After months of back and forth, YouTube stars JJ ‘KSI’ Olatunji and Logan Paul will finally settle their bitter rivalry with another boxing match. Here’s what you need to know about it.
The hugely-popular content creators first squared off in Manchester, England in August 2018 as they fought to a majority draw. Ever since that point, they’ve sent verbal jabs at each other in the hopes of getting back inside the ring.
They will finally do so on November 9 at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles, California. Ticket sales may not have been what many would have expected off the bat but the popularity of the pair will undoubtedly ensure that last-minute buyers pack out the 21,000 seat venue.
Logan Paul and KSI have been waiting to settle their beef for quite some time.
