YouTube boxing star and online celebrity KSI is set to sport the world’s ‘most expensive’ mouthguard when he takes on Tommy Fury this weekend.
KSI, or JJ to some, will face-off against the undefeated Fury at the AO Arena in Manchester on Saturday, bringing to an end months of back and forth between the pair.
Sidemen member KSI has often been known for his flashy purchases, with two examples his purple Lamborghini Aventador and custom-made Beerus chain that was reported to have cost the Brit over $500,000 (£410,000).

This weekend’s bout will be no different it seems, with the 30-year-old set to wear a custom mouthguard designed by SAFEJAWZ that is said to be worth over £40,000. Check out KSI's reaction to seeing it for the first time below.
Having been manufactured in the company’s Walsall-based lab, the protective piece is the latest collaboration between KSI and SAFEJAWZ, after also providing him with mouth guards for his previous wins against Joe Weller and Logan Paul.
Totalling almost four carats, the mouth guard boasts 108 high clarity diamonds.

The design is based on KSI’s ‘Nightmare’ nickname and his latest drink, Prime Hydration Glowberry, a features a striking green Prime logo against a black background.
As expected, JJ was more than impressed as he gave his thoughts to SAFEJAWZ, stating: "This is the most detailed mouth guard I’ve ever seen, it’s just phenomenal. Big up SAFEJAWZ man. Just WOW."
With anticipation continuing to gather momentum, this weekend’s bout is set to get underway shortly after their anticipated ring walks at 22:30 BST, with Prime-partner Paul justt one of the names already confirmed on the under card.
The fight was recently confirmed by BoxRec as a professional bout, meaning KSI will partake in only his second non-exhibition contest, following his debut win over Logan Paul in 2019. Fury is currently undefeated with a record of 9-0-0.
Both fighters are set to put their flawless records on the line as they prepare to go toe-to-toe, with a whole host of star-studded names also expected to be in attendance.
