To add to that, his second opponent and co-headliner of the event will be pro boxer Ivan Nikolov. His original fight against Alex Wassabi was canceled after the latter pulled out of the event due to a concussion. JJ recently announced that he would be fighting British rapper Swarmz instead. However, the main surprise came yesterday, when JJ announced his plans to fight twice in the same event. Regarding his second opponent, he said: ksi@KSII’m fighting 2 people on august 27th. The other opponent is a pro boxer.1112293842I’m fighting 2 people on august 27th. The other opponent is a pro boxer. https://t.co/mdMtsgDFJd KSI to fight pro boxer Ivan Nikolov after rapper Swarmz on August 27 The 29-year-old YouTuber was seen receiving some flak after announcing a musician as a replacement fighter. The news was rather underwhelming, considering the fact that his ultimate goal is to fight fellow YouTuber Jake Paul. Jake, on the other hand, has been fighting athletes and creating bigger headline events. Sharing details on YouTube, he revealed that: "Yes, you heard that right ladies and gentlemen. I, KSI, will be fighting two people on August the 27th. I mean that alone should be enough for you to want to buy the pay-per-view on DAZN." He has also taken a dig at Jake after making the incredible decision. He further added: "Believe it or not, I am fighting a pro-boxer before Jake Paul did. And he had a three year head start!" Jake has since then responded to the announcement by making a reactionary tweet. Jake Paul@jakepaulGeorge Foreman fought 4 people in 1 night and it was an awful showing.
