Roy Jones Jr. wants to fight KSI on one condition Instagram: drinkprime \/ YouTube: RealLyfe ProductionsBoxing legend Roy Jones Jr. says he\u2019s down to fight YouTube star KSI as Mike Tyson gears up to take on Jake Paul this summer in a first-of-its-kind Netflix special event. Mike Tyson isn\u2019t the only OG boxer getting back in the ring against some young blood, as Roy Jones Jr. thinks he stands a good chance against British influencer KSI in a hypothetical bout. Jones appeared in an interview on the Misfits Boxing YouTube channel on April 11, 2024, where he was asked about the possibility of taking on KSI amidst the current hype surrounding Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul. His outlook was quite positive. In fact, Jones believes that he could make the fight happen \u2014 but says the conditions would need to be right to sign the dotted line. \u201cI mean, we can make it happen,\u201d he answered. \u201cI understand that KSI\u2019s good. He has a different style, but Roy Jones Jr. is still a dog, you understand me? He don\u2019t back down from nothing, and when he comes, he comes for real. \u201cSo if there was enough time and it\u2019s a great situation, and if it\u2019s gonna be in the UK and people would wanna come see it \u2014 I mean, I\u2019m younger than Mike Tyson. If Mike can do it, why can\u2019t I? But it\u2019s gotta be the right situation. So if people wanna see it and it\u2019s a great situation, and a great chance for me to come perform in front of my UK crowd, how could I say no?\u201d (Topic begins at 17:00) When asked how he\u2019d fare in the hypothetical match, Jones didn\u2019t count out KSI\u2019s skills despite the gap in their experience in the ring. \u201cFrom what I\u2019ve seen, his uniqueness would be very difficult to deal with, because you never know when he\u2019s coming and when he\u2019s not,\u201d Jones reflected. \u201cHe\u2019s unpredictable. And that being said, he\u2019s gonna be hard, especially when your reflexes are not what they used to be.\u201d Thus far, KSI hasn\u2019t responded to Jones\u2019 latest remarks\u2026 but it\u2019s clear that Roy Jones Jr. is down to scrap if everything\u2019s right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
