KSI, ex-Premier League star Wayne Bridge to fight in exhibition
YouTuber-turned-boxing star KSI confirmed on Saturday he will face former Manchester City footballer Wayne Bridge in a boxing exhibition.
KSI, who is CEO of Misfits Boxing, faced off with Bridge in the ring during the Darren Till-Anthony Taylor card. The fight is scheduled to take place on March 29.
Bridge made 466 appearanced in a 16-year professional career that saw him play for a number of English clubs including City, Chelsea and Southampton before retiring in 2014. He also won 36 caps with England.
Bridge has limited experience in the ring, with his only fight coming in a charity bout against Made in Chelsea star Spencer Matthews in 2018, which he won via unanimous decision.
By comparison, KSI has won five of his six fights, the most recent being a unanimous-decision defeat to Tommy Fury in October 2023.
