Roughly one month after the first press conference, YouTuber True Geordie hosted a second conference for the event. Unsurprisingly, the U.K. audience largely favored the hometown Olatunji family. Due to the unfavorable conditions (among other reasons,) Logan Paul left the event early.
- 12:50: Following the undercard press conferences, Jake Paul arrives on stage.
- After "leading" the crowd through a chant of "Fuck Jake Paul!", Paul thanks them "for coming to the show" and continues taunting them for the rest of the conference.
- This is also where the volume of thrown items increases dramatically.
- 25:43: Following a calamitous interview with Jake Paul and Deji, KSI is called to the stage
- The camera strangely stays focused on a small portion of the audience during this scene.
- KSI does not heed this summons, staying back stage.
- 26:56: Logan Paul is now introduced, arrives on stage.
- Paul appears visibly shaken, looking nervously away from the crowd.
- 27:50: KSI finally goes to the stage with the same blonde wig as before.
- Immediately, KSI yells "Welcome to London, Motherfucker!" It is clear that the Paul brothers are slightly out of their element.
- 30:06: Logan Paul speaks for the first time since arriving on stage, and is immediately cut off by KSI.
- Paul would later claim that the moderator, True Geordie, was biased against him due to a vitriolic response video to the Aokigahara incident, and intentionally did not prevent KSI from interrupting him.
- 32:27: As KSI continues berating Logan Paul and his family, Greg Paul (Logan Paul's father) picks up a microphone and responds with a joke about KSI's mother.
- Strangely, this whole press conference is building Logan Paul as a hated underdog.
- 33:19: After taking abuse for over six straight minutes, Logan Paul stands up, excuses himself, and reminds everyone to tune in on August 25th.
- 12:50: Following the undercard press conferences, Jake Paul arrives on stage.
