It\u2019s been well over two years since KSI last stepped into the boxing ring against former rival Logan Paul to settle their infamous internet feud. Having won their November 2019 rematch, KSI has since been laser-focused on his musical career \u2014 much to the chagrin of Jake Paul, who has made no bones about wanting to throw down with the UK YouTube superstar. Unfortunately, it looks like KSI has been a bit too busy to entertain the very idea of a boxing match, saying his current ventures are taking up all his time (see his surprise collab with Logan Paul on their PRIME Hydration drink). However, it\u2019s looking like fans might see the UK powerhouse return to the boxing ring sometime in the near future\u2026 at least, according to his trainer. KSI\u2019s trainer claims boxing comeback is on the horizon KSI\u2019s boxing trainer, Leon Willis, stated in an interview with GiveMeSport that the YouTuber is looking to make a comeback either late in 2022 or early in 2023. That being said, he\u2019s not certain the influencer-turned-rapper will be able to give his all if he\u2019s not putting his full focus on boxing, citing his multiple obligations toward his music career and recent business ventures. \u201cJJ\u2019s told me that he\u2019s looking to fight either later this year, or early next year,\u201d Willis said. \u201cThat\u2019s what he said. But it\u2019s just time. He\u2019s a top boy in everything he does. In music, he\u2019s a top artist. In YouTube, he\u2019s a top YouTuber. Now, he\u2019s got a drink company with Logan.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s hard to find the time,\u201d he continued. \u201cSo, if he can put all that to the side and train in boxing, and focus on boxing, then 100%.\u201d Although there\u2019s no word on the potential opponent for this possible comeback, many eyes are turning toward Jake Paul, who recently lashed out at KSI by claiming that Logan was \u201ccarrying\u201d their joint PRIME Hydration endeavor. For now, fans will just have to wait and see what comes of this latest news as KSI currently tours across the UK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KSI eyes YouTube boxing return with possible bout in late 2022 YouTube: IMPAULSIVEKSI\u2019s boxing trainer claims the YouTube star is looking to return to the ring sometime later this year or in early 2023.
