KSI takes on Tommy Fury to \u2018do what Jake Paul couldn\u2019t\u2019 at Misfits x DAZN Series 009 Misfits \/ DAZNKSI and Tommy Fury are officially set to throw down, with the two influencers set to touch gloves on October 14 on the Misfits x DAZN Series 009 card. After months of back and forth in negotiations, KSI and Tommy Fury have officially announced they\u2019ll finally be stepping into the ring. Ever since Jake Paul lost to Fury in early 2023, the British YouTube star has been eyeing up a bout with the professional fighter \u2014 with him looking to prove he\u2019s the best influencer boxer. However, it\u2019s fair to say the two came to a head when it came to contract negotiations, after constantly going back and forth. That was until KSI gave Tommy a final ultimatum, setting a deadline for him to sign the contract before he loses the opportunity to touch gloves after he felt \u201cdisrespected\u201d during negotiations. Finally, Misfits president Mams Taylor teased the Series 009 card on July 22, where the promotion image showed the \u2018X\u2019 logo split into four parts, with the top-left corner showing KSI\u2019s famous bandana, and the opposite corner slating the words \u2018FURY\u2019 written in fire. Now, in a tweet on July 30, the fight has been officially announced. KSI and Tommy Fury will be going blow for blow on October 14 on the Misfits x DAZN Series 009 card. \u201cOCTOBER 14TH, I\u2019m doing what Jake Paul couldn\u2019t and beating Tommy Fury on the biggest night in crossover boxing history, at Manchester\u2019s AO Arena, live on DAZN PPV on the PRIME CARD!\u201d KSI wrote in a tweet. Series 009 is expected to be the biggest influencer boxing event we\u2019ve seen to date. On the \u201cPrime card\u201d, former opponent and now business partner Logan Paul will be making his return to the ring. It\u2019s unclear exactly who Logan will be touching gloves with just yet. However, fans are guessing he\u2019ll finally be throwing down with Dillon Danis after the UFC star begged DAZN to \u201csend the contract\u201d to fight Logan in 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
