The boxing match between Tommy Fury and KSI over the weekend saw everyone who bought a ticket get an exclusive gift, which ultimately cost the promoters ‘tens of thousands’.
It’s the fight that everyone has been talking about for the last few weeks - controversy is rife and one man by the name of KSI is far from happy.

Despite making millions of pounds from the fight, KSI was seen to be extremely upset after losing to his opponent Tommy Fury, who is now 10-0 after winning by unanimous decision.
On fight night, Fury won by majority decision but it was later corrected so that all judges scored the fight in favour of him, sparking outrage amongst millions of fans.
KSI fans have questioned the decision that was made, stating that KSI won or that the fight was at least a draw.

Logan Paul also beat his opponent Dillon Danis, who got disqualified from the fight for trying to take him down with MMA moves.
Despite KSI’s loss, fans in attendance were happy about at least one thing from the night, where they walked away with exclusive merchandise for free… they really did go all out for this bout!
One fan in attendance - @Unbaer - said on X: “If you’re going to be at the AO arena to watch the Prime Card, you are going to get your own Prime hat and your own Prime T-shirt.
“Things are f**king insane man, the budget is through the roof, I don’t know how they’ve done this!”

He then captioned the video: “Misfits Boxing have spent $20k alone getting merch for every ticket purchaser.”
Someone tells us all of that stuff is going to be on eBay for an extortionate amount in a couple of days…
Despite the co-main events selling out the arena, KSI has called his defeat to Tommy Fury a 'robbery' and has said he is going to 'appeal' the decision.

When asked about his performance after the fight, KSI said: “Robbery, it's a robbery bro. How many jabs did he land?
“And he had a point taken off as well, you weren't landing. Look at your face, look at your eyes. Look at you."
Fury replied: "You're a sore loser. You're a bum. Back to YouTube."
KSI then snapped back in retaliation: “He is the man who is meant to be a pro boxer and he won a majority decision?

“It's outrageous man. The amount of times he hit me in the back of the head. So many times. And the referee only took one point? He kept doing it over and over.
"I'm sorry, it's outrageous. We're going to appeal, I want to appeal. I felt like I won that.”
