Manchester, UK - Coming off his first defeat in crossover boxing, Salt Papi suffered another big setback as he was stopped in four rounds by unbeaten Slim Albaher, who is trained by world-class coach Andre Rozier.
Youtuber turned boxer, KSI, believes Salt Papi made some big mistakes in his most recent ring outing - which led to a decision loss to Anthony Taylor. During last month's Misfits Boxing 7, Taylor outboxed Salt Papi over three rounds to win a decision.
MF & DAZN: X Series 007 at the OVO Arena Wembley - In a catch-weight bout of 180-pounds, Youtuber turned boxer, KSI (6-0-1, 5 KOs in exhibitions), crushed Joe Fournier (9-0, 9 KOs as a pro against ultra-limited opposition) in two rounds.
Salt Papi is prepared to carry the mantle for YouTube boxers. The lovable Filipino southpaw went straight into preparation mode in the immediate wake of fellow content creator Jake Paul’s split decision defeat to England’s Tommy Fury this past Sunday in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia. Paul (6-1, 4KOs) answered the call to face an experienced boxer for the first time in his three-year career after having faced an assortment of athletes from other mediums.
Elle Brooke entered Friday’s weigh-in with a chicken sandwich and beverage prior to stepping on the scale.
