In today’s world, content reigns supreme. That couldn’t be more true thanks to YouTube, where people now get paid to stream video games while providing entertaining and sometimes controversial material to gain fans. Several YouTubers have even taken it a step further, using their platform to provide entertainment outside the internet.
On August 27, KSI will be competing in a boxing match against rapper Swarmz. The fight is part of the new MF & DAZN: X Series, which will showcase the biggest global names in entertainment, sports, and lifestyle competing against one another on DAZN. Inside London’s O2 Arena, KSI will continue the trend he helped create of YouTubers fighting on boxing cards.
