Tommy Fury eyes KSI bout, suggests “No-Elbow” Clause

Light heavyweight up-and-comer, Tommy Fury, proposes a unique “no-elbow” clause in potential future bout agreements, a pointed jab at YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI’s recent controversial knockout victory over Joe Fournier. The knockout, initially hailed as a second-round victory for KSI, was later marred by video footage depicting an illegal elbow blow to Fournier, leading the Professional Boxing Association (PBA) to declare a no-decision.

Following the controversial fight, a charged exchange occurred between Fury and KSI in the ring, further fueling anticipation for a face-off. Having already bested Jake Paul, another YouTube star, in a tense eight-round match, Fury expresses confidence in outperforming KSI, known for his more aggressive style.

Fury, on his YouTube channel, criticizes KSI and his ilk, dismissing them as mere pretenders in the boxing world. The influencer-boxing phenomenon, he asserts, will cease when they face real professional boxers. In a colorful metaphor comparing his victories over influencer-boxers to devouring sides of a pie, Fury makes his ambitions clear: to end the trend of YouTubers in professional boxing.
