On November 28, IShowSpeed called out KSI to spar in the ring. To much surprise, the British YouTube star accepted Speed\u2019s challenge, but on the condition that it\u2019s at the same time Jake Paul is set to make his return to the ring \u2014 hoping to take the spotlight from \u2018The Problem Child\u2019. KSI and Speed are set to go toe-to-toe in the early hours of the morning on December 16, at precisely the same time Jake Paul will be touching gloves with his next opponent Andre August in Orlando, Florida. With the details now established, Speed is set to begin training, after the 18-year-old vowed to \u201ckick KSI\u2019s ass\u201d. In preparation, the YouTube star wants help from the \u201cbest boxer of all time.\u201d IShowSpeed wants to train with Manny Pacquiao for KSI spar In a November 29 live stream, Speed explained he\u2019ll be getting a bit of training in before he touches gloves with KSI, and he already knows the \u201cbest boxer of all time\u201d who can help. \u201cThe best boxer of all time follows me bro. I\u2019m about to text him, a matter-of-fact chat, I\u2019m about to text him,\u201d said Speed. \u201cI\u2019m about to text him, right now, because, why not? The best boxer of all time. I\u2019m about to ask him for training.\u201d Speed then revealed that Manny Pacquiao, who holds the record for the most boxing titles in more weight classes than any other boxer in history, follows him on Instagram. \u201cIf you do not know who Manny Pacquiao is you are a dumb motherf**ker,\u201d he said. \u201cThe best boxer of all time in my eyes. Better than Floyd Mayweather in my eyes.\u201d (Timestamp at 7:25) The YouTube streamer first sent a message to the Filipino boxer earlier in the year, to which he got a response in October, although he never realized it. \u201cNo way I left him on seen, I didn\u2019t even know he f**king text me back,\u201d said Speed. \u201cChat, he texted me back, so it\u2019s over. It\u2019s over. No way I left him on seen for one month, that\u2019s actually bad, that\u2019s terrible.\u201d Speed then sent a message saying he\u2019d love to meet with the \u2018PacMan\u2019. However, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see whether or not they link up for a training session.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IShowSpeed calls for help from boxing legend Manny Pacquiao before KSI fight IShowSpeedYouTube star IShowSpeed is seeking help from the \u201cbest boxer of all time\u201d Manny Pacquiao as he gears up to spar with KSI.
