KSI ready to snub UFC legend Tyron Woodley and instead fight Joe Fournier

KSI is set to snub a crossover fight with Tyron Woodley to instead take on Joe Fournier in the ring.

The YouTube star - real name JJ Olatunji - is set to return to the ring again this year before pursuing a mega-fight with influencer rival Jake Paul. Last time out, KSI defeated late replacement FaZe Temperrr on the latest instalment of his Misfits Boxing series, before naming Woodley and Fournier as potential opponents for his next outing.

Woodley has already faced Paul twice and was brutally knocked out in their second meeting, but was expected to get the call to face KSI before the Briton instead chose Dillon Danis. With Danis now out of the picture, Woodley will now push to get another shot and called out his new rival on Twitter.
