KSI shares alternative angle of knockout shot but fans aren't having it

KSI 'knockout' of Joe Fournier has been overturned but the YouTuber is still trying to prove that it was a legal shot.

KSI has attempted to convince people that his knockout of Joe Fournier was legitimate with a new angle of the controversial moment, but fans aren't buying it.

Once again KSI got into the ring at Wembley Arena for his latest fight last Saturday night, taking on businessman Fournier in the main event of the latest Misfits fight.

The Londoner went into the fight with a 3-0 record in professional fights whilst his opponent had a 9-0 record but had lost to friend David Haye in an exhibition fight in 2021.

KSI seemed to have ended the contest in the second round with what looked like a brutal shot after dominating the opening stages.

However replays clearly showed that it wasn't the YouTuber's fist that made the final contact with his opponent's face and instead it was his elbow.

Despite the very obvious evidence for all to see the result stood on the night and KSI went about trying to claim that he'd made contact with his punch.

Finally on Friday the Professional Boxing Association who commissioned the fight decided to overturn the original result, instead making it a no contest.

But clearly the Sidemen star was still not having it and was trying to prove to everyone that it was a legitimate knockout by posting a video of an alternative angle.

Unfortunately for the co-owner of Prime, who made a WrestleMania appearance dressed as his drink, fans were not convinced at all by his protestations.

"From Every Angle ITS AN ILLEGAL ELBOW," exclaimed Fournier.

"You are better than this brother," replied one fan.

Pleading with KSI not to attempt to argue with the decision, another added, "Bro this still doesn’t help your case. It was an elbow unfortunately."

"Bro tried to hide the elbow," laughed a third supporter.

"Here’s the elbow in a different angle*," commented another, trying to correct the caption that KSI had posted the new angle under.

And another argued, "Different angle where you can’t see the elbow as clearly…."
