Jordan spoke with Seconds Away to discuss how KSI was approached - having a net worth in excess of PS16 billion – and hoped for better.
He stated that it started as a joke between him and my friends. I said, "I'm going to ask him for tuition if he beats me in rock, paper, and scissors as it will be funny."
"I thought the worst thing that could happen was that he said no, and we have a good laugh about it. I never dreamed that he would actually be willing to agree with me!"
"I take everything seriously, except me, so that I can stay calm in these situations.
"He was such a nice man and was really cool about that which also eased my nerves."
KSI is also known for its boxing matches against Logan Paul, a YouTube star.
In 2018, the two faced off in a boxing show that ended in a draw.
One year later, they turned professional and had a rematch that KSI won by split decision.
KSI aims to make a comeback to the fighting scene in 2022 or 2023.
Jordan stated that Jordan and his friends laughed at Jordan's joke at first, but then encouraged each other to make the same bet.
He replied: "They all laughed, and Ethan started encouraging him to say 'do that, do it!' JJ asked me how long I had to pay tuition. I replied that it was two years. So, PS18,000.
"Vikk suggested that we do one year and PS9,000, which was what we decided on at the end. We played rock, paper and scissors. I won, and we just laughed.
"I was shocked. He followed me on Instagram, and got my details. They took pictures of me and we had a great conversation. I also told them that I studied football coaching & management.
"I received a message from him later saying "enjoy it brother", so I checked my account, and he sent me PS18,000 for both the years.
Jordan was speechless to see the amount in his bank account and wanted to let his family know that there will be less stress when he pays his student fees.

He said, "I was absolutely stunned, I couldn’t believe it. He is a very nice man so I knew he would send it. But I was shocked that he did so quickly.
"It hadn't settled in yet, and I don't think it will ever. I wrote him a thank you message to express my gratitude. I tried to keep my cool, but it was impossible. I called my family and was overcome with emotion. I think he will be invited to my graduation.
