And the fight moved a huge step closer to coming to fruition last weekend with KSI‘s controversial second-round knockout of Joe Fournier.

KSI and Fury were separated by security after their heated post-fight face-off – which has only served to increase the intrigue in the fight in the influencer boxing fan base.

So SunSport thought it’d only be right to break down the pair’s seemingly imminent showdown.

Physical

The physical side of this match-up is pretty even with both men standing at a solid six feet.

Fury, however, has the advantage when it comes to reach – boasting arms which extend a solid 80 inches.

And he almost weighs half a stone more than the wirey but ripped KSI having tipped the scale at 184.5lbs for his last outing.

Form

Both men have yet to taste defeat in their careers – although Fury has faced markedly tougher competition than YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI.

KSI will enter the bout with Fury, should it come to fruition, on the back of a second-round KO of Fournier – which came courtesy of an illegal elbow.

Fury, meanwhile, scored the biggest win of his own career in February with a split-decision victory over Jake Paul in Saudi Arabia.

Tommy, meanwhile, is the younger brother of none other than WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.
