Jake Paul proposes "winner takes all" fight with KSI, British star responds
Jake Paul and KSI seem to have agreed on a peculiar arrangement for their potential boxing fight. Under this arrangement, one side will emerge with all the prize money.
Jake Paul tweeted out saying he was ready to fight KSI at 180 lbs and even agreed to a rehydration clause. However, 'The Problem Child' had one condition:
"I will agree to fight KSI at 180 pounds plus his request for a 10 pound rehydration clause. BUT it has to be 100% winner takes all like he requested. ZERO to the loser. ZERO."
Paul seems ready to fight on KSI's terms if the loser walks out with zero prize money. In response to this challenge, 'The Nightmare' seemed ecstatic and replied:
"So you gave into my demands and now want to give me more money too? You got yourself a deal idiot."
Take a look at the exchange on Twitter:

Jake Paul is currently set to fight Tommy Fury on 26 February at the Diriyah Arena in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia. KSI has made it clear that he will fight the winner of this matchup and is even willing to fight Tommy Fury if he manages to beat 'The Problem Child'.
Jake Paul claims he agreed to the terms to give KSI an "advantage" over him
Jake Paul clapped back at KSI, claiming that the only reason he agreed to the demands set by the Brit was so he would not "duck" him anymore. 'The Problem Child' and 'The Nightmare' have been going back and forth for years now, and both sets of fans have been calling for this fight to take place for years.
Paul claims he is trying to make the fight happen:
"Yeah I gave into your 'demands' to try and give you an advantage for you to actually agree to fight me. Again ZERO to the loser. Not you, not your fake ass promotion."

KSI is himself on the lookout for his next opponent. He will now either wait to fight the winner of Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury or get another tune-up fight in before he takes on 'The Problem Child'.
The Brit has stated on multiple occasions that fighting his American foe is the main aim of his return to boxing and that he will hang up his gloves after beating him.
