The crossover of boxing with Internet celebrities is in full swing. For example, Jake Paul, who is looking for a way to avoid prolonging his absence from the ring by facing fellow Youtuber KSI, has become a media phenomenon.

The offer is already on the table: after canceling his August 6 fight against Hasim Rahman Jr., heavyweight fighter who, in turn, had replaced Tommy Fury, another professional boxer, Paul is looking for a way to fight soon and that is why he would seek to be KSI’s opponent.

According to reports, the British Youtuber’s opponent, fellow Youtuber Alex Wassabi, has suffered an injury that would prevent him from taking the fight already scheduled for August 27 at the O2 Arena in London, England. Jake Paul would be willing to clashat 180 pounds, even without charging a single dollar. If KSI accepts, there will be a fight.
