KSI says he is returning to boxing to finally \u201cf**k Jake Paul up\u201d YouTube: KSI\/Jake PaulYouTube star JJ \u2018KSI\u2019 Olatunji says he\u2019s making his return to boxing so that he can finally get his long-awaited fight with Jake Paul, but it won\u2019t be happening anytime soon. When the influencer boxing craze kicked off back in 2018, KSI was right at the forefront of things. The Brit settled his beef with Joe Weller inside the boxing ring, and turned his attention to Logan Paul afterwards. After defeating Logan, it seemed as if KSI was on a collision course to fight his brother Jake soon after. Though, that didn\u2019t happen. Jake has, instead, moved on to fighting former NBA and Mixed Martial Arts stars, while KSI hasn\u2019t fought since his bout with Logan back in 2019. The pair have always talked about eventually squaring off inside the ring, and even though Jake\u2019s promotion recently poured cold water on the prospect of it happening, KSI is still targeting a fight with his long-time rival. A clip from one of KSI\u2019s concerts captured the attention of fans after it started doing the rounds on TikTok. While taking a break from his show, the YouTuber addressed some claims that he wouldn\u2019t return to boxing, despite all the talk. \u201cIt\u2019s so funny, so many motherf**kers think \u2018he ain\u2019t going to box again, he\u2019ll stick with the music\u2019 and to be honest, I probably could have,\u201d KSI told the crowd. \u201cBut I was like nah man, I need to f**k Jake Paul up! So you best believe it\u2019s coming.\u201d The YouTuber also reiterated the fact that he\u2019ll return to the ring in late August, and then after that, he wants to trade blows with his long-time rival. Click here if TikTok doesn\u2019t load As noted, a fight between the pair is something that has been talked about for years at this point, and while there is plenty of interest, who knows if it\u2019ll ever happen. KSI has remained a part of Jake\u2019s boxing \u2018hitlist\u2019 but he also wants to be a world champion and fight the likes of Saul \u2018Canelo\u2019 Alvarez. So, we\u2019ll have to wait and see what happens after their respective summer fights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
