KSI has carefully detailed how Erling Haaland almost put an end to his upcoming fight against Tommy Fury.

JJ is set to face off against the half-brother of Tyson at the AO Arena in Manchester this weekend, ending months of back and forth between the pair.

Logan Paul, King Kenny, Salt Papi and Astrid Wett are also set to feature on the stacked out undercard, with millions expected to tune in via DAZN.

However, speaking via 'That Peter Crouch Podcast' recently, the YouTuber-turned-boxer explained how Haaland's sheer power almost halted the fight in its tracks.

''So obviously you've got [Erling] Haaland involved now, have you been involved in going to the training ground now or would you just sponsor him,'' asked Crouch.

''Have you seen the clip?'' responded co-host Chris Stark.

''Oh my god. So I was in goal for it and bro, I was shi***** myself. He knows how to hit it, hard!

''It's different, because you know when you're with your mates and they kick the ball. It can be hard but it's not like professional level.

''Haaland was there trying to hit me with a volley, at professional level, while I'm in goal. I said bro, I have a fight in like a month, are you mad, what are you doing! I was just trying to get out of the way!

Luckily for all parties, including fellow friends Calfreezy and Logan Paul, the Norweigan's sheer power didn't cause any injuries though KSI's dignity was hurt by Haaland's brutal comments over the upcoming fight.

With Norway in international action across the weekend, chances are City's goal machine wont be able to attend given the bout is set to take place in the north-west.
