Fans have been waiting for a boxing rematch between YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul since their first showdown in the ring last year.
It was deemed – by fans and websites – as the biggest internet event to ever happen.
With Logans controversial personality and KSIs impulsive behaviour, it wasnt a surprise that fans were hyped.
The whole ordeal started after KSI won in a boxing match against British YouTuber Joe Weller.
KSI took his victory to call out Logan which began this entire crazy buzz.
Part two is nearing, but it might be a good idea to learn a little bit more about the amateur boxers and the event itself.
Who is KSI and Logan Paul?
To put it simply, the two are YouTubers.
It may sound strange that YouTubers have decided to turn their careers into promotional boxing matches, and you are completely correct.

Its rather strange.
However, both Logan and KSI have a gargantuan fan base which made the boxing match a huge hit.
If youre still unsure of who Logan is, hes the guy that came under fire in 2018 for filming a dead body in The Suicide Forest in Aokigahara, Japan, before sharing it with his (then) 20 million followers.
KSI, on the other hand, is an English gamer who slowly expanded his FIFA gaming career into a rap career which had him creating music with JME and P Money.
When is the KSI vs Logan Paul Rematch?
It has been confirmed for 9 November this year so get yourselves ready, folks, for the most pretentious beating of the year.
It will be taking place the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
My, how far weve come.
This would align with previous comments the pair have made about the fight, with KSI – real name Olajide JJ Olatunji – previously stating that Logan wanted the match on the West Coast while he wanted it in the East Coast.
Compromise. Right, guys?
Were going to have to hope someone actually wins this time since last year saw a draw in front of 18,000 people.
Logan believes he has already beaten KSI, saying at the press conference: This will be a first round knockout. You dont stand a chance. After November 9, your life will be miserable.
What happened at the press conference?
What do you get when you put to overly confident guys in the same room?

Uh, KSI and Logan Paul come for each others neck with really weird insults.
In short, the conference had the controversial YouTuber starting chants of JJ has no d**k while KSI retaliated with you look like you run with a dildo up your a**e.
Sweet, isnt it?
Over 300,000 people tuned in to the live stream of their press and we, unfortunately, had to listen to the trash talk.
When it was Logans turn to take the mic, he wasnt content to stand at the podium and wanted to roam around, so he ripped the mic stand off the lectern and carried it around with him until someone sorted him out with a wireless microphone.
When it came to insults, however, the live stream viewers were left unimpressed by the quality of barbs being thrown about, with Logan telling KSI he smelt like herpes (we literally dont want to know), to which KSI retaliated that Logans breath stank when he came up close to him.
Lets not even mention the fact that KSI brought up Logans dead dog Kong Da Savage.
