KSI insists he is "very serious" about "destroying" Tommy Fury in grudge fight

YouTube boxer KSI has insisted that he is "very serious" about fighting Tommy Fury, and is pushing for four major fights as he continues his fighting career.

The Brit is set to take on 9-0 professional boxer Joe Fournier on May 13 at the OVO Arena Wembley, and while he has previously stated that he wants to retire at the end of the year, he appears to have multiple fights on his mind. After conquering the UK with sell-out shows as a musician and a fighter at the O2 and Wembley as well as Staples Center in LA, he wants to go international next.

KSI, whose real name is JJ Olatunji, is one of the most recognisable faces in the UK after successful ventures across pop culture including a thriving YouTube channel, a No.1 rap album and an undefeated boxing career. But he plans to hit the Philippines and Brazil in an effort to beat home favourites Salt Papi and Whindersson Nunes.
