UK-based YouTuber and boxer JJ "KSI "reacted to Viddal Riley ranking Jake Paul’s skills higher than him. In one of his recent videos, Riley ranked the former YouTuber’s skills above KSI, sparking debates among the boxing community. Riley is KSI’s former trainer, and to everyone’s surprise, he presented a contradictory view and gave Paul a higher overall rating with specific scores in key areas.
A week ago, Riley posted a video on his YouTube channel and presented a detailed rating of both KSI and Jake Paul. For KSI, the 26-year-old presented an analytical rating of 65, marking his attack at 6, power at 10, and speed at 8. However, he scored KSI lower in defence and boxing IQ, at 2 and 3. On the other hand, Riley presented a rating of 73 to Jake Paul, which includes 8 in attack, 7 in power, and 7 in speed and defence each.
Paul received a rating of 7 in boxing IQ, significantly higher than KSI's. It means that Viddal thinks of Paul as a more technical sound boxer.
KSI reacts to Riley ranking Jake Paul higher than him
The 30-year-old reacted to Riley’s ranking, and in his latest video said, “Personally I think it’s completely wrong. I think he is way off the mark. This isn’t baseball, and I’m going to reject it. I rebuke it in the name of Jesus. Just no, the stats are wrong. No, no brother, Jake Paul stuck in me. I’m over it.” Not only this but in the same video, KSI clapped back at fans who called 2023 his worst year.
KSI said, “You're saying 2023 has been my worst year ever? Are you serious? Where do I begin? We'll start with Prime. Prime sold a billion bottles! A billion! Not even a million, not 100 million, a billion. Name another content creator that has sold a billion of anything."
