Logan Paul has weighed in as the heavier man ahead of his highly anticipated fight against KSI.

The YouTube pair finally come head to head and glove to glove in the ring on Saturday night at the Staples Centre.

It all began when KSI called out both Logan and Jake Paul after his win over Joe Weller in the amateur ranks.

KSI and Logan then had an amateur bout but controversially fought to a majority draw.

They now meet in the professional ranks and headline a card which boasts names such as Billy Joe Saunders and Devin Haney.

After a week of trash talking in fight week, they weighed in at the cruiserweight limit on Friday afternoon.

KSI was more than six pounds lighter, weighing in at 193.2lbs and Paul just inside the limit at 199.4lbs.

“I’m kind of done talking, it’s time to let my fists talks,” Paul said after.
