KSI vows to ‘knock out Joe Fournier in spectacular fashion’… but fears it could damage his career

KSI has vowed to knock out Joe Fournier in spectacular fashion – but fears it could hinder his future goals.

The YouTube, music, and boxing star crossover returns this Saturday against the millionaire nightclub tycoon turned fighter Fournier.

And it will be the toughest test of KSI’s career, going against a famous boxer for the first time who also has a 9-0 record.

Fournier watched from ringside in January as KSI brutally knocked out a game of Faze Temperrr with a textbook combination.

And the social media sensation has warned to expect the same thing tomorrow night – even if it comes at the cost of scaring away rivals.

KSI, 29, told SunSport: “It’s actually a good point, maybe I should stop winning emphatically.

“Maybe I should start winning through split decisions and stuff like that!

“The way I beat Temperrr will terrify a lot of people who want to fight me.

“When I beat Joe Fournier in spectacular fashion, more people would say, ‘You know, I think KSI is a really good guy. Maybe there’s no point fighting him, because I don’t want to be a meme.’ “

Fournier, 40, botched KSI’s post-fight speech after beating Temperrr, 29, to insist he be next.

So the social media sensation proved to be happy to oblige after a moment of deliberation.

KSI said: “He literally charged into the ring and just demanded he be my next opponent.

“Crazy, I was there weighing a few people and he was the hungriest.

“I thought, ‘Cool, you have a great record, you are a good test for me, let’s go.'”
