SI vs Joe Fournier LIVE!
KSI headlines Misfits Boxing 007 in a huge main event at London’s Wembley Arena tonight. The YouTube sensation and music star takes the latest steps in his boxing career against Joe Fournier, a professional fighter albeit having retired some years ago. A win would be huge for KSI as he eyes a money-spinning meeting with either Jake Paul or Tommy Fury.
The 29-year-old has not fought since beating FaZe Temperrr in January and headlines a fun-looking card. The increasingly popular Salt Papi meets the outspoken Anthony Taylor on the undercard while KSI’s brother Deji is also in action against rapper Swarmz.
Crossover boxing continues to be a decisive format of the sport but few can deny the interest. Fournier does at least bring something of better pedigree to the event and a win would be a major scalp for KSI. Follow the action LIVE with Standard Sport’s fight blog!

Prediction: KSI to win via KO
Fournier certainly has the backing of Haye and boasts much more in the way of serious pedigree than KSI’s previous opponents.
Still, KSI has more experience on big fight nights and holds key advantages in terms of both speed and power.
KSI to win via early KO.
