KSI struggles with suspicion when Wassabi is injured
Jake Paul has offered to join and face KSI later this month after his fight came into question.
The undefeated YouTube star recently canceled her own match and is set to fight at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night.
But Paul, whose confrontation with Hasim Rahman Jr. had fallen to the side of the road due to weight problemshas now put her name on the hat to join KSI on Aug 27th.
KSI was set to face fellow YouTuber Alex Wassabi in a boxing match at London’s O2 Arena, but the bout is said to be in doubt after Wassabi was injured.
Victory over Jake Paul’s brother Logan Paul by split decision in their rematch in November 2019 was the last time KSI was seen in the ring, while Wassabi defeated KSI’s younger brother Deji in March of this year.
The news of his withdrawal is revealed by Keemstarhost of the Internet news show Drama Alert, and now Paul is ready to make his debut.
Paul (5-0) posted a video on social media on Saturday afternoon offering to play KSI in London:
“KSI war, man, I heard the news. Obviously bad for Alex, because he’s concussion and can’t fight, but now this leaves KSI in a quandary.
“If he doesn’t accept the fight with me, we all just know that he is scared.”
Details surrounding the fight are yet to be confirmed – and it has yet to be officially announced that Wassabi will not be participating in the competition.
Paul, who was originally going to face Tommy Fury, Tyson Fury’s brother before Hasim Rahman Jr. Enter, continue:
“KSI, I’m going to London.
“I will weigh 180 pounds for the fight and you can be side A.
“What’s your plea? Do you accept it?”

Heard that Alex had a concussion. Damned. This is a huge opportunity for Alex. He will be back.
KSI… everything happens for a reason. I will come to fight in your homeland. Your boxing company. You are A-Side.
I also agree to pay £180 for 27 August.
You accept? pic.twitter.com/B5XI167xPm
