KSI apologizes to Wade Plem after fiery Twitter tirade YouTube: The W.A.D.E. Concept, JJ Olatunji \/ Twitter: KSIKSI has apologized to former Misfits Boxing host Wade Plem, after Plem claimed that Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury 2 would sell more tickets than Jake\u2019s highly-anticipated bout with KSI \u2014 sparking a massive Twitter tirade from the British creator. KSI is preparing to retire from boxing, claiming he\u2019ll take three fights in 2023 before hanging up his gloves for good. Right now, he\u2019s vying for a bout with Tommy Fury or Jake Paul later this year\u2026 but thus far, it\u2019s looking like Paul isn\u2019t showing interest in taking a fight with his rival across the pond. Initially, KSI hoped to fight Jake before his rematch with Tommy Fury, or at least only if he wins, claiming another loss for \u2018The Problem Child\u2019 would potentially kill all hype for the bout. With Jake aiming for a rematch this summer, KSI\u2019s plans are looking more and more unstable \u2014 and doubt is looming in some of his circles, as well. KSI lashes out at \u201ctwo-faced\u201d Wade Plem for hyping up Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury 2 Wade Plem, a content creator and host of KSI\u2019s promotional company, Misfits Boxing, says he doesn\u2019t see KSI vs Jake Paul happening at all, and even argued that Paul vs Fury 2 has the potential to sell more pay-per-views than KSI vs Jake Paul. \u201cWe heard from Jake in the IMPAULSIVE podcast, he does not think that the KSI fight sells like a Tommy Fury rematch and a Floyd Mayweather fight,\u201d Plem explained in a March 20 YouTube video. \u201cAnd I don\u2019t know that I can disagree with him right now.\u201d (Topic begins at 6 minutes) KSI appeared to take issue with Plem\u2019s stance on the subject and took to Twitter to blast the Misfits host, calling the creator \u201ctwo-faced\u201d and \u201cfake\u201d in a string of now-deleted tweets. \u201cThis man acts like he knows everything about boxing,\u201d KSI wrote. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t know sh*t. You\u2019re not that guy. Can\u2019t believe Sharky let this snake into my box. F*ck off.\u201d \u201cThis Wade guy plays all sides,\u201d he continued his rant. \u201cTrying to please everyone. You are so fake, omg. F*ck you and everything you stand for, you two-faced ****.\u201d A Twitter Space soon followed that saw KSI\u2019s manager, Mams Taylor, publicly decry Plem and seemingly kick the creator from Misfits, saying, \u201cHave fun on KingPyn.\u201d Shortly after, reports from Fred Beck claimed Wade had indeed been let go. \u201cObviously, there is more to it than just today\u2019s video,\u201d Mams Taylor allegedly said. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t over today he got fired, it\u2019s been long coming.\u201d Plem himself is now advertising his services, saying in the Space: \u201cI may as well promote it now, as I\u2019m not working for Misfits, that I\u2019ll be working for the PFL.\u201d He later left a single comment on Twitter at first, one to sum up his feelings on the situation, saying, \u201cWhat just happened?\u201d Before long, Plem followed up with a more in-depth statement, arguing back while claiming he has \u201cnever switched up\u201d on KSI. \u201cMy opinions of a potential fight don\u2019t reflect my opinion of you as a person or a fighter. I\u2019ve always respected you as both.\u201d KSI addresses outburst at W.A.D.E. Concept over Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury opinion KSI went on to address fans\u2019 reaction to his tirade and apologized for taking things public, but held firm that he\u2019s unhappy with Plem for \u2018switching up\u2019 on him in person. \u201cTo you it\u2019s an overreaction, but to me, it\u2019s a buildup of a lot of things behind the scenes,\u201d he wrote in another tweet. \u201cYou can have a public opinion, but don\u2019t come to me on a switch up when you see me in person.\u201d \u201cSorry for my outburst but I\u2019m human, I\u2019m gonna get angry sometimes.\u201d That\u2019s not all; on March 21, KSI offered a public apology to Plem on Twitter, saying his now-deleted posts were \u201cway out of character.\u201d \u201cWe\u2019ve already spoken privately, but I wanted to publicly apologize, too,\u201d he wrote. KSI\u2019s manager, Mams Taylor, also spoke out on the situation with an additional reply to Plem for what he said about the host in the fiery Twitter Spaces chat that broke out amid the initial confusion. \u201cI apologized to Wade for allowing my emotions and passion to take over by firing him on Spaces,\u201d Taylor said. \u201cThat wasn\u2019t cool, and I\u2019m sorry I did that.\u201d Plem has yet to comment on these apologies at the time of writing. For now, it\u2019s unclear if Jake vs KSI will ever end up happening \u2014 but it\u2019s clear that this incident has stoked a fire that could draw some eyes from The Problem Child as he gears up for his rematch with Fury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
