KSI hits back at rival Logan Paul after mocking his music career as talks continue over US boxing rematch
YOUTUBER KSI has hit back at Jake Paul after the American mocked his rival’s music career.
The internet kings competed in an exhibition bout last August which ended in a draw with a rematch thought to be taking place this year in America.
But the second fight has yet to materialise, though Paul has remained training while KSI has been touring the UK with his music partner Randolph.
KSI was mocked by Paul earlier in the month as he tweeted the Brit: “Kid can’t even sell out 50 person venues.
“Finish your s*** tour so we can fight.”
However, KSI hit back last week as he shared a video on Twitter tagging Paul, accusing his rival’s fans of being under the age of 16.
KSI said: “Mums life you’ll never be able to do this with a 16+ crowd @LoganPaul.”
Both men believed they should have walked away with the decision last year – as Paul raced to an early lead while KSI turned the result around with a late surge.
The contract included a two-fight deal with the first taking place in the UK and the rematch in the US.
If this fight doesn’t happen in the US by the end of the year, then lets bring it back to the U.K. and fight at the 02 next year.

But earlier in the month KSI urged the second fight to take place in England again, accusing Paul of not being able to stage the rematch Stateside.
KSI said: “If this fight doesn’t happen in the US by the end of the year, then lets bring it back to the U.K. and fight at the 02 next year.
“Whenever it was in the U.K. the fight actually got sorted. As soon as it’s in the US, nothing F***ING happens.
“I’m bored now. So lets have this rematch in the U.K. already cos you know and everyone else knows you lost the fight that night.”
Mike Majlak, a member of Paul’s team, responded: “That wasn’t the deal homie. next fight is on our turf, and if there’s any hold-up it’s on ur side g.

KSI replied: “Shut the f*** up. You guys don’t know how to even create a boxing event.
