KSI defeats Fournier by a controversial knockout

If the YouTube project “made sense” to his colleagues, so did his next step, when he released his first rap in 2015. “I remember he wrote a rap to learn all the elements on the periodic table and all the teachers were very happy. I was impressed,” he adds. classmate, but it was singing about supercars after leaving school that showed how much KSI’s life had changed. His debut single “Lamborghini” featuring P Money peaked at number 30 in the UK chart. It has since been followed by several EPs and two studio albums.

KSI’s next venture was unpredictable however.

“He was so sweet that no one would say, ‘Oh, he’s going to fight when he’s old,'” says a classmate. “When he did, it was like, ‘Oh, gosh. Well, I think he can, so who’s going to stop him?'”

Jake Paul said his opponent KSI was expected to lose the victory after accidentally elbowing Joe Fournier.

YouTube star KSI knocked out former professional boxer Fournier in the second round of the fight at London’s Wembley Arena after elbowing him as he attempted a right hook.

KSI, who landed the hardest punch during the first round, denied stopping Fournier with his elbow in the post-fight interview, but replays showed that contact was made.

Responding to a clip of the fight on social media, Paul said he “didn’t respect” the way the fight ended and demanded that KSI be stopped, or the controversial result be declared a no.

“I have a lot of respect for boxing to respect what it was”, Paul he tweeted. “If this was a real boxing match, it wouldn’t be considered a no contest or a disqualification.”

JJ’s personality was tailor-made for YouTube, where he launched his channel ‘KSIOlajideBT’ in 2009 – four years after the platform started. Fifteen at the time, JJ quickly built a following by filming himself playing FIFA – the popular football video game – at his parents’ home in Watford. Her charming laugh was a key feature in every upload. “He always had that special laugh,” recalls a classmate. “I remember this. He would laugh at something during registration in the morning and the teachers would say, ‘JJ, please!'”

By the end of 2009, Olajide Olatunji had amassed 1,000 subscribers. That number tripled by the end of 2010, and Olatunji’s growth accelerated dramatically in 2011, when it reached 150,000 users, and in 2012, when it crossed the one million mark. JJ was KSI – meaning ‘The Power of Righteous Knowledge’ – and would soon become Britain’s most popular YouTuber.

“When he started appearing on YouTube, no one was surprised,” says the school student, “but you’d hear from people who knew him, ‘Wow, he’s definitely proud of himself now. He’s not sweet anymore, there’s a swagger there, he talks a lot about himself. He was more engaged when he was talking to people.’”

Before KSI, there was Olajide Olatunji – “JJ” for short. Before the YouTuber, dancer, rapper, boxer, promoter and energy drink guru, there was a friendship class clown in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire.

“I remember we made the movie Sweeney Todd,” says one of his classmates. Independence. “He played a judge, and when he died at the end, he was crawling with worms on the stage. Everyone was in stitches. He was funny, a good guy – everyone loved him for that. He was popular, but not like, ‘I’m the shit’; he was confident but he is also a silly, beautiful, sweet person.
