Joey Essex Postpones Boxing Debut as Fight with KSI's Brother Falls Through

Still in Talks with Misfits

Joey Essex, known for his role on "The Only Way is Essex," has had his boxing debut delayed. The TV star was set to appear on Misfits Boxing's "super card" in Qatar with KSI's brother, Deji, as his opponent. However, Deji was recently announced for the November 28 event without an opponent, leaving Essex's boxing debut uncertain.

Future Prospects with Misfits

Despite the setback, talks are ongoing for Essex to step into the ring with Misfits Boxing. Mams Taylor, head of Misfits, expressed confidence in Essex's potential, describing him as a "lovable rogue" and a valuable addition to their roster of fighters from various entertainment realms.

Expectations for the Future

Taylor revealed that Deji's experience level may have been a factor in the fight falling through but remains optimistic about Essex's future with Misfits. He anticipates that Essex will gain some experience before potentially facing off against Deji or other opponents in the ring, building up to significant bouts down the line.
