      Ryan’s last match was against rapper and boxer Swarmz — the pair fought at the OVO Wembley Arena on the undercard of KSI’s clash with FaZe Temperrr in January 2023.

      Misfits have confirmed to SunSport that the match has been cancelled, but it is not yet known why Ryan has been arrested. 
      Misfit Boxing—co-owned by KSI—are now seeking a replacement for the fight.
      Swarmz took to Twitter to criticise the YouTuber following the cancellation, saying: “ I exposed this man hes a wet wipe. Why only now you go and get arrested lool. I want you to prove you got arrested this sounds like the same excuses you used in our first fight. Your not ready for youtube boxing QUIT NOW… TIMEWASTER!!!!”
      Fans and critics also had a lot to say about the last-minute cancellation and arrest.
      One boxing fan said: “WE NEED AN ASAP REPLACEMENT IF THSST THE CASE.”
      Another said: “Crazy way of ducking a fight fairs.”
      Another chimed in: “Man’s that petrified of Swarmz he went and got himself arrested so he didn’t have to fight.”

      Social media sensation KSI – real name Olijade Olatunji – has yet to face a professional boxer in his brief stint in the sport.
      But former WBA heavyweight king Haye reckons the internet mogul will leave Fury – the younger brother of Tyson Fury – with egg on his face.
      He told JOE: “I think KSI beats him. Everybody just believes Tommy’s so much better.
      “The best name on his record is Jake Paul, and that was a close fight in which he got knocked down.

      “So it’s not like he has this depth of experience.
      “I think everybody’s overrating Tommy and very much underrating KSI, and that gives KSI a massive advantage. I believe it’s gonna be a big shock.”
      KSI, 30, goes into his clash with Fury on the back of a No Contest with Joe Fournier, who he knocked out with an illegal elbow.
      But he’s brimming with confidence ahead of his Manny melee with Fury, who he plans to finish inside four rounds.

      “I’m not running away, I’m standing in the middle of the ring and I’m fighting him.
      “I’ve watched [Fury and Paul’s fight] many times, every angle on slo-mo, every stance, every little bit of detail that I need to know in order to beat Tommy Fury.
      “Tommy has got some certain combinations that he likes doing that he’s pretty good at and we’re looking out for that.
      “Obviously he’s a big guy that likes to clinch so we’re going to be watching that and we’re going to fight him.
      “Just go in there and fight, go crazy, it’s simple.

      But while the focus is on the two main fights at the AO Arena, further down the bill are fellow mega-successful influencers with deep pockets.

      Alex Wassabi – whose partner is actress Alexxis Lemire – is worth a cool £13m.

      This worth is nearly identical to that of OnlyFans star Astrid Wett, who is facing Alexia Grace.
      However, the boxers are not the only ones stacking dough.

      And Fury appears to be in the shape of his life as he posed topless to show off his sensational two month transformation.
      He captioned the post: “A 9 week transformation… one thing about me, I don’t cut corners. Ever.”
      Fiancee Molly-Mae Hague commented: “Absolutely insane.”
      The 2019 Love Islander has closed out his training camp for the bout and has been left completely shredded.
