KSI will be facing the toughest task of his boxing career so far tonight as he faces off against Joe Fournier.
The Youtuber and rapper returned to the ring last August, three years on from his two fight series against Logan Paul, and since has beaten professional boxer Luis Pineda and rapper Swarmz in a 'two fights in one night event'. KSI was last in the ring against FaZe Temperrr in January of this year where he made light work of the Brazillian Youtuber.
The 29-year-old star will also be looking to edge closer to a bout with Jake Paul if he can overcome the formidable Fournier, who at 40-years-old is a self-proclaimed 'boxing billionaire' with a professional record of 9-0.
Ahead of the clash, KSI has cut a confident yet vigilant tone insisting he's relishing the test against Fournier. He said: "I think for me with this fight, I felt like I needed to level up. I felt like I really needed to test myself, same with how Jake Paul tested himself against Tommy Fury and failed.
"I want to be the person that succeeds. I know this is going to be a hard fight, my coaches have told me this several times."
