Joe Fournier reacts to controversial knockout by KSI
Joe Fournier reacts to controversial knockout by KSI
Joe Fournier has accused KSI of cheating in their boxing match on Saturday, after the YouTube star won with a controversial elbow. KSI, 29, dropped Fournier, 40, in the second round, leaving the businessman and former professional boxer unable to beat the referee’s count. However, replays showed that KSI (real name Olajide Olatunji) had actually hit Fournier with an accidental elbow. “He cheated – clear, black and white,” Fournier told Fred Peck. “You’ve all seen the replays, it’s gone viral, it’s all over the world. “He hit me with a clean elbow, and the ref was right there, watched it. Obviously [KSI] owns the promotion; when you’re fighting the promoter on his own show... I’ve never been cheated like that in my life. “I can’t believe... I came on this promotion to teach kids that you’ve got to do the right things, got to be ethical, got to work hard for everything you get – not to cheat and you win. “I saw the punch go past my face, and then he hits me with an elbow. Literally, I felt bone. “Of course you’ve got to run it back; he should be disqualified, that should go down as a loss.” Fournier holds a professional boxing record of 9-0 with nine knockout wins, and he previously lost to David Haye on points in an exhibition fight in 2021. Meanwhile, KSI’s win on Saturday was his fourth straight knockout victory in as many exhibition fights.

James Ward-Prowse confident Southampton can make swift Premier League return
James Ward-Prowse confident Southampton can make swift Premier League return
Captain James Ward-Prowse has “full confidence” Southampton can make a swift return to the Premier League following the pain of relegation. Saints’ fate was sealed by Saturday’s listless 2-0 defeat to Fulham – a club-record 24th league loss in a single season. England midfielder Ward-Prowse has been with Southampton since the age of eight but is already being linked with a summer move away from St Mary’s. The 28-year-old, who insists he is “not thinking too far ahead” regarding his own future, is optimistic Saints will bounce back from surrendering the top-flight status they have held since 2012. “(I’ve) full confidence, I think the club’s been there and done it,” he told Southampton’s website. “The squad that we’ve got now is incredibly young and they’ve got a lot to learn. “They will have learnt a lot from this year and next year I’m sure the club will be doing everything they can to be back in the Premier League.” Southampton were precariously placed for much of a miserable campaign, having continually occupied the bottom three since early November. Second-half goals from Fulham pair Carlos Vinicius and Aleksandar Mitrovic condemned Ruben Selles’ side to the drop with two games to spare. Spaniard Selles was the team’s third manager this term following the sackings of Ralph Hasenhuttl and Nathan Jones. Ward-Prowse concedes warning signs were present for a long time and admits Saints ultimately went down to the Sky Bet Championship with a whimper. “It’s something, in all honesty, we’ve been fearing for a little while,” he said. “Over the last couple of years we’ve not been performing at the level I believe we should be and I think this season’s caught up with us. “There’s a way to lose games, there’s a way to maybe fail in sport and I think the way we’ve done it this year, that’s the disappointing way. “I don’t feel we’ve really gone down with a fight and given everything we can. “I feel for the fans because they don’t deserve to see what we’ve produced this season and that’s the sad thing.” Victory for Fulham was a club-record 15th in a Premier League season to tighten their grip on a top-half spot. Winger Harry Wilson, who was involved in each of the Cottagers’ goals on the south coast, hopes to increase the impressive points haul of 51 going into a home game against Crystal Palace and a trip to Manchester United. “It’s not something I was aware of but it’s something we’ve earned throughout the season,” he said of the record. “We’ve shown that we can win different ways, so to get 15 wins and the record is great. “We’ll definitely enjoy them (the final two games) but we also know there’s a lot to play for and we want to make sure we get two wins.” Substitute Mitrovic returned from his eight-match ban with a bang by heading home seven minutes after replacing fellow goalscorer Vinicius. The Serbia striker was punished for grabbing referee Chris Kavanagh during his side’s 3-1 FA Cup loss at Old Trafford in March. Wilson is already eyeing revenge against United on the final weekend following the heated cup exit in which Mitrovic, Willian and manager Marco Silva were sent off. “We were really good for 70 minutes and we all know what happened,” he said of that game. “We feel like we kind of owe them one in a way because we felt on that day we maybe should have left with something.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Jurgen Klopp ready to revive Liverpool title rivalry with Man City next season On This Day in 2016: Max Verstappen makes Formula One history On this day in 2016: Saracens beat Racing 92 to win European Champions Cup

Who will KSI fight next after last night’s controversial knockout?
Who will KSI fight next after last night’s controversial knockout?
YouTube star KSI beat Joe Fournier with a controversial knockout on Saturday, finishing the former professional boxer with an accidental elbow. KSI, 29, landed the bigger punches throughout the first round of the exhibition bout at London’s Wembley Arena, and he tagged Fournier, 40, with a huge overhand right in Round 2. That was followed by an attempted right hook, with KSI (real name Olajide Olatunji) instead making contact with his elbow. The strike sent Fournier tumbling to the canvas and left him staring up at the ceiling, unable to beat the referee’s count. In a post-fight interview, KSI denied that he had stopped his fellow Briton with his elbow, before calling Tommy Fury into the ring for a face-off, which ended with the pair being separated. KSI’s controversial win was his fourth straight KO victory in as many exhibition bouts. The YouTube star, who rose to fame as a gamer but also raps, previously fought Logan Paul twice, drawing with his fellow YouTuber in an amateur bout and beating him on points in a professional rematch. Meanwhile, Fury – half-brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury – is best known for his time as a contestant on Love Island, but he is also unbeaten as a pro boxer. The 24-year-old outpointed Logan Paul’s brother Jake in February. No fight between KSI and Fury has been scheduled, and for some time KSI has been exchanging words with Jake Paul in hopes of arranging a bout. Jake Paul has gone 6-1 as a pro after stopping KSI’s brother Deji in his amateur debut in 2018. Last time out, in February, 26-year-old Paul suffered his first loss, a points defeat by Fury. The YouTube star is now set to box ex-UFC fighter Nate Diaz in August. Click here to subscribe to The Independent’s Sport YouTube channel for all the latest sports videos.

Jurgen Klopp ready to revive Liverpool title rivalry with Man City next season
Jurgen Klopp ready to revive Liverpool title rivalry with Man City next season
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is confident his side can close the gap to Manchester City next season. Wild inconsistencies in results – beating Manchester United 7-0 and Bournemouth 9-0 but losing to struggling Leeds, their only home defeat of the season – had left the Reds 20 points adrift of the Premier League leaders going into the weekend. It has been more common for the two to push each other all the way to the final day of the season, Liverpool twice coming second by just a point, and despite their most recent troubles Klopp expects normal service to be resumed when the new campaign kicks off in August. “There are two games a season, maybe with cups three, four or five, when you play City, Arsenal and the others,” he said ahead of the trip to struggling Leicester. “There are five million ways to win a football game, you only have to find one. A successful season is you are ready for all the games, that you can win 25-odd games. “If City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle, Tottenham, Man United are all involved in that 25 then it is even better. “But it is about can we create a team who can win the majority of the games? Yes, we can. It was never about what the other teams do. “We didn’t become champions by a point twice and there will be some people who say it was because we didn’t have this player in that moment. “Getting 90-odd points is absolutely insane, pretty special, and no one should take these things for granted. “The top seven get even closer together, it will be more difficult and more competitive. “It doesn’t make it easier but everyone with a good idea has a chance to be part of it. If you are part of the battle up there then you can win it as well.” Liverpool’s current six-match winning run, their best sequence for more than a year, has given a glimpse of the level the side used to – and Klopp believes will again – play at. The Reds boss has spoken regularly in recent weeks about using the end to the campaign as a platform for next season and has been pleased with the way his squad have responded. “We show it in six weeks. I’m happy that this question has come and you don’t ask me, ‘how is it you can play such rubbish football for so long?’,” he added. “I never questioned these boys. Never. Mentality-wise these boys are exceptional but we still couldn’t deliver for long periods of the season consistently good, successful football. “Is that normal for human beings? The period was a bit too long, but yes. “For everyone it is a relief to go again, to be winning again in a convincing way and not (having to) scrap three points. “We have a clear idea of what we want to do and I saw so many good things we could build on. “Nothing for Match of the Day, it won’t show up there, but I saw so many things in these games. “I’m absolutely fine with the reaction now but we all think it was a bit too long until we showed it. “All we can do is go for the last three games and make the best of what we have so far.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live On This Day in 2016: Max Verstappen makes Formula One history On this day in 2016: Saracens beat Racing 92 to win European Champions Cup Rookie Austin Eckroat grabs share of lead as Scottie Scheffler falters
