Influencer boxing star Jake Paul has labelled KSI’s Misfits Boxing promotion a ‘sham’ amid the controversy surrounding his Joe Fournier KO.

Paul took to Twitter to refute the claims made by KSI, where he stated that he hit a clean shot on Fournier for the win and did not intentionally hit his opponent with an elbow.

“Why you lying still? No part of your glove made contact with Joe’s face on that elbow. That was not a hook” the YouTuber turned Boxer tweeted at KSI.

“That was straight up a right elbow to the jawbone. Good form but wrong sport. Your whole promotion is sham. Bad look for the sport of boxing” Paul added.

“Your ‘commission’ PBA should hold itself to a higher standard. I hope England Boxing starts to oversee this product and makes it safer for everyone” he concluded.

Paul is set to take former UFC star Nate Diaz in August as part of his own Most Valuable Promotions company, and that promises to be a massive crossover event.
