KSI told he will suffer same fate as rival Jake Paul in upcoming fight

KSI has been told by his upcoming opponent Joe Fournier that he will suffer the same fate as YouTube rival Jake Paul when they meet in the ring.

Fournier, 40, is KSI's latest challenger as the pair meet at Misfits Boxing 7 on May 13 in London. He is unbeaten in nine professional fights with most of his wins coming on the regional circuit in the Dominican Republic. Fournier was beaten by former two-weight world champion David Haye in his last fight, but the bout was sanctioned as an exhibition so the loss didn't go on his professional record.

Paul recently suffered his first boxing defeat to Love Island star Tommy Fury, with the Brit serving as the first professional boxer Paul had ever faced in the ring. Fournier thinks KSI is in the same position as Paul despite 'The Nightmare' already having a win over a professional boxer as he stopped Luis Pineda in a farcical 'two fights in one night event' back in August.
