KSI continues to grow in prominence, not just as a YouTuber and internet star, but more recently in the world of professional boxing.
The 30-year-old, who is from London in the UK, is part of the Sidemen group of YouTubers and influencers but has also fought in five boxing bouts, winning four by knockout.
The Misfits CEO's next fight against Love Islander and brother of Tyson Fury, Tommy Fury, is set for Manchester on October 14 and is attracting a huge amount of interest. Fury has a 9-0 record and is certainly the toughest opponent KSI has yet faced.
Beyond boxing, KSI also has significant interest in football. Part of his initial growth as a YouTuber centered on streams of the popular FIFA game series, and he is a regular viewer of Premier League games.
But which team is able to count KSI among its fanbase? The Sporting News details all here.
