KSI praises his brother, says Deji is on a "mission"

Although the match is yet to be officially announced, rumors have been growing stronger. TheBreadBatch, a Twitter account dedicated to boxing, was the first to break the story. According to their sources, the match has been confirmed and is expected to take place in November 2022 at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai.

So far, Deji and his team have not spoken about the bout. Floyd, however, in a recent Instagram live post, mentioned an exhibition match that he will be participating in later this year.

Speaking about the possible fight, KSI said:

"Deji is just a man on a mission. I mean yeah, we'll see if it's true..."

He further continued:

"I need to see him beat the f**k outta Mayweather, or at least survive anyway."

This isn't the first time Floyd Mayweather Jr. will be fighting a social media influencer. In February 2021, the former boxing champion took on American YouTuber Logan Paul. The latter, who is presently contracted to WWE, managed to hold his own during the match.
