Youtuber-turned-boxer KSI announces he will fight millionaire and David Haye’s mate Joe Fournier next on May 13
KSI has announced he will fight Joe Fournier on May 13.
The YouTuber has promised another KO when he clashes with the 40-year-old at Wembley Arena.
KSI released a promotional poster for the event alongside a caption that reads: “May 13th, we go again. Another KO incoming.”
Fournier is a millionaire businessman who is pals with Mo Farah.
He is also a professional boxer and has nine wins from ten bouts – all of which came via knock-out.
Fournier was once ranked 11th in the WBA rankings in the light heavyweight division after turning pro in 2015 – but he has not fought professional for almost five years, when he beat Andres Londono.
The Londoner runs superclubs around the world, including the prestigious and very private Bonbonniere in London’s exclusive Mayfair area.
He once dated Paris Hilton and fought another of his pals David Haye in an exhibition bout in 2021.
KSI last fought in January when he brutally knocked out FaZe Temperrr.
Prior to that the YouTuber fought twice in one night when he beat Swarmz and pro fighter Alcaraz Pineda.

KSI is hopeful of fighting Jake Paul but accused the American of ducking him.
He said: “They look like they just want to do the rematch or they want to look for another opponent.
“It doesn’t seem like they are keen to fight me any time soon, which is funny because he was the guy who said I was ducking.
“But, I’m not ducking anyone, man. I’ve literally told everyone the reason why I came back into boxing was to fight Jake Paul.
“And now he doesn’t want to fight me.”
