Meet the MMA star competing for $100,000 who is often mistaken for KSI

KSI is one of the most famous internet celebrities of the last decade - and MMA star Simeon Powell has hilariously revealed he is often mistaken for YouTuber-turned-boxer.

Powell, 23, has the chance to win $100,000 when he competes in the inaugural season of PFL Europe later this year. Standing at 6'5" with seven wins already under his belt, Powell is back in action on March 25 as he headlines PFL's upcoming event in Newcastle. The Brit possess a crafty stand-up game and has stopped all but one of his professional opponents.

'Smooth' was in attendance to watch KSI brutally knockout fellow content creator FaZe Temperrr at Wembley Arena earlier this month. Powell admitted that fans often mistake him for KSI, although in his opinion he is far better looking than the popular YouTuber.
