Tyson Fury’s reaction

Viddal Riley vs Tommy Fury – who says no?

Vidal Riley has wanted the Tommy Fury fight for as long as I can remember.

TNT has wanted none of it so far, but if he’s serious about challenging for world titles, he has to face him at some point.

They both have a following, it would just make sense. But will Fury accept it?

What’s next for KSI?

If Jake Paul has his eyes set on the Tommy Fury rematch, what’s next for KSI?

Conor McGregor seems keen to fight him.

Going back to fight influencers is a step back. KSI is a level above that now.

Eddie Hearn has backed KSI as tonight’s winner.

What a night of boxing

Say what you like about these events, but they do not lack entertainment.

KSI will feel hard done by, and so he should, but he and Misfits put on another incredible event.

KSI: ‘I was robbed’

KSI has had to be escorted away after punching a screen behind him.

Before he left, he said: ‘I understand the Fury name. I won it. It’s outrageous. Minus a point as well. I landed the cleanest shots. He couldn’t get any jabs off.

‘I was bang on the money. How!? Double jabs on. I don’t know what he did. Fury landed 12 punches the whole fight and he won it?

‘I f***ing hate losing man.’

Chris Eubank Jr says KSI should have won

Chris Eubank Jr has weighed in as he says: ‘I thought KSI landed the cleanest shots. Was moving better, boxing better. The points deduction was huge. Boxing is a strange thing’

A controversial result

That was controversial.

KSI believes he won the first three round, and with the deducted point on top of that it should have been a clear win for him in his eyes.

He’s set to appeal.

KSI speaks

‘Robbery bro . How many jabs did you land? You got hardly any shots,’ asks KSI.

‘I’m the YouTuber, you’re the boxer. You have to win. I understand.

‘The amount of times he hit me in the back of the head. So many times. He was just grabbing me. I’m sorry. It’s outrageous. We’re going to appeal. I want to appeal. I need to see it again. I felt like I won that’.

Tommy Fury on KSI

‘Listen, he’s an awkward man. At the end of the day I got the victory. We are 10-0.’ said Tommy Fury.

‘I haven’t spoken to him. A lot went in the build-up. I’m done with this cross-over s***. Any of the Paul’s want it, I welcome it with open arms’.

TOMMY WINS BY DECISION

Something doesn’t add up here.

The first judge had it as a draw and the other two in favour of Tommy Fury.

To the judges…

KSI may have just won this.

ROUND 6

It’s gone to the last round.

A must-win round six after the earlier points deduction for Tommy Fury.

TNT has been reluctant to throw heavy punches as KSI gets on the inside again.

More KSI advice

ROUND 5

They’ve landed 26 punches each going into this round.

He’s trying to tire KSI out, but in a six-round fight there may not be enough time.

‘This is a hobby for me. I’m a WWE superstar. I’m moving back to the WWE. I have my eye on something, on someone. I’m an American boy. I want that US title. Rey Mysterio I already beat you once and I’m coming for that championship.

‘Maybe if Conor McGregor wants to stand up for his b**** I’ll face him next year.’

LOGAN PAUL WINS BY DISQUALIFICATION

And Dillon Danis is disqualified.

Insane end to the fight

It’s all over.

Logan Paul has won every round but Dillon Danis is still in it, kind of.

Dillon Danis still hasn’t thrown a punch

To the judges…

That was fight of the night.

Walid showed his heart and came out fighting in the last round but Deen The Great should be winning this.

He could’ve knocked out Deen The Great, who threw himself out of the ring to waste some time.

These are two of the very best in this scene.

Walid Sharks vs Deen The Great: Into the final round

ANTHONY TAYLOR WINS BY UNANIMOUS DECISION

All three judges score the bout 49-45 in favour of Anthony Taylor.

I’ll be shocked if this isn’t a win for the American.

Disappointing from King Kenny.

Into the final round

‘Why are you backing up and trying to box when you’re losing a fight?’ asks Daley Perales.

Brutal from Kenny’s coach and brother.

It’s time to go for the knockout.

King Kenny: POINT DEDUCTED

King Kenny sees a point deducted for excessive holding.

If he’s to win this, it will need to be a knock-out.

Commentators aren’t happy

I’m not too sure why but the commentators are complaining with Anthony Taylor’s game plan.

Yes, it’s not making for the best watch.

But you’re matching him against a man with a huge reach advantage…

Kenny has to find his range

King Kenny is allowing Anthony Taylor to rush him.

He needs to find his range and utilise his reach advantage.

There could be a knock-out here, if Taylor rushes him and Kenny can land a clean hand.

Two more rounds left.

King Kenny’s coach is not happy

Daley Perales, brother and coach of King Kenny, is telling him he’s not been good enough.

MY MATE NATE WINS BY UNANIMOUS DECISION

The judges score it four rounds to none.

It was a perfect game plan from the man fighting out of Thailand.

He could go far in this scene!

Result up next

That may be one of the better technical fights you’ll see in influencer boxing.

My Mate Nate found his range and used his jab, throwing a lot of punches.

Whindersson Nunes went for the power shots and tried to knock him down.

Let’s see how the judges score this. For me, it’s My Mate Nate or a draw.

The most respectful fight ever?

It’s no secret that My Mate Nate may be the nicest guy in the crossover boxing scene.

He brought Whindersson Nunes Thai sweets in the press conference.

Each time the bell goes, he puts his glove out to fist bump his opponent too.

Into Round 3…

KSI is here

Here comes the nightmare.

KSI is in the building. He fights in the main event against Tommy Fury later.

Can he shock the world?

My Mate Nate starting strong

My Mate Nate has shown some good footwork in the first round.

He has a strong jab and looks to be the better boxer technically.

Whindersson Nunes is one scary guy though.

Ryan Taylor is here

Ryan Taylor was supposed to face Swarmz in a prelim fight earlier today.

However, he was arrested in the build-up and took to X to admit that he couldn’t make weight after being in jail ahead of the fight.

He’s made it to the U.K. from Dubai though, and he’s watching on.

It could’ve been so different for Swarmz, who was knocked out by Ed Matthews just 30 seconds in.

UP NEXT: Whindersson Nunes vs My Mate Nate

Next up is the Brazilian star Whinderson Nunes. He has over 60,000,000 followers on Instagram alone.

He takes on My Mate Nate.

Both of these fighters lost to King Kenny in the Kingpyn tournament earlier this year.

TAG TEAM RESULT: DRAW

Pineda Coladas and WassabiLMAO in the tag team event ends in a draw.

It’s probably fair, but Alex Wassabi vs Luis Pineda could have been a bout of it’s own, while I’d have loved to have seen B-Dave take on NichLmao himself.

The MMA star has arrived in fashion, pulling up to the arena in a Rolls Royce.

The action so far

The prelims provided great entertainment earlier.

We started off with DTG vs SX, with DTG coming out on top with a first round knock-out.

Then came the Women’s Flyweight clash as Astrid Wett came out on top by a split decision, which caused some discussion in the arena.

Tempo Arts took the Misfits Heavyweight title, with another controversial decision.

Then came Ed Matthews, who took the fight on just a few days’ notice – and knocked Swarmz out just 30 seconds in.

Undercard underway!

What a first round it’s been in the first round of the tag team match up.

We’ve seen Alex Wassabi drop Luis Pineda and make him bleed from the nose before B-Dave was tagged in and dropped Wassabi himself.

This is entertainment!
