KSI says he would KO Floyd Mayweather but admits in his prime he would have 'no chance'

KSI is clearly very confident in his boxing ability, as he believes he would knock out Floyd Mayweather.

On a podcast with his YouTube group, The Sidemen, talk turned to Mayweather and KSI made a bold prediction if they were to fight.

“Honestly, I think I'd knock him out," KSI said.

“I honestly think I have a great chance at beating him.

"Mayweather, he's a good fighter, I just think I'll have the timing on him.

With that being said, KSI then tempered the claim, adding: "Obviously in his prime I would have no chance.”

It is not out of the question that KSI and 46-year-old Mayweather may fight one day, as the self proclaimed 'TBE' (The Best Ever) has already fought KSI's younger brother Deji.

The pair clashed last year and Deji was stopped in the sixth round, although he did manage to give Mayweather a black eye in the process.

The boxing legend has also taken on another YouTuber, who happens to be KSI's former rival turned business partner, Logan Paul, and this time it went the distance with no winner announced due to it being an exhibition bout.

Mayweather does not seem to be slowing down in terms of taking exhibition fights so perhaps he will let KSI try and prove that he can knock him out in the near future.
