KSI-Tommy Fury and Logan Paul-Dillon Danis: How to watch the fight on ESPN+ PPV
Looking to watch the KSI vs. Tommy Fury and Logan Paul vs. Dillon Danis fights on ESPN+ PPV? Here's how to do it.
Tommy Fury returns to the ring for the first time since his split-decision victory over Jake Paul back in February, to face another YouTuber-turned-boxer, Olajide Olayinka Williams "JJ" Olatunji, best known as KSI, at the AO Arena in Manchester, England, on Saturday (2 p.m. on ESPN+ PPV).
In the co-main event, Jake's brother, Logan Paul, will meet MMA fighter Dillon Danis in a boxing match.
Fury (9-0, 4 KOs), 24, of Manchester, is the half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and is trained by Tyson's father, John Fury. He became popular in the UK after participating in the reality show, Love Island. He started fighting in 2018 without an amateur career.
KSI (1-0 in professional boxing) has more than 24 millions YouTube subscribers, 13.2 million followers on Instagram and almost 9 million on X. He fought Logan Paul in an exhibition bout in February 2018 that ended in a controversial majority draw (57-57, 57-47 and 58-57 for KSI). In the rematch in November 22019, KSI defeated Paul by split decision (56-55, 57-54 and 55-56).
"I'm fighting Tommy Fury. The man that defeated the once undefeated Jake Paul is now my opponent and I can't wait to silence all the doubters that believe I have no chance," KSI said during a news conference to officially announce the fight back in July. "After this fight, you'll understand that I truly am that guy."
Fury ended a winning run by Jake Paul. Fury suffered a knockdown in the final round but won with scorecards of 74-75, 76-73, 76-73. He promised an easier fight against KSI.
"I've already beaten Jake Paul and so all that is left for me to do is send this man to sleep," Fury said. "I'll do that inside four rounds. This is easy money."
Other entertaining matchups include YouTube and TikTok sensation Salt Papi vs. fellow YouTuber Slim, and a tag team boxing match between social media influencers Wassabi Lmao (Alex Wassabi and NichLmao) vs. Los Pineda Coladas (Luis Alcaraz Pineda and BDave). During the four-round tag team bout, two fighters get in the ring with their partners outside of it standing on the apron. One of the fighters inside the ring can tag his partner at any time to get in the ring and continue the fight.
