KSI vs Logan Paul 2
The 2019 professional boxing rematch between KSI and Logan Paul at the Staples Center — widely credited as the event that legitimized creator/influencer boxing as a commercial format.
On November 9, 2019, KSI defeated Logan Paul by split decision in a professional boxing match at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, broadcast on DAZN. It was the second match between the two (the first, an amateur fight in Manchester in 2018, ended in a majority draw). The professionalization of the rematch, and its commercial success, is widely credited as launching the modern creator-boxing industry, which has since produced Misfits Boxing (KSI), Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions, and dozens of pay-per-view events headlined by online creators.
