Influencer KSI has taken to social media to demand a knockout of Andrew Tate, following Jake Paul's defeat to Anthony Joshua in a heavyweight bout that ended with Paul suffering a broken jaw. The fight, which took place in the early hours of Saturday, saw Joshua dominate after a cautious start, dropping Paul twice in the fifth round and finishing him with a powerful right hand in the sixth.
KSI, whose real name is Olajide Olatunji, posted on X (formerly Twitter) after the fight: 'Congratulations AJ.' Hours later, he added: 'Now I just need an Arsenal win and Andrew Tate to get knocked out and then this will be a fantastic weekend.' The comments come amid an ongoing feud between KSI and Tate, which escalated after Tate reportedly took over KSI's role as CEO of Misfits Boxing in October.
Tate has previously explained how the feud began, stating that KSI made a negative comment about him, leading to a back-and-forth. In a recent interview, Tate claimed he 'took KSI's business' and expressed openness to fighting the Sidemen star. 'I could have just took his business and been a businessman, but I decided to take his business and be a fighter for a while,' Tate said.
KSI has not fought since a decision loss to Tommy Fury over two years ago and recently underwent hand surgery. It remains unclear when he will return to the ring, but Tate's comments suggest a potential bout could be on the cards, with Tate jokingly adding: 'I am the CEO, so I can... pay myself a f***load of money.'
