KSI reveals who he's putting his money on to win in Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury clash
KSI has long been waiting for Jake Paul to fail inside the boxing ring as the two have a strong hatred for one another. But the Brit has now placed a surprising £500 bet on for the American influencer's clash against Tommy Fury.
'JJ' is an extremely popular entertainer and businessman from the United Kingdom who is now seemingly putting the majority of his focus into the sport of boxing. Last time out, the partial owner of the beloved Prime Hydration energy drink put in his best performance inside the ring, stopping his opponent early into the first round.
In a rant on social media, KSI demanded that 'The Problem Child' get his hand raised against Tommy Fury and even placed a bet on the bout, insisting he must "make as much money as possible" before eventually facing the Ohio-born star.
"Make sure you win mate Jake Paul. I need to make as much money as possible for when I get to knock you out myself."

Despite facing a number of former mixed martial arts champions, including two former UFC titleholders in Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley, many believe Jake Paul's next outing will be his toughest to date.
Tommy Fury has a similar amount of experience in the squared circle as his opponent, but he was born into a fighting family and has likely been lacing up his gloves for over a decade.
The two are set to face off later tonight, with the winner receiving a beautifully crafted 'Diriyah Champion' belt and a subsequent rumored ranking amongst the WBC world cruiserweights.
Jake Paul vs. KSI: Will the ultimate YouTube clash ever happen?
Although it seems Jake Paul is on a completely different level in the sport of boxing than his YouTube counterpart, he remains keen to match up with KSI in the near future.
According to reports, the pair will finally get to settle their differences in the ring, as they are rumored to be competing at the upcoming MF & DAZN X Series 13 card in December.
Win, lose or draw against Tommy Fury, the KSI fight will still be a strong possibility for Jake, as both men desperately seek acknowledgment as the best 'YouTube boxer' in the world.
