KSI is set to face Dillon Danis next, but there is one man fans hope to see him fight, his biggest rival, Jake Paul.
KSI is due to face former UFC fighter Dillon Danis on the 29th of March, marking KSI’s first fight since losing to Tommy Fury, who is set to return against Matty Floyd, in 2023.
The YouTuber was scheduled to fight footballer Wayne Bridge, but Bridge withdrew following personal remarks from KSI.
Though he is fighting Danis next, fans still hope a match-up with Jake Paul will happen one day, and one man who has worked with both had some interesting insight to share on the fight.
Caleb Plant’s strength and conditioning coach thinks Jake Paul will beat KSI after working with both
Larry Wade, a strength and conditioning coach who has trained professional boxers like Shawn Porter, who is set to livestream a spar with an internet troll, Caleb Plant, who fought off a referee after stopping Anthony Dirrell, and Badou Jack, who punched two referees, has weighed in on the fight, sharing who he thinks will win.
Wade worked alongside both Paul and KSI, and said the following when asked:
“I shouldn’t even have to answer this question but Jake will win that fight. […] Me being able to see both guys and both guys’ work ethic and commitment and talent, I would go with Jake.”
KSI responded to this claim, stating: “Bro saw me for 2 weeks. He knows nothing.”
A fight between the pair has been on the lips of fans for years now and may become the biggest fight that never happened if an agreement cannot be reached.
