YouTube star JMX details plans for boxing comeback after three-year absence

YouTube star JMX is planning to launch his boxing comeback in style this weekend after accepting a short-notice fight with TikTok sensation Ginty.

The giant 6'5" influencer has struggled to get fights due to his imposing size, two impressive boxing wins and a brutal second-round TKO in his MMA debut at the end of 2019. Initially due to fight three different opponents including Too Hot To Handle 's Chase DeMoor, JMX has now been matched with Callum Ginty, who is 1-0 in his own right.

JMX's real name is Joel Morris, a FIFA YouTuber who has transitioned into behind-the-scenes work of the business side of his Xcademy venture for budding creators and other start-ups. But he has been keen to get back in the ring and earn some major fights after three wins across combat sports.
