Ryan Garcia, the American professional boxer, has called out KSI for mocking a disabled person to promote his boxing fight against Tommy Fury, scheduled on October 14 at the Manchester Arena in England. The Misfits X DAZN: The Prime Card event will also feature Logan Paul, the best friend of KSI, who will take on Dillon Danis, fighting for the first time in the squared circle.
Just like the American MMA fighter Dillon Danis has been able to promote his upcoming bout against the YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul on social media with non-stop trolling of the man, KSI tried his hand at getting under the skin of Tommy Fury. But, his attempt of mocking “TNT,” at the expense of a disabled person, backfired, leading to severe backlash from several fighters on social media.

The tweet from KSI on his official Twitter account read, “Can’t lie, Tommy Fury has never looked better”. Ryan Garcia, who held the WBC Interim Lightweight Championship in 2021, went on to quote the tweet which some words of wisdom for KSI, it read, “Nah this ain’t cool man Can’t use a disabled man as a joke, he’s going to see this and it’ll hurt him He looks good and he’s grinding! I’m proud of him and he should keep going”
Dillon Danis, known for getting personal with his opponents, took offence to the tweet of KSI mocking the disabled person too. He fired back at him with a quote of his own, which read, “Using a disabled person for your punch line on a joke f**k you p****y”.
Moreover, the first press conference for the upcoming Misfits X DAZN: The Prime Card event has been confirmed for August 22, Tuesday, at the Wembley Arena in London. It is expected to have KSI going face-to-face with Tommy Fury and Logan Paul doing the same with Dillon Danis, which could mean a lot of fireworks before the fights in Manchester two months later.
