It’s felt like a long time coming, but KSI and Tommy Fury will finally enter the ring together this October. After Fury’s victory over Jake Paul in February, contracts were eventually signed following months of speculation and negotiation that he’d next face KSI - another YouTuber with a relatively good fighting pedigree.
Of course, the Fury family will be keen to end KSI’s unbeaten record, and it’s all set to be one of the more intriguing crossover fights in recent times.
When is KSI vs.Tommy Fury?
The fight itself is a six-round cruiserweight clash which will take place on Saturday, October 14, 2023.
It’ll see Tommy Fury return to his hometown of Manchester for the first time since his debut fight, a win over Jevgenijs Andrejevs back in December 2018. He’s gone on to win a further eight fights since then and will be keen to go for a clean ten at the AO Arena.
The undercard is expected to get underway from 7pm local time, with ring walks expected around 10pm for the KSI vs. Fury fight - this could change depending on the length of the undercard fights.

Both fighters have yet to taste defeat in their short boxing careers so far. We know Fury is of good stock as the half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson, while KSI has fought mainly in exhibition bouts aside from a 2019 win over Logan Paul by a split decision.
Stats-wise, they stack up relatively similarly, with Fury having the bigger reach, while both are keen to make their name in the sport, which could make it an interesting and exciting fight.

Form coming into the fight
Tommy is keen to develop his boxing career and shift away from reality TV Star, picking up a win over Jake Paul in February of this year. It proved a box office success, generating almost $40 million in revenue, and he’ll be looking to headline arenas from now on.
He needs to win to do that, and he’s primarily been doing so by taking fights the distance. His last four fights have been determined by the scorecards, but he’s already been talking about the knockout with KSI.
His opponent has primarily been fighting in an amateur or exhibition capacity, with his last four fights coming in the way of the latter. His last exhibition was deemed a no-contest after an accidental elbow strike, but he has proved his worth in the ring against Logan Paul, where his only professional bout ended in a split-decision victory.
It is worth noting that the British Boxing Board of Control will not sanction this fight and, therefore will also be an exhibition fight and not count as a professional win for either fighter.
