KSI and Joe Fournier agree to $10million bet for YouTube boxing fight

KSI has accepted Joe Fournier's challenge after he put £10million on the line to buy his Misfits Boxing promotion ahead of their fight.

YouTube boxer KSI will face 40-year-old 'boxing billionaire' Fournier in his latest exhibition fight as the pair headline Misfits Boxing 7 at the OVO Wembley Arena on May 13. Fournier is unbeaten as a professional with most of his wins coming on the regional circuit in the Dominican Republic. He suffered his first boxing defeat in his last outing as he was decisively beaten by former two-weight world champion David Haye in September 2021.

Fournier has lived up to his nickname by offering to buy's KSI Misfits Boxing promotion for £10million before they step in the ring to face each other. The 40-year-old insisted the brand will lose 10 times its value after his fight against KSI and he also offered to buy the YouTuber's drinks brand Prime Energy, which he owns alongside former opponent Logan Paul.
