Logan Paul and KSI provided social media with all the smoke they could handle in a retrofit to YouTube subscriber supremacy and praise rights.
But when the finals beat up to Michael Buffer read the magistrate, by split ruling (55-56, 57-54, 56-55) KSI was declared to win. On Saturday night, a moment after he broke the Internet and closed rivalry, the British fighter raised his hand with great eagerness an the Staples Centre in Los Angeles.
While KSI was the aggressor, operating on inside and shooting Paul twice, the British fighter did in the fourth round gain from a2-point deduction from Paul. As Paul landed a wide uppercut, the wild sequence began, sending KSI to the canvas. The ref ruled, however, that behind the head it was a kick and a drive that KSI tasted the mat.
If anything, the rule gave some luck, as in the third round, KSI dropped Paul overhand, but wrongly ruled it behind his back. The DAZN instant replay revealed the punch just behind Paul's ear and a formal knockdown was supposed to take place.
Still as Paul reaffirmed his jab in the fifth round of the competition, KSI succeeded in holding together his wobbling legs to end the match as the aggressor in the sixth to make a success.
"I was scared to fight," said KSI last summer, having ended up in a majority draw after his original fight with Paul.
"This time, I just went in," he said in what was their pro debut about his gutsy performance. "I kept going and kept going."
Surely he did. Paul made it clear that he found a two-point deduction to be the cause of his defeat, which could be determined by the State Commission.
But afterwards, both YouTuber rivals squashed their beef with dignity.
