YouTube star KSI began his return to the boxing ring with a second round knockout over rap rival Swarmz.
The duo were once friends when they recorded the single Houdini in 2020 and became bitter enemies over disputes with the promotion. They settled that feud in the ring tonight at a sold out O2 arena in London, with KSI dropping his rival within seconds.
Swarmz was able to beat the 10 count, but was struggling from the first bell, spending most of his time desperately trying to avoid the onslaught of his opponent and he was again on the canvas with a slip towards the end of the round. Fans were surprised in their own right to see the musician even make it out of the opening stanza, although he landed barely any offence after struggling to get off his stool.
