KSI next fight: Date and opponent

KSI, YouTube star and CEO of Misfits, has publicly expressed his intention to return to the boxing ring in 2025.

One of the pioneers of crossover boxing, taking on American social media supremo Logan Paul in two money-spinning fights on both sides of the Atlantic in 2018 and 2019, KSI is now the face of Misfits Boxing.

The Londoner, who is also known for his rap music, has not fought under the Misfits banner since being handed his first boxing defeat by Tommy Fury in Manchester in October 2023, having had to pull out of a scheduled two-v-one fight against Slim and Anthony Taylor in August due to injury.

With KSI now on the cusp of returning to the squared circle, we take a look at the details of the Brit's next fight.

KSI next fight date

KSI's return to the ring under the Misfits banner will take place on Saturday 29th March 2025.

The venue for his return fight is yet to be confirmed but reports suggest it will take place at Manchester's Co-op Live Arena.

KSI possible next opponents

Wayne Bridge

Former England international footballer Wayne Bridge is the shock opponent in line to face KSI on Misfits on Saturday 29th March in Manchester.

Previously playing as a left-back for clubs including Chelsea and Manchester City, Bridge once boxed reality TV star Spencer Matthews in a charity fight for Sport Relief back in 2018.

The 44-year-old will now make his latest outing in a boxing ring against one of the UK's most famous influencers as the headline event of a Misfits card.

Amir Khan

KSI has also been linked with a fight against former unified light-welterweight world champion Amir Khan.

Negotiations reportedly took place between Khan's team and Misfits to broker a fight against KSI last year but these talks ultimately failed to materialise.

There were growing suggestions that a deal was close to being struck to see the 37-year-old Bolton-born fighter meeting KSI under the Misfits promotion in 2025 but this talk has now died down.

Tommy Fury

As the sole loss on his boxing record, KSI has made his intentions to gain revenge on Tommy Fury publicly clear with a 2025 rematch potentially on the cards.

Mancunian Fury is scheduled to headline the Misfits X Series 20 card on 18th January 2025 against UFC star Darren Till, with a fight against the winner of this bout mooted as a possibility for KSI next year.

Neither Fury or KSI have fought since their original bout at the Manchester Arena in October 2023.

Jake Paul

As far as KSI's boxing career is concerned, all roads lead to Jake Paul.

Ever since he engaged in two fights against Jake's brother Logan in 2018 and 2019, the Brit has been touted for a super fight against 'The Problem Child'.

Negotiations have previously taken place between Jake Paul and KSI's camps but up until now no agreement has been reached for the pair to meet in the ring.

Regardless of where both of their respective careers take them, a fight between KSI and Jake Paul is always likely to garner huge worldwide attention and potentially record-breaking viewing figures.
