KSI, the English professional boxer, appeared on the recent episode of the Jonathan Ross Show, where he got trolled for his weird boxing style in a hilarious interaction with performers like Jack Whitehall, Cush Jumbo, and Paloma Faith. Notably, the 30-year-old was subject to a lot of criticism for his boxing style during his match against Tommy Fury last year.
In the headlining act of the MF & DAZN: X Series 10 - The Prime Card, which generated over 1.3 million PPV buys, KSI took on his fellow countryman Tommy Fury at the Manchester Arena. After losing to Tommy Fury via majority decision, KSI lashed out at his opponent while insisting that it was a “robbery.”
During the Jonathan Ross Show, KSI reiterated his stance about the Tommy Fury fight before hyping up his boxing skills in a hilarious interaction. He said, “My previous fight with Tommy, I didn’t really get hit much, yeah that’s kinda my style. I have a lucid style that allows me not get hit much.”
KSI also mimicked his fighting stance live in front of the guests and the fans in attendance, which led to a bunch of laughter in the studio. Overall, it was a fun episode of the Jonathan Ross Show, which was elevated by KSI’s presence, who also brought more spotlight to the influencer boxing scene.
According to the reports, Wayne Rooney, the Manchester United legend is in talks with Misfits Boxing about a potential one-off celebrity boxing match. He could go head-to-head with KSI, the co- founder of the boxing promotion, if the match ever comes to fruition.
