KSI will box Tommy Fury in Manchester on Saturday night, in a bout that will surely be one of the most watched of the year.

YouTuber KSI (real name Olajide Olatunji) has crossed into boxing, rapping and business in recent years, partnering with ex-opponent Logan Paul to launch the energy drink company Prime in 2022.

Next up for the 30-year-old is this clash with Fury, who some will know from his stint on the reality TV show Love Island, though others will know him as the half-brother of heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury. Tommy, 24, is undefeated as a professional, while fellow Briton KSI has also never been beaten – though he has less experience in the pro ranks.

In the co-main event, Paul will be in action against fellow American Dillon Danis, a former teammate of UFC star Conor McGregor.
