KSI has agreed to a FREE-to-air sparring match with streamer IShowSpeed – and made sure it will clash with Jake Paul’s next fight.
The YouTube, music and boxing star has formed a friendship with Speed but the pair regularly clash online.
And Speed – real name Darren Jason Watkins Jr – has pleased to spar with KSI.
He posted on X, formerly Twitter: “Bro it’s that time I’ve been waiting to kick your ass for a long time when is the sparring match stop ignoring me and stop being scared drop a date now bitch.”
KSI, 30, responded: “December 15th, come through and let’s do this.”
Fans could not help but notice that the date comes on the same day KSI’s arch rival Paul makes his boxing return against Andre August.
Speed, 18, replied to KSI: “I’ll be in London December 15 don’t bail out.”
KSI then said: “Oh I ain’t bailing. 4am uk time let’s gooooooooo.”
That rubbed salt in the wounds as Paul’s fight in Florida is expected to also be in the early hours of the morning – leaving fans in hysterics.
One said: “top tier s***housery.”

Another added: “Blud is doing it on Jake’s fight day gotta respect the hatred.”
One joked: “This is some next level pettiness I can get behind.”
Another said: “Man said same date as Jake fight lool gotta respect the s***housery.”
Paul returns against August, 35, having beaten ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, 38, two months ago.
The American, 26, bounced from defeat to Tommy Fury, 24, by split-decision in Saudi Arabia.
Fury went onto controversially beat KSI on points in October, in a result that is now under appeal.
