YouTube star KSI admits Andrew Tate could be an option for future boxing fight

YouTube star KSI did not consider Andrew Tate as a possible opponent for his boxing return this weekend, but admits he could be tempted to face him down the line.

The social media sensation will park his chart-topping rap career on Saturday night at a sold out O2 Arena when he fights not one but two opponents after three years out of the ring. He'll open the night against rapper Swarmz, before coming back hours later for the main event against Mexican Luis Pineda.

The Brit was initially due to face Alex Wassabi before pulling out with a concussion and decided to add a second opponent when fans were underwhelmed by Swarmz replacing the American. KSI has been mentioned as a possible opponent for the combat comeback of former champion kick-boxer Andrew Tate, but believes that after his blanket social media ban he could prove too controversial.
