Footage of KSI confronting the judges after his controversial defeat to Tommy Fury has emerged.
Fury extended his professional record to 10-0 on Saturday night, when he won a majority decision following a scrappy six-round bout against KSI, real name Olajide Olatunji.
It was later revealed that the scores had been added up incorrectly, with the undefeated Fury being awarded a unanimous-decision victory.
After last weekend’s bout at the AO Arena in Manchester, a frustrated KSI vowed to appeal the final result.
“It’s a robbery,” he said in his post-fight interview. “How many jabs did he land? You didn’t get hardly any shots off. You weren’t landing! Look at your face, look at your eyes. Look at you… I’m the YouTuber, you’re the boxer, you have to win. I understand. It’s all good.”
He added: “[I won rounds] 1, 2, 3 and a point off. How do I lose a six rounder? Unreal. He’s the man that’s meant to be a pro boxer and he won a majority decision. It’s outrageous.”
Shortly after the result was announced, KSI approached the three judges, including Rafael Ramos, who initially scored the fight 57-57, and appeared furious with the decision.
Logan Paul’s manager was also involved in the post-fight incident, according to X user @IfnBoxing, who described the below scenes as a “heated altercation”.
Earlier this week, Tommy Fury dismissed KSI’s suggestion that the result was a robbery.
“At the end of the day, he can say what he wants, but hugging and doing star jumps in the ring does not win a fight,” Fury said on Good Morning Britain.
“He can go on about how he was robbed, but it was his show [a Misfits event], his officials, his judges. So, are you saying that your own people, that you employed, robbed you?
It’s very hard to fight someone who doesn’t want to fight. I don’t know [about the chance of a rematch], we’re gonna see. But that was a horrible fight to be a part of. He didn’t wanna fight, he didn’t want to stand there and give the fans a good fight.
“He just wanted to make it awkward, look horrible and run around the ring for six rounds. It’s very irritating for someone like me, who wanted to get in there and have a proper fight.”
