KSI hits back at Jake Paul\u2019s claims that he\u2019s \u201cscared\u201d to fight YT: JJOlatunji\/IG: JakePaulPopular British YouTuber and rapper Olajide \u2018KSI\u2019 Olatunji has hit back at Jake Paul\u2019s claims that he\u2019s \u2018scared\u2019 of a boxing match, as the wait for a fight between the two men goes on. Despite the pair being heavily rumored to be setting up a fight for months now, a boxing match between KSI and Jake Paul has not yet materialized. KSI has now overcome Jake\u2019s older brother Logan across two fights, while the younger Paul brother beat out Deji before breezing past AnEsonGib in the first round. This, along with the war of words that has raged between the two men for the past few months, led many to believe that one final fight was on the way. However, Paul has since been confirmed as fighting ex-NBA star Nate Robinson on September 12. The fight with Robinson means that any bout between KSI and Jake Paul will likely not happen until 2021, but the pair\u2019s verbal battles have continued. In an August 7 YouTube video, KSI addressed the Paul brothers once again, and responded to claims made by Jake that he is \u201cscared\u201d of a potential fight. Asked by older brother Logan whether he was worried about \u201cover-performing\u201d and scaring KSI, Jake responded: \u201cI think KSI is already scared.\u201d In reply, KSI laughed and said: \u201cSays the guy who made a fake contract, and tried to get me to sign said fake contract. What? I\u2019m scared? Jake, I am not scared, I want to fight you. Trust me. I want to beat the living sh*t out of you.\u201d \u201cBut I can\u2019t!\u201d he continued. \u201cYou know why? Because we\u2019re in a pandemic right now. I know you don\u2019t care about the pandemic because you literally threw a party during it\u2026 can you be more dumb? That\u2019s just incredibly selfish.\u201d Criticism of Paul\u2019s behavior during the ongoing health crisis has been widespread, but some, including Jake himself, have defended it. The pair do look set to fight each other at some point but, as KSI makes clear, the current global situation is not one conducive to travel or large groups of spectators gathering. We will have to wait and see how this one unfolds but, for the time being, neither man is backing down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
