What to expect
The journey of KSI in the boxing arena has been a fairytale so far. For a guy from the YouTube arena, his record is decent enough to say he has good skills with a record of 5-0-1.
This fight against Joe Fournier is seen as a statement from KSI, who is looking forward to resolving the long-standing feud between Jake Paul and him in the near future.
In spite of the fact that this fight falls under the influencer boxing category, the hype around this fight is no less than that surrounding Garcia vs Davis. Joe Fournier is going to be the biggest test for KSI, who has yet to fight a challenging opponent.
An English businessman by profession, Joe Fournier has shown a great deal of potential and skill in the short time he has been in the ring.
His last fight was against David Haye in 2021. Ring rust will be a challenge for Fournier, but given his skill set, he would likely overcome this obstacle.
Prediction
Both the boxers are coming into this contest with undefeated records. Joe Fournier hasn't fought for more than a year, which is a big negative point for him. However, in comparison to KSI, he has a lot more experience overall.
KSI is known for his brute power, which may not be a major advantage for him to face off against a big boxer like Joe Fournier, who is a big man. Our prediction is that the fight will either end in a majority draw or Joe Fournier will take home the honours in a majority draw.
