Top 10 Performers from the KSI vs Logan Paul Card
The Logan Paul vs KSI event has just finished. It was a great event with many great fights, but who performed the best? Find out in my list :)Again, these are just my opinions and I am being as unbias as I can be. Feel free to leave your opinions on how these fighters performed down below.
Obviously. Deji surprised all of us by lasting until round 5 with Jake Paul. He did eventually lose the fight after his corner threw in the towel, but he is the star from tonight.
After going to a draw with Logan Paul, KSI keeps the YouTube Boxing Championship. In my opinion, he barely beat Logan Paul, and that is why he is all the way up here. He came back from losing the first two rounds to, in my opinion, winning the fight. It was called a majority draw after two of the three judges called it 57-57 (the other judge called it 58-57 in KSI's favor).
Those dirty liver shots. Sensei put Overtflow on the ground with all those shots to the liver. Maybe he is due a title fight, although I don't think Jake Paul or JJ could handle him.
Taking home a victory from, in my opinion, the absolute Fight of the Night against Jay Swingler, you have to see this fight. After the fight, the "Beast from the East" calls out Joe Weller for a fight at the next boxing event. Weller, who was on commentary, gets in Gib's face, clearly hyped, and says it's on. I can't wait for that one.
Going to a draw with KSI, Logan surprised quite a few of us. I was genuinely concerned for JJ during the first two rounds as Logan was genuinely dominating him. He earned JJ's respect, and JJ earned his. I can't wait for this rematch.
Jay surprised us all. Gib was dominating him for the first two rounds, but at the end of round 2, he showed some fire. He fought through the pain and proved that Gib wasn't going to get an easy win. Whenever it looked like Jay was going to get knocked out, he came back and completely turned the tables. Eventually he lost, but take nothing away from him. He earned Gib's respect and all of ours.
Personally, I think he and Deji should have a scrap at the next event.
Michael from RackaRacka absolutely destroyed Scarce, and the fight had to be called off after about 30 seconds into the third round. No disrespect to Scarce. Michael was just too good.
Didn't get that Round 1 KO that he was constantly predicting, but he got the job done and got a title around his waist (although he was constantly wearing it over his shoulder like a seatbelt). You can't take anything away from Jake Paul. He earned my respect, Deji's respect, and the respect of pretty much everyone in that building.
Afterwards, he called out Chris Brown, who was apparently meant to fight Soulja Boy. I don't know why he got a belt, but Jake said after the fight that he "loves this sport," so I'm excited to see where his boxing journey goes.
His first round was a little shaky, but in rounds two and three he showed Coach Richard who's boss. Knocking his opponent down twice, JMX proved that he should be taken seriously after dominating a double European Gold Medalist.
Probably the biggest upset of the night was Momo beating Rossi. It was probably the worst fight, but Momo just took the piss the whole time, doing Fortnite dances and constantly taunting Rossi. Personally, I would have given the win to Rossi, but Momo performed well after only seven days of training.
