KSI had two fights in August 2022. The first fight was against Swarmz and the second was against Luis Alcaraz Pineda. Both of these fights ended in less than three rounds. This was the first event of Misfits Boxing, which KSI helped create to include YouTubers, entertainers and fighters from other sports. When looking at any fights in the boxing odds, check how many rounds took place. KSI fought Tommy Fury for six rounds but his other fights that night only went for three rounds.
The first Misfits Boxing show at The O2
KSI started the show and fought in the main event. He knocked out Swarmz in the second round. However, his other fight against Luis Alcaraz Pineda ended in the third round. This fight was between a musician (Swarmz) and a professional boxer (Pineda).
This event was created by KSI, his manager Mams Taylor, Kalle and Nisse Sauerland (brothers from Wasserman Boxing). If you have seen KSI fight Logan Paul, you will know that they drew in Manchester in 2018 but in Los Angeles in 2019 KSI won via split decision. The second X Series event took place on Saturday the 15th October 2022 and was held in Utilita Arena. Jay Swingler and Cherdleys had the last fight.
How the Wembley card changed before fight night
The card changed before X Series 004 in January 2023. Dillon Danis was supposed to fight KSI but pulled out. Less than two weeks before the event, FaZe Temperrr stepped in. This fight was still the main event of X Series 004 and took place in Wembley on the 14th January. This fight was six rounds long and KSI knocked out Temperrr in 2:19 of the first round.
Other fighters from the opening show were present in Wembley. Pineda won against BDave in three rounds and Swarmz knocked out Ryan Taylor. However, this time Slim and Salt Papi had their own opponents. Slim knocked out Tom Zanetti and Salt Papi knocked out Josh Brueckner. These two would later fight each other on the Prime Card nine months later.
There were also crossover fights on the Wembley card. Elle Brooke knocked out Faith Ordway in the first round. Three years later Jade Jones (two-time Olympic taekwondo champion) knocked out FederiKita in the second round. This was her second boxing fight. Comparing the two cards shows you how broad the matchmaking is. Fighters from online entertainment, Olympic sports and previous boxing events can be on the card.
If you see a Misfits title listed, this is a belt awarded by Misfits Boxing. Slim won the middleweight title in Manchester. Viddal Riley defended his title in November at Wembley. This was for the European cruiserweight belt. Both events are linked to MF Sports but are separate competitions.
Misfits Boxing rounds and professional records
The number on the posters indicates how long the fight was. Within the X Series fights can be different lengths. The below shows three examples:
- O2 – August 2022 – KSI vs Swarmz and KSI vs Luis Alcaraz Pineda – 3 Rounds
- Prime Card – October 2023 – Slim vs Salt Papi (5 Rounds) and KSI vs Tommy Fury (6 Rounds)
- Manchester – June 2026 – Tommy Fury vs Eddie Hall (6 Rounds – 2 Minutes per round). This was an exhibition fight.
Most men’s world title fights are 12 rounds. However, on Misfits Boxing events the referee will still enforce fouls and can stop the fight. If it goes the full distance then look at the judges scores.
If you want to look up any professionals records, look at what organisation sanctioned the fight. KSI vs Fury was sanctioned by the Professional Boxing Association. This means that it was not licensed by the British Boxing Board of Control. KSI’s fight against Joe Fournier in May 2023 was investigated by the PBA after he accidentally hit him with his forearm/elbow. This meant that KSI’s knockout victory turned into a no contest. Fury vs Hall was reported by BBC Sport as a points victory for Fury. However, because it was an exhibition fight it did not count towards their professional records.
How MF Pro and MF Sports fit in
Returning to The O2 in April 2026, Deontay Wilder vs Derek Chisora was the main event. Wilder won via split decision in round 12. This event started the show schedule for MF Pro. MF Pro is the traditional professional boxing arm of MF Sports. This was formed from the Sauerlands and an investor taking over from Wasserman Boxing in 2026. MF Sports have a stake in Misfits Boxing.
By October crossover was back in action. On the 10th October 2026 KSI announced that he would be returning as Misfits CEO. He said he would be returning as an executive. He also revealed Michael ‘Venom’ Page who had signed to fight multiple times over multiple years. “I feel free, that’s all I can say,” Page told the crowd in the Copper Box. Page had previously won his two professional boxing fights. However, he had a 5-1 record in the UFC. After his UFC contract ended he moved to MF Sports. No opponent was announced that night. On the MF Pro side Viddal Riley will defend his European cruiserweight title against Seydi Coupe at Wembley on 14th November 2026. He trained KSI for his two fights against Logan Paul but will be stepping into the ring himself for a 12-round professional title fight
How the Prime Card was scored
KSI entered the ring with a Lamborghini and Giggs. The fight went the full six rounds. Two judges scored the fight in favour of Tommy Fury (57-56). The third judge scored it a draw (57-57). Reading this result shows that it was a majority decision. Adding up the rounds for the third judge shows that Fury won 57-56. This meant that it was a unanimous decision for Fury. However, there was a point deducted for hitting him on the back of the head. KSI appealed but still won.
The first main event ended in round six. Logan Paul had made it to the final round against Dillon Danis but lost via disqualification after trying to grapple. Jake Paul had previously fought Fury in February in Saudi Arabia and lost via split decision. Jake and Nakisa Bidarian started Most Valuable Promotions. See his schedule in our Jake Paul next fight guide.
The fighters further down the Misfits bill
Deen the Great and Walid Sharks had three different roles in three Misfits events. Deen knocked out Sharks in round three in Texas in November 2022. They then fought from the same corner in July for a tag team fight. By the Prime Card they were fighting each other and Deen won the rematch on all three cards.
The middleweight title fight was 5 rounds. However, it ended in round four with six seconds left. Slim Albaher knocked out Salt Papi. Both fighters had become well known from previous Misfits events. Slim had defeated Ryan Taylor in Sheffield a year prior to winning the belt.
Chase DeMoor had also fought in this event. You may know him from Too Hot to Handle. By Misfits Mania in Dubai in December 2025 he had won the heavyweight belt. Andrew Tate took him the full six rounds but DeMoor won via majority decision. This was a Misfits title.
