Tommy Fury has ripped into KSI amid calls for the pair to collide next, insisting the YouTube star ‘can’t fight’.
Fury, the younger brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson, is already weighing up his future plans despite being scheduled to face Paul Bamba in Dubai later this month.
The 23-year-old has a number of options on the table, with bitter rival Jake Paul considering rearranging their proposed grudge match for a third time after the former withdrew on two previous occasions.

But another potential opponent for him is KSI, who reignited his fledgling boxing career in a double-header at the O2 Arena back in August.
Now the online personality is making a beeline for Fury, saying after his recent pair of victories: ‘Tommy Fury – I want a piece of that. I’ve warmed up and I’m ready, I’m excited. Nothing can harm me. I’m different.’
However, Fury clearly does not see KSI as much of a threat, joking that his own mother could knock him out in a round while even admitting that Paul is a better fighter.
‘Jake Paul is better than KSI,’ he told MMA Fighting.
‘I think my mother could knock KSI out in a round. He can’t fight.’

Fury has picked up eight straight wins in his professional career thus far, most recently getting the better of Daniel Bocianski on the undercard of his brother’s knockout victory over Dillian Whyte at Wembley Stadium back in April.
The one criticism aimed at him frequently has been the standard of opponents he has mixed with early on, with Bocianski only fighting once in three years prior to their contest.
Though in his next outing, Fury claims he would be prepared to make his biggest statement yet by fighting KSI and Paul on the same night.
He recently told SecondsOut: ‘I’ve said all along I’d fight the both of them on the same night.
He even claims bitter rival Jake Paul is the more talented of the two online personalities

‘Like KSI done with the two people the other day, the rapper and whatever that was, I will do the same with Jake Paul and him on the same night.
‘When they finally get in the ring with me, I cannot wait to show everybody that what I was saying all along is true, it isn’t a fight for me.
‘If you’re going to ask me to fight a YouTuber, KSI, who plays FIFA on the internet for a living and Jake Paul who does whatever he does, sign me up, not a problem.
‘He’s very lucky that them fights haven’t come off yet. I don’t know what the other one KSI is mentioning my name for because he’s even worse than Jake Paul, so I don’t really know what’s going on.
‘Two fools that need shutting up, so let me tend to my actual business first against actual fighting men and then I will happily get them out of boxing.’
