FaZe Temperrr is defeated by KSI in the first round. He says he still needs to be tested before he can fight Jake’m *************’

KSI continues to stake his claim as one of the biggest stars in all of influencer boxing.

The YouTube star-turned-fighter made short work of FaZe Temperrr, needing a little more than two minutes to land a knockout blow on the pro gamer on Saturday in the exhibition main event of Misfits Boxing 4 at Wembley Arena in London.

Temperrr had been scheduled for a fight on the card but was moved to the mainline spot in order to replace Dillon Danis.

From the start, KSI went hunting for a knockout, though Temperrr made him work with a few well-timed counters as KSI wildly swarmed. However, it was only a matter of time until KSI landed and the end came when he cracked Temperrr with a 1-2 combination, a left hand bomb proving to be the finishing strike.

The official time of the stoppage was 2:19 of Round 1.

KSI then asked questions about a variety of potential opponents, including Joe Fournier (celebrity boxer), former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Whiteley and Slim Albaher who had competed on the earlier card.

It is not clear who KSI will be fighting next. However, he did mention the importance to fight Paul in the future.

“Yes, I need to be tested,” KSI said. “I need more tests until I reach the final level. The final point: Jake m************ Paul.”

Paul was quick to reply to Paul’s mention via social media.

Fournier, who was present at the event, stepped on to the podium and answered KSI’s question. He proposed a May date for their bout. KSI did not commit to the date, though he replied, “I’m down” and the two later faced off.

KSI won by knockout his third consecutive exhibition boxing bout. This past August, he KO’d two men in one night at The O2 Arena in London.
