KSI says there\u2019s \u201cno point\u201d in Jake Paul fight after he\u2019s finished with Tommy Fury KSIYouTube star KSI has claimed a fight with his rival Jake Paul will make no sense once he\u2019s done with Tommy Fury. While fans have long wanted him to step in the ring with Jake Paul \u2014 a fight that has been over five years in the making \u2014 KSI has set his eyes on a different opponent, aiming to do what his rival couldn\u2019t and KO Tommy Fury. Following months of back-and-forth negotiations, KSI and Tommy are finally set to go blow for blow on October 14 in the AO Arena in Manchester, UK. However, despite the demand for the clash, the YouTube star claims a Jake Paul fight won\u2019t make any sense once he\u2019s done with Fury. KSI claims there\u2019s \u201cno point\u201d in Jake Paul bout after Fury Talking with sports physio specialist Harvey Ubhi, KSI touched on why he even made a return to boxing in the first place \u2014 where after almost three years out of the ring he came back with a spectacular two fights in one night. The Prime co-founder claimed he only returned to inevitably touch gloves with Jake Paul but feels like he\u2019s already surpassed that goal now. The YouTuber further explained that once he\u2019s done with Fury, there will be no point in facing \u2018The Problem Child\u2019. \u201cAs of right now I don\u2019t feel like I need to fight Jake,\u201d he said. \u201cBefore it used to be that I came back to fight Jake. Jake is the only reason I came back. But, I feel like I\u2019ve surpassed that now especially after I beat Tommy. At that point, I don\u2019t need to prove to people that I can beat Jake.\u201d He added: \u201cThe way I am looking to beat Tommy, man, people will then look at me and Jake and go there\u2019s no point for that fight, we know how it\u2019s going to go, JJ is going to win.\u201d (Timestamp at 4:22) Instead of boxing his long-time rival, KSI is eyeing up a bout with the \u2018notorious\u2019 Conor McGregor, who was the first fighter to hold UFC championships in two weight classes simultaneously. However, there\u2019s a chance that Fury will be the last time KSI fights inside the boxing ring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
