KSI and Logan Paul will meet once more before fight week, this time in London for a press conference.

A decision to host a press conference in the UK was made after high demand from fans, with the initial decision to not host one overturned.

The first, in Los Angeles, California, was bizarre. Insults were traded as promoter and head of Matchroom Boxing USA Eddie Hearn admitted it was a ‘circus’ he ‘needed to stop from becoming a complete circus’.

WATCH KSI VS LOGAN PAUL II UK PRESS CONFERENCE LIVE

While it’s expected that the fight will be the most watched and subscribed to in DAZN’s history, it has drawn controversy for staging two fighters who have never had a professional fight in their lives as the main event.

Here’s what you need to know about the press conference.

What day is it?

It’s on Monday, 7th October. Not long at all then!

What time is it?

It will be at 6pm UK time, so those who have work or school will have plenty of time to get there!

Where is it?

It’s at the infamous music venue Troxy, 490 Commercial Road, Limehouse, London.

Can I attend?

Unfortunately not. There were 3,000 tickets available online but they have all sold out. High, high demand.

How do I watch online?

It will be streamed in the same way as before, on both fighters’ YouTube channels. All for free.

KSI brings out a thesaurus and gives it to Briggs: "Learn some new words"

Logan Paul:

"I might kill this man. JJ is on his fifth abortion. His fifth. Five babies - dead. I might return the favour and kill you."

KSI:

"You've got a very good jab but you can't fight backwards. All your boxing ability is going to go out the window."

Logan Paul:

"You have got heart but that won't matter. Be as tough as you want, it won't matter."

KSI"

"My biggest strength is my actual strength. You cannot knock me out, in that last round you were begging for mercy. I could hear you saying 'nah, not like this. Not now.'"

Fans have begun to throw things at Paul, who says 'if you're going to throw something, at least hit me'

Over to Shannon Briggs...

"Logan has been training really hard, he's training like a heavyweight champion. Six days a week. i'm excited, he's looking forward to it, so am I."

Viddal Riley now offering Briggs t-shirts that say 'you haven't been relevant for five years'. He didn't accept the gesture.

Adam Hamdani7 October 2019 18:53

It's a bit of a Shannon Briggs-Viddal takeover right now as they trade blows:

Viddal: "If you Google Shannon Briggs, my name comes up."

Briggs: "You don't want this"
