Jake Paul mocks KSI after loss to Tommy Fury

KSI and Tommy Fury squared off in the boxing ring in a poorly executed contest defined by clinching and wild swinging. Fury, so composed in his win over Jake Paul earlier this year, seemed to want to match the unorthodox style of KSI but found himself confused as to how to tackle the fight.

A points deduction in the second round further put Fury on the back foot only for him to find a bit of momentum in the third round. The fight seemed even throughout with KSI’s corner adamant that he was in front on the cards. When the decision was announced in Fury’s favour, KSI was shocked and labelled the decision a ‘robbery; in his post-match interview causing Fury to brand him a ‘bad loser.

Moments before their encounter Logan Paul and Dillon Danis’ co-main event developed into a brawl that forced security to intervene.

Danis, who twice tried to choke out and wrestle Paul to the ground, was issued a disqualification after six rounds in which Paul dominated from start to finish. Months of bad blood between the two men came to a head as Paul remained composed and collected utilising a mix of jabs and heavy hooks to unsettle the former MMA fighter whose main goal was to avoid a knockout.

The scenes at the end of the fight led to Paul branding Danis a ‘coward’ and a joke of a fighter before he left the stage with the British crowd chanting his name.

NichLmao & Alex Wassabi vs Luis Alcaraz Pineda & BDave

Round 4: By my count, NichLmao and Alex Wassabi took the first and third rounds with Pineda and BDave clearly winning the second.

NichLmao connects with a nice straight right to Pineda’s face. Pineda seems a bit more reserved now and tags out after a minute.

BDave and Wassabi go toe-to-toe again for 30 seconds. Pineda get tagged back in but Wasabi stays in the ring. He’s beamed in the head by Pineda who looks confident again.

One minute to go as NichLmao is tagged back in. With 20 seconds to go BDave comes in and lands two heavy right hooks. Is that enough for him to take the round?

Round 3: Pineda and Wassabi come out for the third. They clinch and wrestle with each other. Pineda lands another nice right hook before the fighters tag out.

NichLmao and BDave takeover with BDave using his speed. NichLmao gets the better of the exchanges with a couple of body shots forcing BDave to tap out.

Pineda and NichLmao throw a few jabs at each other before Wassabi is brought back in. Wassabi lands one on Pineda’s chin and he brings BDave back into the ring.

Shot! Wassabi comes over the top and lands a heavy shot on BDave who stays on his feet and responds aggressively. Both fighters tag out and the round ends.

One more to go.

Round 2: Nichlmao and Pineda start off the second round. Pineda lands an overhead right and fancies it. He comes out swinging but gasses himself and tags BDave in.

NichLmao tags in Wassabi at the same time.

BDave is a quick puncher, he rocks Wassabi who wobbles. He’s shaky on his feet but grapples and avoids a knockdown. A solid right hand from Wassabi forces BDave to tap out and the original duos are back in the ring.

NichLmao and Pineda are grappling rather than punching. Pineda calls out Wassabi and the 33-year-old is tagged back in. Pineda lands a big right hook and Wassabi looks in trouble.

The bell goes. Pineda and BDave took that round but this is so frantic it’s hard to tell.

NichLmao & Alex Wassabi vs Luis Alcaraz Pineda & BDave

Round 1: BDave and NichLmao are the two fighters that start off this match. The pair trade blows and wild swings with BDave getting pinned on the chin.

He tags out earlier on and brings Luis Pineda into the ring after just 30 seconds. NichLmao falls behind a couple of jabs before tapping in Alex Wassabi.

Wassabi comes in and immediately grills Pineda in the chin. Pineda goes down!

He spits out the mouthpiece and tags BDave back into the ring. BDave unleashes a flurry of punches and clips Wassabi who hits the canvas! What is going on?

The round ends with NichLmao seeing out the time. Two knockdowns in the first round.

NichLmao & Alex Wassabi vs Luis Alcaraz Pineda & BDave

Alex Wassabi is my new favourite. He’s striding to the ring to a chorus of boos but the guy has a sparkly cape on so he’s obviously confident.

All four fighters are now being issued their instructions. We’re about to get underway...

NichLmao & Alex Wassabi vs Luis Alcaraz Pineda & BDave

NichLmao & Alex Wassabi are the favoured team for tonight’s fight. They make their own ringwalks to muted cheers and celebrations.

It seems the crowd are a bit confused about what’s going to happen when this fight kicks off.

NichLmao & Alex Wassabi vs Luis Alcaraz Pineda & BDave

BDave is the first guy to make the ringwalk and comes out to ‘Sweet Caroline’ which just hasn’t got the right vibe here.

The Lionesses made it their anthem for their victory at the Euros, they own this song now.

NichLmao & Alex Wassabi vs Luis Alcaraz Pineda & BDave

The first fight of the night on the main card is a tag-team one as NichLmao & Alex Wassabi take on Luis Alcaraz Pineda & BDave.

I’ve got to admit, I’ve never seen a tag-team fight before so I’m very intrigued to see how this one goes.

Their are four, three-minute rounds schedule with the Misfits tag-team championship on the line.

Drake has taken to Instagram to confirm a massive bet, having placed $850,000 on Logan Paul to knock out Dillon Danis on Saturday (14 October).

YouTube star Paul, who has ventured into boxing, WWE and business in recent years, is due to box fellow American Danis in Manchester, on the undercard of KSI vs Tommy Fury.

And Canadian rapper Drake, who is known to place sizeable bets on fights (and often to lose those bets), has shared a screenshot of a betting slip for Paul, 28, to knock out Danis, 30, who is best known as a former teammate of UFC icon Conor McGregor.
