Jake Paul and KSI have verbally agreed to fight next year, but the American's promotional company have poured cold water on the idea by claiming the bout won't be sanctioned.
Both men have been licensed in California, one of the strictest athletic commissions in the world, during their brief fighting careers. However, Paul has moved up to 5-0 as a professional, and could earn a sixth win against Anderson Silva later this year, while KSI is officially just 1-0 despite knocking out two opponents on Saturday night.
The Brit defeated rapper Swarmz and 2-5 professional boxer Luis Pineda in front of a sold-out crowd at The O2 arena last weekend, but neither bout was approved by the British Boxing Board of Control, and his BoxRec page still has his record marked as 1-0 for his 2019 split-decision victory over Logan Paul.
