Luis Pineda was battling extreme nerves before making his ring walk to fight KSI at the YouTuber's 'two fights in one night' event.
KSI made his boxing return in August after nearly a three-year absence by beating rapper Swarmz and Pineda on the same night. Much was made of Pineda, who stepped into the ring with a record of two wins and five defeats, in addition to an experienced amateur background. Pineda and Swarmz both stepped up on short notice after KSI's original opponent Alex Wassabi withdrew from the fight.
YouTube boxer FaZe Sensei, who lost a controversial decision to King Kenny at the event, has now revealed the enormity of the event caught up with Pineda before his ring walk. The Mexican fighter was overwhelmed by the 18,000 fans in attendance at The O2 arena and his manager had to be hunted down to make sure he was still making the walk.
