KSI and Tommy Fury to Clash in High-Stakes Showdown: How to Watch the KSI-Fury, Paul-Danis Fights on ESPN+ PPV?
On Saturday, October 14, the AO Arena in Manchester, England, is set to host a spectacular boxing event that has the internet buzzing. In the main event, Tommy Fury, fresh off his split-decision victory over Jake Paul in February, will face another internet sensation turned boxer, Olajide Olayinka Williams, known to the world as KSI. This thrilling matchup will be available for viewing on ESPN+ Pay-Per-View (PPV), and fans around the globe are eager to see these YouTuber pugilists square off.
Tommy Fury, a 24-year-old British boxer with a professional record of 9 wins and 4 knockouts, hails from Manchester. He is no stranger to the limelight, having gained fame in the UK for his appearance on the reality show, Love Island. Unlike many boxers, Fury’s journey began in 2018 without any prior amateur experience. With his impressive family lineage as the half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and the guidance of his father, John Fury, Tommy is set to make a statement in the ring.
His opponent, KSI, is a YouTube sensation with a staggering following of more than 24 million subscribers on the platform. He also boasts 13.2 million followers on Instagram and nearly 9 million on X. KSI’s entry into the world of professional boxing came after he took on another internet icon, Logan Paul, in an exhibition bout in February 2018, which ended in a controversial majority draw. The rematch in November 2019 saw KSI secure victory with a split decision.
At the press conference to announce the KSI-Tommy Fury showdown, KSI expressed his determination to silence the skeptics: “I’m fighting Tommy Fury. The man that defeated the once undefeated Jake Paul is now my opponent, and I can’t wait to silence all the doubters that believe I have no chance. After this fight, you’ll understand that I truly am that guy.”
Fury, on the other hand, exuded confidence, highlighting his past victory over Jake Paul and predicting a swift victory: “I’ve already beaten Jake Paul, so all that is left for me to do is send this man to sleep. I’ll do that inside four rounds. This is easy money.”
These bold words set the stage for a thrilling matchup between two internet giants, each looking to solidify their standing in the world of professional boxing.
The main event is not the only attraction of the evening, as fans can also look forward to Logan Paul, brother of Jake Paul, squaring off against MMA fighter Dillon Danis. The entertainment doesn’t end there, with other notable matchups that include YouTube and TikTok sensation Salt Papi facing off against fellow YouTuber Slim.

During this four-round tag team bout, two fighters will enter the ring with their partners waiting on the apron, ready to tag in at any time.
The excitement doesn’t stop there, as the undercard showcases another intriguing bout between Sam Andrew Gumbley, known as S-X, and Deji Araoye, DTG.
