YouTube star and influencer boxing pioneer KSI has challenged Slim Albaher and Anthony Taylor to a 2v1 tag-team match for his return to the ring.
However, he’s now gearing up to touch gloves once again and in aYouTube videoon June 8 called out two opponents to a tag-team match on August 31. “They’ve told me to fight a warm-up fight since I’ve had 10 months off,” KSI explained.
He continued: “What they forget ladies and gentlemen is that I am not Jake Paul. I want to fight. I am here to fight. I want to challenge myself. So I’m going to fight a person who has been on my case for ages. So I will be fighting Slim and Anthony Taylor in a 2v1 handicap tag-team match.”
The YouTuber gave the two fighters 24 hours to respond. However, both have already agreed. “2V1 lmao, I’d know his lights out by myself,” Slim wrote on X. “If this is my only chance after chasing KSI for years then I’m sorry AT you ain’t getting tagged. Let’s make it happen.”
Similarly, Anthony Taylor also publicly accepted the offer on social media, all but confirming we’ll see it happen.
