British YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI had a massive slip-up while aiming a dig at former opponent Tommy Fury, and fans aren't willing to let him get away with it.

On Tuesday, Misfits boxing hosted the press conference for the upcoming boxing fight between Fury and former British UFC fighter Darren Till.

Popular YouTuber KSI, who is the CEO of Misfits boxing, attended the press conference and spent much of it taking shots at Fury about their fight last year.

But now, a clip of the Brit making an embarrassing slip-up during an interview after the conference has gone viral online, and fans are convinced that KSI will never hear the end of it.

Throughout the press conference KSI, real name Olajide Olatunji, kept referring to himself as Fury's dad because the professional boxer is fighting in an event ran by his organisation.

And when repeating the comments after the conference, KSI made an unfortunate mistake that fans online were quick to tease him about.

Speaking to IFL TV, the YouTuber said "F*** Tommy, yeah he's my dad. I mean, I'm his dad.

"I'm his dad yo, that's the game. Deal with it. Where else is he going to go?

"If he wants to go the boxing route, he's come here (Misfits boxing) because this is where the money is at and where the hype is at.

"So come to daddy and do as you are told."

Reacting to the moment, one fan wrote: "KSI finally admitted he lost to Tommy Fury & that he (Tommy) is his father"

Another added: "That clip is gonna haunt him poor guy."

While one wrote: "Such a s*** promoter. you can tell he was trying so hard to get under Tommy's skin cuz he's salty lmao."

KSI and Fury faced each other in the boxing ring in October last year, with the professional boxer winning the bout by unanimous decision.

Since then, the YouTuber has been outspoken online about how he feels that he was robbed by the judges and was the worthy winner, even launching an official appeal over the decision.

The popular influencer is yet to step into the ring again after the loss but has promised he will fight again in 2025.
