KSI's boxing return against Alex Wassabi is being targeted for August, with Jake Paul now stepping in to help with negotiations for the event.
British YouTuber KSI has had a long-running rivalry with Wassabi, which has heated up again after the American defeated his younger brother Deji last month in his boxing debut. KSI has fought three times, twice as an amateur and once as a professional, and is plotting a ring return in the hopes of earning a fight with Paul.
But he first has set out a plan to fight twice before the end of the year, with Paul and his Most Valuable Promotions working towards making sure Wassabi becomes the first opponent. Paul's promotional company haven't signed Wassabi as yet, but have agreed to work in an advisory capacity to help push his boxing career.
