KSI Criticises Jake Paul and Reflects on Meeting Turki Alalshikh

The Misfits Boxing CEO is getting prepared to face the divisive Danis, but when speaking to The Stomping Ground, he had some choice words for Jake Paul. KSI-Paul has long been rumoured and would undoubtedly be a huge event in the influencer/crossover boxing world. But one thing is clear, despite the business deals between KSI and Logan, there is no love lost with his brother Jake, AKA “El Gallo.”

“You know, someone like Jake Paul gave the whole crossover scene, influencer scene a bit of a bad name. Especially after that last fight against Mike Tyson. I don’t know. He’s made a bit of a mockery with boxing,” said Olatunji.

KSI then discussed his recent meeting with Turki Alalshikh, The Saudi Arabian General Entertainment Authority Chairman: “When he met me, he was quite impressed. You know, with just my vision, with what we’ve created with Misfits and you know where we want it to go and what I can do as well in the boxing ring and who I could possibly fight.

“We were talking about all those things and if certain things happen, it’s going to be a very exciting year.”
