need to know facts and figures about the
mega hyped battle between prominent

KS eyes first boxing match ignited the
fire while logan paul was dealing with
the consequences of his disastrous
japanese suicide forest video ksi was
preparing for his first boxing match on
february 3rd 2018 KS I fought against
fellow youtuber Joe Weller winning the
fight by technical knockout after
commending Weller’s formidable
performance in his victory speech KS I
proceeded to call out the Paul brothers
Matt’s got this boat right now if any
[Applause]
Paul and interestingly KS I worked with
world-renowned trainer Floyd Mayweather
senior while jig Paul for a supporting
boxing match vs KS eyes brother Deji
trained with a champ Floyd Mayweather
jr. no it’s over bro and you know it and
you know it that’s one way to hype a
fight
number nine months of vlogs hyped the
when you have a couple of youtubers
getting ready to duke it out there is
bound to be a lot of trash-talking as
for this rivalry
it was way past overplayed ksi and the
Paul brothers spent most of their time
uploading vlogs and talking smack about
each other
just as much as they spent training they
even took things a step further by
creating their own diss tracks with
music videos even their respective
brothers joined in on the childish
behavior
you’re going down yes every upload
between them was extremely cringy and
the over aggressive nature of it all
made it clear that the two may just be
putting on a show
number 8 Smosh made a video satirizing
the feud before the day of the fight
another major YouTube channel added
their take on the feed with a video of
their own comedy channel Smosh uploaded
a parody video where CSI and log Pollin
are sent to YouTube detention for their
juvenile behavior I’m gonna beat you
like America beat you British in the
Civil War just try on the surface the
video seems like it’s just ridiculing
its subject matter and it is however it
did provide some useful insight on just
how outlandish this whole fight has been
from the months of bad mouthing and
pre-planning to the barely disguised
marketing tactics it’s just like how
people fight now so you gotta find time
to sell tickets like set up a live
stream find sponsors like what’s the
point of even doing anything if you
can’t take the hard-earned money of your
fans pants it does like many sons number
7 they may have created MMA careers for
themselves yes you have heard that right
on one hand it makes sense that ksi
would continue his potential martial
arts career or otherwise potentially
merely be known as the youtuber who
fights other youtubers Logan Paul on the
other hand well really former UFC
heavyweight fighter and comedian Brendan
Schaub has endorsed Paul which begs us
to question why even it brings different
eyeballs from the YouTube world the UFC
vice-versa and I’ll see Logan Palhares
is the kind of the catch I think it’s
good man I think what they’re doing is
good we get that Paul has experience in
high school wrestling but that and this
fight is pretty much as far as his
combat experience goes UFC has yet to
officially offer any kind of
contract and odds are they won’t we
think number six the Paul brothers
taunted ksi and offered up their dad to
fight at the outset of months of absurd
vlogs and burning money on insulting
music videos the Paul brothers were
contemptuous of chaos eyes challenge and
they even claimed not to know who he was
they also mocked ksi by challenging him
to fight their dad 50-something Greg
Paul but ksi wasn’t having it and called
the brothers out for trying to weasel
out of his challenge I’m sorry but I am
NOT going to fight your creepy Vin
Diesel on crack looking ass dad months
later Greg Paul was attacked outside a
press conference in England to hype the
fight which set off a round of
recriminations and legal issues number
five the weigh-in was a total circus
typically weigh-ins consist of a
somewhat professional setting with
trainers and fighters hyping the match
in a world where Logan Paul and ksi are
fighting the term professional isn’t
even in the dictionary the two turned to
the entire win into a circus of
immaturity ksi weighed in while wearing
a mask of a Logan’s girlfriend actress
Chloe Bennett Logan on the other hand
was having a ball showing off his bulge
to the press so why take either of these
guys seriously on the other hand it’s
about what you’d expect
number four tickets weren’t cheap talk
about breaking the bank with so many
people hating ksi Logan Paul or both
people wanted to see blood even if that
meant shelling out hundreds and hundreds
of dollars yeah you heard that right
tickets were selling like hotcakes and
VIP ringside tix cost upwards of 600
bucks and don’t even get us started on
the scalpers prices ticket prices didn’t
stop thousands of people across the
globe from traveling to the arena after
all attendance was around 20,000 people
and total revenues were in the millions
number three the fight was widely
pirated on Twitch didn’t have money for
a ticket had nothing better to do on
your Saturday night well YouTube had you
covered for a price rather than
streaming it for free of course
YouTube’s charged users ten bucks to
watch the fight on their own platform
while YouTube did indeed reap the
financial rewards of streaming for
hundreds of thousands of viewers many
others were illegally streaming the
fight on Twitch with an estimated
viewership of over 1 million viewers at
least for part of the fight now that’s a
lot of lost YouTube revenue number two
the fight ended in
draw spectators were out for blood but
by the end of the fight they didn’t
exactly receive any the undercard of
Jake Paul and edgy notwithstanding there
was no bloodbath alas too many fans
dismay the fight ended in a drop which
didn’t stop both youtubers from claiming
to be the real winner I’m here to
explain why I won the fight judges got
it wrong stay up like absolutely be
asked and there was another complaint
although it’s hard to feel much sympathy
not only was the fight kind of boring to
watch but with no winner many of those
who placed bets lost money it wasn’t
long before some people began demanding
refunds
however the draw wasn’t even the worst
part of it number one there’s already a
rematch planned during the post match
interviews sweat fountain ksi stated
that there’s only one thing left to do
to fix the time seriously well this
isn’t exactly a surprise reveal or
anything in March 2018 ksi and Logan
Paul were contacted for a two-match deal
this has led many to believe that the
fight was entirely staged who knows
quite frankly despite all the
complaining or perhaps because of it the
whole profitable rivalry seems destined
to continue for better or worse do you
