KSI has revealed the advice that Anthony Joshua has provided for him ahead of this weekend’s upcoming fight with Logan Paul.

Joshua is good friends with KSI and the pair have trained alongside each other on occasion.

KSI has finished his training camp ahead of the rematch which takes place at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles.

With fight week well underway, the 26-year-old has been speaking to members of the media in somewhat of a break ahead of this weekend’s event.

Former unified heavyweight champion of the world Joshua is currently in training camp for a highly anticipated rematch of his own, against Andy Ruiz Jr – and KSI told of the advice provided to him.

“He’s just told me to train hard, remain focused and be calm and relaxed in the gym,” KSI told The Sportsman.

“I’m full zen right now and I’m ready man.”

KSI also believes that he can deliver a knockout on fight night.

“If I work hard it will be early. If I want to enjoy it and take my time and really finish him off, then I will probably make it a late knockout.

“He knows what’s going to happen to him.”
