Social media stars KSI and Jake Paul will return to the ring in the summer against different opponents after contract talks hit a new snag this week.
The YouTube rivals have been going back-and-forth in public for the past four years, since the Brit defeated Paul's older brother, Logan, in November 2019. While contract talks began to heat up behind the scenes over the past six months, Mirror Fighting understands that negotiations have stalled.
It is expected that the American will pursue his options with "professional fighters", including a contractually-obligated rematch with Tommy Fury this summer. Meanwhile, on May 1, KSI is believed to be making his return at Wembley Arena, for a showdown with Joe Fournier, although that bout has not been confirmed.
