Deji is rocking the world of influencer boxing, becoming the second major content creator to take on the undefeated Floyd \u2018Money\u2019 Mayweather in the ring this November. This marks his fifth boxing match. Deji\u2019s record currently sits at 1-3, with the YouTuber scoring his first victory over Fouseytube on August 27 to mass appeal from fans. With his biggest fight ever on the way, Deji is already setting his sights even higher\u2026 and he\u2019s got a pretty prominent opponent in his sights, should everything work out. In a recent interview, Deji admitted that his dream boxing card would see the appearance of Justin Bieber. While he\u2019s best known for his music career, Bieber has been using boxing as a way to maintain his fitness for some time, even being trained by Mayweather as far back as 2014. Deji says he\u2019d KO Justin Bieber in boxing match Deji doubled down on this ambitious take in another recent interview with Inside Fighting, where he directly called out Justin Bieber for a boxing match and even said he\u2019d \u201cKO\u201d the pop star if the two ever meet in the ring. \u201cThat\u2019d be fun,\u201d Deji said of the possibility. \u201cYeah, I\u2019ll fight Bieber.\u201d \u201cHow does that fight end? By KO?\u201d the interviewer asked. \u201cYeah,\u201d Deji answered. \u201cWhat\u2019s your message to Bieber, if he\u2019s watching this?\u201d \u201cFight me,\u201d the YouTuber challenged. It\u2019s currently unclear if Bieber will ever take up Deji on his offer, but he\u2019s been somewhat involved in the influencer-boxing scene beforehand. In fact, he was a VIP for the famous rematch between Logan Paul and KSI back in 2019, and even backed the older Paul brother with a brutal message to KSI. This prompted a little one-sided rivalry between KSI and Bieber, with the British YouTuber saying he\u2019d \u201cdestroy\u201d the singer in a boxing match. Considering Bieber\u2019s current battle with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, it\u2019s unclear if we\u2019ll ever see him take part in the influencer-boxing beef\u2026 but it\u2019s clear that Deji isn\u2019t backing down from his \u201cdream\u201d fight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deji challenges Justin Bieber to boxing match and says he would \u201cKO\u201d him YouTube: Good Morning America, InsideFightingYouTube star Deji Olatunji has officially called out pop icon Justin Bieber to a boxing match \u2014 and even predicted he\u2019d knockout the music artist in the ring.
