In a difficult opener, the Mancunian took a brutal right hand, which sent him staggering across the ring, and that wasn’t the end of his troubles. After landing a shot to the back of the head, the Love Islander lost a point, leaving him with a massive mountain to climb.
But in a testament to his heart and will to win, he battled his way back into the contest, sweeping the last four rounds to clinch victory from the jaws of defeat.
And despite KSI’s cries of robberies, the reality TV icon is ready for new challenge in the form of MMA’s biggest draw.
Tommy Fury wants a fight with Conor McGregor
While Conor McGregor is preparing for a UFC comeback, the prospect of a huge money fight with Fury will undeniably tickle his interest.
Ultimately, while weight and pure-boxing experience favour the Brit, the Dubliner will inevitably feel like he has the power to upset the applecart. And Fury is all too willing to give him the opportunity.
In an interview with Fight Hub TV, he said: “I would love to share the ring with Conor McGregor. And if Conor Mcgregor wants it next, I will 100 per cent share the ring with him.
“I am a fan of Conor McGregor, I like him, he’s a good man, he got me into UFC.
“If he wants to share the ring, my hand’s there, the offer’s there, I’ll have Conor next.”
Therefore, much to the anger of KSI, he could end up outside in the cold. Whether influencer boxing fans like it or not, Fury has infiltrated their world like a parasite.
Having now picked up victories over the two highest-profile stars on the scene, the world is truly his oyster. However, with a desire to still win world titles, Fury’s days in the crossover world could be numbered. Therefore, if KSI wants a rematch, he’ll have to act quick.
