KSI hits out at Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson However, Paul\u2019s long time rival KSI is less than convinced. The pair have been on a collision course for years and both share a loss to Tommy Fury, brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, inside the ring. Given the clamor to see KSI and Paul share the ring, the British YouTube star did not hold back with his verdict after Paul\u2019s fight against the 57-year-old was announced. \u201c50+ years old,\u201d KSI said of Tyson via his X account. \u201cNo one wanted this. So sad to see man.\u201d However, Paul took to X with a message of his own about the fight. \u201cPromotion promotion promotion if I\u2019m being honest it don\u2019t need that,\u201d Paul tweeted. \u201cThe biggest fight of the 21st century, in the biggest NFL stadium in the US, broadcast live, on the biggest streaming platform in the world\u2026that\u2019s the MVP way. \u201cWhether you\u2019re tuning in on Netflix or showing out in person, whether you\u2019re team Paul or team Tyson, or whether you\u2019re a lifelong boxing fan or watching your first fight, you\u2019re not going to want to miss this event. \u201cI could not be more excited to make this amazing fight available to all Netflix subscribers alongside the hardest hitter of all time, Mike Tyson, on Saturday, July 20th. \u201cMy sights are set on becoming a world champion, and now I have a chance to prove myself against the greatest heavyweight champion of the world, the baddest man on the planet and the most dangerous boxer of all time.
