KSI’s boxing coach says Jake Paul fight is worth £100MILLION and predicts YouTuber will KO bitter rival AND Tommy Fury
KSI’s boxing coach said a fight with Jake Paul is worth £100MILLION and predicted he will knock out his bitter rival AND Tommy Fury.
The YouTube, music and crossover boxing star was in line to settle his bitter score with Paul at the end of the year.
But those plans have taken a hit after Fury handed the American his first loss via split-decision in their grudge match in Saudi Arabia.
KSI labelled both celebrity boxers “TRASH” and claimed he could KO the pair – and his trainer Alexis Demetriades is in agreement.
Demetriades told Sky Sports: “Both Tommy and Jake were very tired, and the volume and the power punch volume wasn’t that high.
“KSI’s got a lot of power in both of his hands and has improved massively with it. He’s not one-dimensional or a one-handed fighter as some of these guys are.
“I have no doubt in my mind that KSI would put Jake Paul and Tommy Fury to sleep.”
KSI’s manager Mams Taylor called for Paul to shelve a rematch with Fury to instead focus the YouTube mega-fight.
But the self-proclaimed “Problem Child” has no interest and wants to gain revenge with a rematch eyed for the summer.
Demetriades insisted the ball is in Paul’s court, as he said: “If it doesn’t happen at the end of the year, it’s going to be because of the Jake Paul team.

“It won’t be because of us. We’ve signed off arenas, so we want that fight.”
The feud dates back to KSI’s 2019 win over Paul’s brother Logan, 27, which followed on from their draw a year prior.
It has kept the rivalry brewing to the point Demetriades believes the fight brings in millions of pounds.
He said: “KSI versus Jake Paul has to happen. If you’re realistic about it, it’s a £100million fight. It’s enormous.”
