Joe Fournier claims he broke six ribs of his last opponent before KSI fight

KSI's next opponent Joe Fournier has claimed he broke six of Reykon's ribs when the pair fought two years ago.

'Boxing billionaire' Fournier, 40, is KSI's latest challenger as the pair meet at Misfits Boxing 7 on May 13. Fournier is unbeaten in nine professional fights with most of his wins coming on the regional circuit in the Dominican Republic. Despite being beaten by former two-weight world champion David Haye in his last fight, Fournier made easy work of Reykon in April 2021 as he stopped the Colombian singer in the second round.

Whilst issuing a warning to KSI, Fournier said : "Tell him I said he's got fake abs. Let's see that tremendous shape when he gets ripped to the body. Let's see how those abs hold up, they are men's health abs they aren't real abs. His abs are not going to do anything. They are not taking these punches, trust me. Reykon walked out of the ring after I fought him with six broken ribs and hasn't spoken to me since."
