Jake Paul and KSI really do not like each other.

Jake Paul and KSI have been in a longstanding feud. Overall, both of these men are YouTube stars who have entered the boxing world. KSI has fought twice against Logan Paul, with one draw and one victory. Additionally, Paul is a superstar at this point, although he did lose his last fight against Tommy Fury. At this point, there are all sorts of rumblings that they might get to fight each other. Both of these men have been going back and forth on social media over the last few months, however, there is still no fight in sight.

Recently, KSI found himself at the center of a controversy. While appearing in a Sidemen video on YouTube, KSI ended up using a racial slur that is used against South Asian people. Subsequently, KSI took to social media where he apologized for what went down. Despite the apology, Jake Paul jumped on the opportunity to kick KSI while he was down. In the tweet down below, you can see that Paul went off on the YouTuber. He urged his rival to be better and to start thinking about charities he can donate to.

Jake Paul Speaks

"Fake guy with fake apologies every other week," Paul wrote. "I hope you take this more serious than taking a break off social media so you can focus on training and then reappearing two weeks before your fight saying you’re a new man. Meet with British South Asian community leaders, get with the right charities and give back. I made my own mistakes in my early 20s but we are too old for this behavior. I look forward to knocking you the fuck out on behalf of all South Asians around the world. You 30 year old prick."

At this point, Jake Paul is clearly trying to play dirty. Using a rival's controversy to his advantage isn't exactly the definition of "class." However, this is one of the reasons why Paul is able to sell fights. He knows how to build tension, and it is something that promoters love. Let us know whether or not you think these two will ever get in the ring, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news from around the sports world.
