British YouTuber-tuned boxer and rapper KSI has vowed to expose Jake Paul as a "fraud" and knock him out in an upcoming boxing match.

Speaking on TheMMAHour with Ariel Helwani, KSI revealed that he was angered by Paul's consecutive wins and claims of being the best in the sport. Despite being focused on music at the time, the Brit wants to return to boxing to take on his rival. He stated that he intends to defeat Paul and then return to his other business ventures.

Appearing in the interview, 'The Nightmare' said:

"Jake would destroy KSI blah, blah, blah and it was just bubbling inside of me and every time I would see Jake win a fight, it angered me. Because I'm there like, he's not that good. He's not as good as everyone things he is. For me personally, I think he is a fraud and I'm like I'm the guy to expose him."

He continued:

"But it's like, at that time I just had to focus on music, you know, while this is all going on. And then I was like, you know what, screw it, I'm gonna come back into boxing, I'm gonna slow down the music, just come through, destroy Jake. And even though I'm doing everything else- sidemen, youtube, music here and there, PRIME... all my other business ventures. I'm soon gonna come in boxing, knock him out and then go back to doing what I was doing before."

When asked about his motivation for the fight, the boxer revealed that it was all about "legacy".
