Fury, on the other hand, won the fight of his life against Jake Paul in Saudi Arabia back in February.

KSI hasn’t made his desire to one day fight Paul a secret, but for now he’d rather do the one thing the Problem Child couldn’t do by beating Fury.

Fury and KSI faced off in the ring after the latter’s win over Fournier in scenes which set the influencer boxing landscape alight.

And now they’ll face off on a mega night of action in Manchester, with Jake’s brother Logan Paul also on the card!
