In contrast to the prior press conferences, this event actually ended with both parties consistently answering the questions asked of them with minimal distraction. 
  
  Notable moments:
  • 0:10: Both fighters open with training montages.
    • KSI's section focuses on Paul's ego.
    • Paul's section focuses on "giv[ing] the fans a show" and athletic prowess.
  • 0:54: "I thought I'd save you" -KSI to Paul
    • Again, showing that this is meant as a redeeming journey for Paul.
    • Paul does not immediately acknowledge this.
  • 1:20: Paul notes his "athletic background" here, differentiating himself from "a YouTuber."
    • Also goes on to claim that in the hypothetical future where Logan Paul and Jake Paul both beat KSI in a match, KSI's "career will be over."
  • 2:16: For the second time, Paul asserts that KSI does not know what he's getting into by boxing Paul.
  • 2:28: The two discuss KSI's "clout" rising due to the fight, with the implication that this fight is largely beneficial to KSI's own microcelebrity status.
  • 3:22: Paul notes that the two had no history of disagreements until "things got a little too personal." 
    • It is unclear whether this refers to the Aokigahara incident or the comments about Chloe Bennet.
  • 3:47: KSI makes it clear that his end goal is to become a professional boxer.
  • 4:40: Paul compares himself to "an animal" while KSI compares himself to "a god."
  • 5:00: Paul openly acknowledges that KSI is playing the role of "The Nightmare" well.
    • KSI is implicit in the sinister post-colonial portrayal?
  • 5:32: Training backgrounds addressed, Paul refers to self as a "corn-fed Ohio boy."
    • The American fighter!
  • 7:01: Nelson picks out that neither of the two respect the other's credentials, though this especially true for Paul.
  • 9:15: The trash talk begins going off the rails again, with both fighters speaking over each other.
  • 10:12: Paul again expresses that he is "kind of done with the talk, and the bullshit."
    • Our hero is chomping at the bit to actually go out and fight.
  • 10:45: Paul shows himself to be fighting not based on emotion, but on tactics. 
    • This reinforces the narrative of an intelligent boxer he has propagated.
    • In turn, KSI quotes the classic adage that "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face", marking him as more of a brawler and reinforcing his Otherness.
  • 11:22: Paul distinguishes the difference between "YouTube game" and "big boys game" in the ring.
    • Possibly infantilizing KSI's confidence.
  • 13:01: Logan paints KSI's confidence as ignorance once again.
  • 14:50: Paul continues his recurring joke that KSI's bandanna never seems to come off.
    • Paul has problematically mocked KSI's forehead in the past.
  • 16:13: Paul refuses to shake KSI's hand before leaving.
