KSI's Harsh Criticism
KSI, the YouTuber-turned-boxer, has not held back in his criticism of Jake Paul's recent victory over Nate Diaz. In his first fight since his loss to Tommy Fury in February, Paul secured a unanimous decision win against the UFC star in an early morning boxing match on Sunday.
Underwhelming Performance
KSI, a bitter rival of Paul, expressed his disappointment with the American's performance in the Dallas fight. He took to Twitter to say, "That Jake Paul performance was terrible." KSI, whose real name is Olajide Olatunji, believes his own upcoming fight against Fury in October will provide a much more impressive display of boxing.
A Hard-Fought Victory
Despite the criticism, Paul had to dig deep to secure the win against Diaz. He knocked down the MMA legend in the fifth round with a well-executed check hook, but Diaz staged a late surge to put Paul to the test. Nevertheless, Paul felt confident that he had done enough to emerge victorious.
Paul's Post-Fight Comments
Speaking to DAZN in his post-fight interview, Paul said, "I knocked him down, won basically every round. I think he won one round, but he's a warrior. I had him hurt in the first round, he kept on coming." Paul also praised his team, his conditioning, and his ability to go ten rounds in only his eighth fight. He acknowledged Diaz's status as a UFC legend and his own admiration for Diaz during his formative years.
A Chance for Redemption
Paul expressed his desire to give Diaz the opportunity for a rematch in the Professional Fighters League cage, although he has yet to compete in MMA. Whether this rematch will come to fruition remains to be seen, but for now, all eyes are on KSI and his upcoming showdown against Tommy Fury.
