boxing purists – having called Fury “terrible” just days after his KSI victory.
      He said: “The ones that understand the bigger picture and the marketing side of sport get it.

      “But, a lot of them are very unhappy about it. They feel like it’s very unfair.

      “It doesn’t work like that. This guy has built his profile, his business and his following to a point where he has earnt to right to do whatever he wants. 
      “I don’t agree with the whole, it’s not fair, it’s taking opportunities away from boxers. I like to say, put it over there.
      “It’s an entertainment format and we are keeping the sport great over here.”

      Usyk has two points victories over Joshua and believes Wilder’s feared power is the difference between the two.
      He said on his YouTube channel: “It would’ve been a phenomenal match. Wilder’s unique line’s if Wilder clips, one’s unable to fight back.
      “I’m going with Wilder on 60 per cent for the contest. He’s a puncher, and Joshua could be set upon.
      “Deontay’s able to send someone flying when he touches one. They usually fly.”
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      AJ most recently knocked out Robert Helenius, 39, in August after seven rounds and looked on course to face Wilder, 37, next.
      But after talks with Saudi Arabian backers broke down, promoter Eddie Hearn warned the dream bout faces postponement.
      And Hearn revealed Joshua, 34, could instead be back in an interim bout in December after targeting March or April for a fight with Wilder.
      But AJ could also turn his attention to IBF mandatory challenger Filip Hrgovic, 31, as an alternative.

      Fury, 35, and Usyk, 36, have signed for an undisputed title decider in Saudi Arabia.
      So Hrgovic is in line to fight for the IBF “interim” belt which guarantees him a shot at the champion.
      Or he will inherit the full title if the victor of the unification was to be stripped or vacated.
      Hearn wants Joshua in a build-up fight before moving onto either Wilder or an IBF title shot.
      He revealed:”I think realistically December/January will be the date for his next fight, and then he’ll fight Deontay Wilder or he’ll fight for the IBF world heavyweight title.
      “He wants to become heavyweight champion, he wants to fight Deontay Wilder, he wants to fight Tyson Fury.
      “But he also wants to stay active, and that’s what he’s asked me to do to try and get him in the ring as soon as possible.”

      Tommy came out the winner on the night after scoring a narrow points victory, with a fuming KSI taking to Instagram after the bout to say he had been “robbed” of victory.
      In a video posted to John’s X account, the father of Tommy and Tyson said: “This is a quick video for KSI. You owe me £200,000. We had a bet. I want paying.
      “Now don’t be like the other fella Jake Paul. Be a man and pay your bets. We had a bet live on a podcast, we’ve got all the evidence there, we’ll put it all together.
      “You owe me, John Fury, £200,000. I want paying. Thank you very much.”
      READ MORE ON BOXING
      The “podcast” John was referring to was a Twitch stream hosted by controversial streamer Adin Ross.
      John appeared in the stream alongside his son Tommy as they verbally went toe to toe with KSI.
      Fury said: “I will bet you $200,000 that he beats the s**t out of you. It’s only 200,000 because I’m not as rich as you guys. I’m only a working man.”
      KSI responded: “You know what? Deal. I’ll take your deal.”

      KSI then said he would give John’s bet to charity if he won.
      As of yet, KSI has not responded to John’s demands to be paid for the bet.
      John played an extremely active role in the promotion for the fight and was frequently in altercations with the YouTuber, turned musician, turned boxer.
      He was seen trying to smash down a glass cage that separated Tommy from KSI as he attempted to scrap with Tommy’s opponent as the two faced-off.
      John also threw a bottle at KSI earlier in the promotion for the fight which prompted KSI to spit at John.
      While the fight between Tommy and KSI may be over, it seems that a feud between John and KSI is just opening up. More

      Eddie Hearn reckons Fury is a “TERRIBLE” boxerCredit: STICK TO FOOTBALL PODCAST
      Professional boxer Fury – the brother of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson – put himself under immense pressure to stop KSI in the weeks leading up to the bout.
      But the 24-year-old failed to deliver in what proved to be a clinch-athon of a fight, which will have done incredibly little to change Matchroom Boxing chief Hearn’s opinion of his skills.
      During an appearance on the Stick to Football podcast, Hearn said of Fury: “Yes, he’s a professional boxer, but he’s terrible.
      “He’s absolutely swam the channel.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      “He’s gone from making, I don’t know, £50,000 a fight to making £4/£5m to fight a YouTuber.”
      Hearn’s broadcast partners DAZN have embraced the controversial influencer boxing world, much to the annoyance of boxing purists.
      But he insists it won’t overtake traditional boxing – despite its immense popularity among Gen Zers.
      He said: “I think it’s a threat – anything that is going to deliver numbers.
      Most read in Boxing

      “You have to remember that the people that make boxing grow as a sport are the broadcasters.
      “As long as there is investment from the broadcasters, the sport will continue to flourish.
      “Then there is something else that brings numbers, and any broadcasters that look at it, they don’t really care much or as passionately about the sport as us – they just care about the numbers.
      “I don’t think it’s dangerous because I don’t think they are dangerous enough.”
      Fury was far from impressed with his performance but said in his post-fight interview: “I fought my absolute heart out and that’s all you can do.
      “I said from day one there will never be another Tyson Fury I’m just trying to be the best Tommy Fury that I can be.”
      A frustrated KSI – real name Olijade Olatunji – fumed at the result and took aim at Fury in his interview.
      He said: “Robbery, it’s a robbery. You weren’t landing, look at your face. Look at you.
      “I’m the YouTuber and you’re the boxer, you have to win.”

      The ex-Old Trafford captain is referencing an infamous sparring session when Rooney was knocked out by Bardsley.
