Even though <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jake-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jake Paul</a> expected his fight against Mike Tyson to be a success, it fell short of expectations. Many consider the bout a fiasco, which is why Paul is now close to sealing the dream match fans have eagerly awaited for a long time.



On November 15, the world witnessed <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-tyson" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mike Tyson</a>‘s return to boxing. After his exhibition match four years ago, the legendary pugilist agreed to a professional bout with Jake Paul, a matchup that surprised everyone.



At 58 years old, Mike Tyson faced a boxer 31 years his junior. This significant age gap clearly influenced the fight’s outcome, as Jake Paul capitalized on his superior stamina to dominate the bout against the aging Iron Mike.



<h2>Jake Paul aims to deliver the dream fight fans have been demanding</h2>



Throughout the year, Jake Paul hyped his fight against Mike Tyson, promising a spectacular show. The YouTuber challenged Iron Mike to a professional bout, meaning the result would officially affect their records.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/boxing/ufc-president-delivers-strong-warning-to-jake-paul-on-possibility-of-canelo-alvarez-fight"></div>


However, the fight fell far short of expectations. While Mike Tyson had a strong start in the first two rounds, by the third round, his age became apparent, and exhaustion took over. This allowed Paul to secure a dominant position.



Jake Paul ultimately won by unanimous decision in a fight many believe should never have happened. Now, Paul is seeking redemption and looking for a new opponent to restore his reputation. It seems he may have found the match everyone has been clamoring for.



Olajide William Olatunji, better known as KSI, is ready to step into the ring with Jake Paul. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ksi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">KSI</a> famously defeated Logan Paul in 2019, sparking calls for Jake to avenge his brother and face his business partner in a showdown.

KSI’s manager, Mams Taylor, told ‘The Sun Sport’ that his client is eager to make the fight happen. However, one major hurdle remains: agreeing on the weight class.



“Obviously the fight with Jake is something we wanted and it was talked about flipping a coin, we said, ‘Okay, let’s flip a coin,’ but the weights have to be fair. If you want 192 pounds on one side, then we want 183 pounds on the other side. If you want 190, we’ll take 185,” Taylor told SunSport. “Take it or leave it, we’ll even fight in America, in Las Vegas. We’ve really tried to make it happen.”



<h2>What is KSI’s boxing record?</h2>



KSI is one of the UK’s most prominent influencers. After his victory over Logan Paul, the two turned their rivalry into a business venture with their sports drink brand. Despite his entrepreneurial focus, KSI has remained active in boxing.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/boxing/floyd-mayweather-issues-ruthless-warning-to-jake-paul-over-potential-canelo-fight-after-tyson-bout"></div>


Currently, KSI holds a 1-1 professional boxing record. As mentioned, he defeated Logan Paul in 2019 but later faced Tommy Fury in 2023, where Fury emerged victorious without much difficulty.

In November, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jake-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jake Paul</a> is set to face boxing legend <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-tyson" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mike Tyson</a>. However, the YouTuber has now received an unexpected challenge from one of his brother’s closest friends, urging him to step back into the ring for another bout.



Six years ago, Jake Paul embarked on his boxing journey, transitioning from influencer to fighter. The sport captured his attention, and he’s been working hard to establish himself as a professional boxer, with ambitions to fully solidify that status soon.



In just two months, Paul will take on Tyson in his 12th professional fight. Yet, this latest challenge could present a pivotal moment for his career, potentially shaping his future in the sport.



<h2>Jake Paul is challenged by another YouTuber for a boxing match</h2>



Jake Paul has been working to establish himself in professional boxing over the past few years. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has faced a variety of opponents, including influencers, retired athletes, and even former basketball players.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/boxing/mike-tyson-gives-a-worrying-update-about-his-health-ahead-of-his-fight-vs-jake-paul"></div>


However, Paul’s toughest challenge yet seems to be on the horizon. In November, he is set to fight none other than Mike Tyson. Despite the 30-year age gap, Tyson remains one of the most legendary boxers in history, making this a high-stakes bout for Paul.



Yet, not everyone believes this fight will take place. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ksi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">KSI</a>, the best friend of Jake Paul’s brother, has publicly doubted the match and gone a step further by challenging Paul to a fight of his own in the near future.



“Jake’s just getting heavier and heavier and heavier, obviously, because he’s just looking at the Mike Tyson fight – which I still don’t think is going to happen,” he said, per World Boxing News.

“I think they’re going to try and make an ordeal, and then eventually Mike will realise he actually can’t fight, and then I don’t know what they’re going to do then.



“But for me, the Jake fight, I’m just going to wait,” Logan Paul’s best friend added. “I don’t really need to chase him. Eventually, he’s going to have no other options but to have to come to me.”



<h2>What is KSI’s net worth?</h2>



KSI’s net worth is estimated to be around $30 million. He has built his wealth through various ventures, including his successful YouTube channel, music career, boxing matches, and business endeavors.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/boxing/anderson-silva-explains-why-the-jake-paul-vs-mike-tyson-fight-is-so-interesting"></div>


A major contributor to his financial success is also his co-ownership of Prime Hydration, a sports drink company he launched alongside fellow YouTuber Logan Paul.

The crossover of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/the-painful-accusation-about-the-career-of-canelo-alvarez-made-by-legendary-mexican-coach-20220805-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing</a> with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/logan-paul-latest-athlete-to-try-his-hand-in-wwe-20220630-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Internet celebrities</a> is in full swing. For example, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/what-is-jake-paul-weight-class-in-boxing-20220804-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a>, 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 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/hasim-rahman-jr-profile-age-height-weight-boxing-record-and-social-media-20220712-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hasim Rahman Jr.</a>, 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. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-the-ridiculous-amount-jake-paul-would-be-willing-to-charge-to-fight-rival-ksi-in-london-20220806-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul would be willing to clash</a>at 180 pounds, even without charging a single dollar. If KSI accepts, there will be a fight.
<h2>What is the real name of KSI?</h2>
The Youtuber, but also rapper and entrepreneur, actor, composer and boxer, goes by his first name Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji. KSI stands for Knowledge, Strength, Integrity, words he has tattooed on his chest and arms, respectively.
<h2>How old is KSI?</h2>
Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji was born on June 19, 1993 in Watford, Hertfordshire, England, so she is currently 29 years old. Her rise to fame began in 2009 when she created a YouTube channel in which she showed herself playing video games, specifically a soccer game, FIFA.
<h2>How tall is KSI?</h2>
His height is well above average for a native of England, as he is 1.83 meters, that is, 6 feet exactly. In fact he is almost the same height as his bitter rival <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/jake-paul-insists-on-fighting-canelo-alvarez-i-know-i-could-beat-him-20220803-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a>, but shorter than the Problem Child‘s elder brother, Logan.
<h2>How much does KSI weigh?</h2>
Another similarity with both Logan and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/why-was-the-boxing-match-between-jake-paul-and-hasim-rahman-jr-cancelled-20220802-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a> is that the weight of Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji, aka KSI, is no more than the boxing cruiserweight limit of 200 pounds. In fact in his fights he has stopped the scales at 193 pounds.
<h2>What is KSI’s boxing record?</h2>
Despite being a Youtuber, KSI has ventured into the world of sports, specifically boxing. As an amateur he had 2 fights, against Joe Weller, whom he defeated, and against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/logan-paul-defends-lana-rhoades-and-her-baby-if-they-knew-who-that-kids-dad-was-20220122-0022.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Logan Paul</a>, with whom he drew. In the professional arena, he has had only one fight, also against Paul, whom he defeated by SD.
<h2>What is KSI’s social media?</h2>
This is the specialty of the multifaceted British fighter. KSI has a presence in all major social media: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVtFOytbRpEvzLjvqGG5gxQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">KSI</a> on Youtube with over 20 million subscribers; <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ksi/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@ksi</a> on Instagram with 11.7 million followers; <a href="http://twitter.com/KSI/header_photo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@KSI</a> on <a href="https://twitter.com/KSI/header_photo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a> with 7.8 million; <a href="https://www.facebook.com/KSIOlajidebt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">K.S.I.</a> on Facebook with 5.1 million followers.
<h2>What is KSI’s fortune?</h2>
According to information from Wealthy Gorilla, after almost 14 years of hard work increasing his range of influence in social networks, the British KSI would have amassed the not inconsiderable fortune of 25 million dollars, a figure similar to that boasted by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/jake-paul-trick-learned-from-canelo-alvarez-the-rehydration-clause-for-hasim-rahman-jr-20220712-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a> and his brother Logan.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/what-is-jake-paul-weight-class-in-boxing-20220804-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a> misses <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/the-best-upcoming-boxing-fights-tonight-20220702-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing</a> too much. After last fighting in December 2021, he was scheduled to return on August 6 but again fate denied him the opportunity to test himself against a working fighter when his bout with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/hasim-rahman-jr-profile-age-height-weight-boxing-record-and-social-media-20220712-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hasim Rahman Jr.</a> was cancelled. However, light was on his horizon thanks to KSI.
Englishman KSI is an internet personality, a Youtuber and rapper who does not have a cordial history with the Paul family after he settled his differences with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/logan-paul-defends-lana-rhoades-and-her-baby-if-they-knew-who-that-kids-dad-was-20220122-0022.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Logan</a>, Jake’s older brother, in the ring a couple of times. The results were a draw and a win for KSI.
Thus, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/why-was-the-boxing-match-between-jake-paul-and-hasim-rahman-jr-cancelled-20220802-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a> is looking to hit two birds with one stone: avenge his brother and at the same time break his cycle of more than 8 months of inactivity in boxing, and has offered KSI to take the place of his opponent Alex Wassabi, apparently injured, in his fight on August 27 in London. How much would The Problem Child earn for this fight?
<h2>Jake Paul’s sacrifice to get back to boxing</h2>
According to Youtuber KEEMSTAR, Wassabi, also a Youtuber, reportedly suffered an injury that would prevent him from fighting KSI on August 27 at the O2 Arena in London, England. That’s where <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/jake-paul-trick-learned-from-canelo-alvarez-the-rehydration-clause-for-hasim-rahman-jr-20220712-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a> wants to take advantage of the situation to get in the ring taking advantage of the training he had already done for his cancelled fight on August 6. In order to achieve his goal, Paul proposed to charge a derisory amount: zero dollars.
“Heard that Alex is out bc of a concussion. F****d up. This was a big opportunity for Alex. He will be back. KSI… everything happens for a reason. I’ll come fight in your hometown. Your boxing company. You are A-Side. I also agree to make 180 pounds for August 27. You accept?“, tweeted Jake Paul. 
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-twitter" id="twitter-55">
<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
My manager just told me KSI is down but only if I fight him for free and he keeps all the revenue. That’s what they offering…
 I said hurry the fuck up and send me the contract.
 — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) <a href="https://twitter.com/jakepaul/status/1555963073260883972?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 6, 2022</a> </blockquote></div>
 </div>
</div>
<h2>KSI answers to Jake Paul’s offer</h2>
The Problem Child did not have to wait so long to get a response to his offer. KSI already shared his position about a fight with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/jake-paul-insists-on-fighting-canelo-alvarez-i-know-i-could-beat-him-20220803-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a>. Unfortunately for Paul’s boxing fans it was not positive: “We will fight on my terms and when we do, it’ll be done on the biggest stage. I’m talking Wembley stadium fam. With a full camp tailored just for you and I, so that there are no excuses when we fight.”, tweeted the British Internet celebrity.
