KSI to quit boxing after Jake Paul fight in shock retirement YouTube: MMA FightingYouTube star KSI has revealed that he\u2019s planning on retiring from boxing once he\u2019s fought Jake Paul as he believes he won\u2019t have any reason to continue after that. When KSI and Jake Paul helped kickstart the YouTube boxing scene back in 2018, it seemed like a matter of time before they\u2019d settle their beef and fight for ultimate bragging rights. Fast forward to 2023, and that fight has still yet to happen. Both of them are back active in the boxing scene, with Jake preparing to fight Tommy Fury at long last and KSI eyeing up his fourth fight in nine months with a return to the ring in May. The pair have, though, suggested they could fight each other towards the end of the year in the UK. Nothing has been signed on that front yet, and Jake\u2019s venture into the MMA world does complicate things, but it is KSI\u2019s ultimate end goal. KSI planning on retiring from boxing after Jake Paul fight They both appeared on The MMA hour with Ariel Helwani on February 22, with KSI revealing that he plans to expose Jake as a \u201cfraud\u201d and ride off into the sunset once they eventually fight. \u201cI think he\u2019s a fraud and I\u2019m the guy to expose it,\u201d KSI said, noting that he previously wanted to focus more on his music career \u2013 and eventually Prime \u2013 when there was talk of him fighting Jake in the past. \u201cI\u2019m going to come in, box him, knock him out, and go back to doing what I was doing before. It\u2019s legacy, man. I have no reason to continue (after Jake). That it is, I\u2019ve got nothing else.\u201d As noted, while the pair have said they\u2019re open to fighting in December, nothing has been signed just yet, and there\u2019s still plenty of time to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
