KSI finally confirms boxing return date after two-year hiatus

British YouTube star KSI is finally back in the boxing ring this summer - more than two years after his famous final bout against former rival Logan Paul

While the Paul brothers have been competing regularly, especially Jake Paul, at long last even KSI has finally announced his boxing return on Twitter

On May 4, KSI uploaded a teaser trailer to Twitter, which revealed a fight date of August 27, 2022

KSI is one of the few personalities credited with kick-starting the current ‘influencer boxing’ craze

KSI - real name Olajide "JJ" Olatunji - and Paul join the paid rankings for their sequel in Los Angeles, which KSI won by points

However, it took a long time before KSI returned to the ring; The global health crisis and his budding music career take precedence over the YouTuber's martial arts career
