After that, however, the KSI has his sights set on Jake Paul \u2013 the undefeated brother of fellow influencer Logan Paul in what could be their biggest battle yet. Speaking with MensHealth, KSI revealed why he wants to duke it out with Jake Paul and reaffirmed his goal to \u201cexpose\u201d the 5-0 \u2018Problem Child.\u2019 KSI vows to beat Jake Paul to become \u201cgreatest YouTube boxer\u201d After claiming that his upcoming bouts will be mere \u201ctune-up fights,\u201d the British rapper revealed that a match with Jake Paul is his \u201cdream.\u201d \u201cI want Jake Paul. That\u2019s why I\u2019ve come back. Everyone thinks he\u2019s sick. Everyone thinks he\u2019s the goat, and I\u2019m here to expose him and show everyone he\u2019s not as good as he thinks he is,\u201d KSI confidently explained. \u201cI\u2019m going to show everyone that I\u2019m the greatest YouTube boxer of all time,\u201d he added, saying that after that match, he might take on other boxers or even UFC fighters. \u201cI\u2019ve got a goal that I want to achieve, which is Jake Paul, and once I get that let me push my body some more, see how far I can go and find someone else that people would think I would never be able to beat.\u201d With Jake Paul set to take on an unknown opponent in October, it\u2019s unclear when he will actually step into the ring with KSI, but chances are a match could end up happening sometime in 2023. Jake Paul vs KSI topped our list for influencer boxing matches we want to see, so hopefully, unlike The Problem Child\u2019s previous scheduled fights against Tommy Fury and Hasim Rahman Jr, this one actually takes place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
