KSI will be fighting for the second time in 2023, after earning a first-round KO win over FaZe Temperrr back in January. KSI has faced off with Logan Paul twice in his career, earning a draw and win. Since then he has convincingly finished other social media influencers and has become one of the more popular celebrity boxers. The current MF Cruiserweight champion looks to successfully defend his title.

Fournier is a former professional fighter who momentarily stopped fighting due to an injury. However, he returned to the ring in 2015, starting out in local fights in the Dominican Republic. Overall, he has 9 TKO wins and his latest win was over Colombian reggae artist Reykon. In his latest bout, he suffered a loss by way of unanimous decision to David Haye back in November 2021.
