JAKE PAUL says KSI is his rival and will never face him in the boxing ring.
KSI, a 29-year-old, returns to the squared circle Saturday for the first since he defeated Logan, Jake's brother in November 2019.
KSI will fight twice Saturday, as he returns the ring to his former self after nearly three years.
Jake Paul criticized KSI for his return, and he used social media to vent.
Amazingly, KSI will fight twice against rapper Swarmz. Then, he will face off against Luis Alcaraz Pineda, a Mexican professional.
Both contests will be three-round affairs, but that hasn't impressed YouTuber-turned-Boxer Paul, who boasts a 5-0 record in the paid ranks.
On Twitter, he blasted: "This cannot be real?" Each "fight" is three rounds. He also gets a 3 hour break between rounds! Hahahahaha.
It's a lot easier than a 6 round fight. KSI & Minions Boxing getting dirty with the fans with this fake s ***. Mislead after mislead."
That sparked a Twitter feud with KSI saying: "Was curious when you were gonna pipe-up. It must have been so depressing to see your ***, not happening.
"You were able to fight a pro boxer 3 years before him. How are you going to talk when you haven't fought two people in one night?
Paul responded, "You are fighting a young Mexican man in a 3-round exhibition." Realize it. There is no such thing as a 3-round pro fight.
KSI responded by insisting that Jake is still fighting in 2022. Jake has been inactive since December after his knockout win against Tyron Woodley.
Paul replied later that "What you are (sic) doing, isn't fighting." It's an act of aggression against a young man and a mate that you make music with.
Jake followed up with a tweet saying: "KSI won't fight me." It's obvious, and I'm okay with it.
He is trying to promote his exhibition fights.
KSI quickly responded, saying: "When I see them KO both of their, we'll check if it's not 'fighting.
"Jake, I get it, you're mad rn. You are afraid that my PPVs will sit on all of your past activities over the last 3 years.
Paul, despite not fighting since late last year due to a series of late cancellations has been repeatedly called out with Claressa Shields & Amandu Nunes ready for the challenge of beating him.
