After Tommy Fury\u2019s triumph over Jake Paul earlier this year, handing the influencer his first boxing loss, the highly anticipated clash between KSI and Fury is just around the corner. With them set to finally go blow for blow on October 14, the British YouTube star is aiming to do what his rival Jake Paul couldn\u2019t, and knockout Fury to prove once and for all he\u2019s the best fighter in the scene. Ahead of fight night, expected to be the biggest influencer boxing event we\u2019ve seen to date, both KSI and Tommy joined Adin Ross for a face-to-face during his September 16 Kick stream. KSI says he\u2019ll bet $1 million to beat Tommy Fury Before Fury joined the call, Adin asked KSI how confident he was, and the YouTuber hit back claiming he\u2019s willing to put his money where his mouth is and bet $1 million for him to win the fight. \u201cIf you\u2019re confident in yourself, very confident, I\u2019ll put up some money you know? Then I\u2019ll get you a watch or something like that,\u201d said the streamer. \u201cSo nah like I\u2019m trying to put a million down on myself,\u201d KSI revealed. However, the YouTube star claimed that the logistics of placing a bet that large is proving to be difficult. \u201cFirst of all, a lot of the things, trying to put in that amount, just won\u2019t let me,\u201d he said. \u201cThey\u2019re like 5k maximum.\u201d Adin questioned if it was even legal for KSI to bet on himself. The YouTuber claimed it was fully legal, although he noted he can\u2019t bet on a specific round for the fight. \u201cI can bet on myself,\u201d KSI answered. \u201cI just can\u2019t bet on the round. So, yeah I think I\u2019m going to have to try and find a way to do it through people or I don\u2019t know.\u201d He added: \u201cBut then it\u2019s just dodgy so I\u2019m like I don\u2019t know if I want to just do it or if I just leave it. I\u2019m going to just put on whatever I can. KSI isn\u2019t the only one willing to put money on the line, with Logan Paul also offering to place a $1 million bet with Conor McGregor for him to beat Dillon Danis on the co-main event of the Prime Card. Not only that, the stakes are even higher for Paul, with him agreeing to let Dillon Danis be the best man at his wedding if he loses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KSI wants to bet $1 million on himself to beat Tommy Fury in boxing match DAZNYouTube star KSI has claimed he\u2019s willing to bet $1 million on himself to beat Tommy Fury ahead of their upcoming October 14 clash.
