KSI boxes Joe Weller

Olajide William Olatunji (KSI) beats Joe Weller in a highly publicized boxing match up via a decisive third-round TKO. While the events that led up to this fight are fairly complex, the important take-away is that KSI came away holding the title for the YouTube Boxing Championship. Following his fight and a statement in support of those suffering from mental illness, KSI chose to call out "Jake Paul, Logan Paul, any of the Pauls, I don't care" along with Rio Ferdinand, the former captain of England's soccer team (26:51).

Notable moments:

1:17: Joe Weller begins his entrance to mixed boos and cheers, played in by house music of his own making.

8:32: Fight begins. KSI and Weller seem to split the first round, but KSI soon takes the advantage.
17:15: It is now clear KSI is dominating the fight. The referee calls for a temporary halt in the action, soon followed by a series of standing eight counts.
19:23: The referee makes a decision that Weller is no longer able to fight; KSI wins by Technical Knock Out (TKO.)
25:20: KSI speaks to Weller during his interview, claiming that the fight should "showcase that anyone suffering from mental illness [is] not alone."
26:51: KSI calls out the Pauls (as detailed above.)
- From the way
