KSI was scheduled to lock horns against English former left-back Wayne Bridge on March 29. However, Bridge has now pulled out of the boxing match. Meanwhile, an ex-UFC star who many believe should face the CEO of Misfits Boxing next has clapped back at a fan amid accusations of him ducking the YouTuber.
After the Englishman's withdrawal from the aforementioned bout, a fan on X urged ex-UFC star Derek Brunson to call up the co-president of Misfits Boxing, Mams Taylor, arrange the KSI bout, and fight the 31-year-old Youtuber next.
Brunson replied to the fan’s wishes and claimed that he "would be too tough" for the 31-year-old.

'The One' also claimed that the CEO and the co-president of Misfits Boxing are aware that he wants to fight the YouTuber but that KSI "wants no part of" him.
Amidst all the tweets, another fan accused Brunson of ducking and claimed that he "is all talk."
'The One' reverted and asked the fan to:
"Ask @MamsTaylor if I’m all talk lol"

Why did KSI’s opponent withdraw from the fight?
KSI was originally scheduled to lock horns against former English footballer Wayne Bridge. However, Bridge reportedly pulled out because of some inappropriate comments the YouTuber made about him.
Bridge thought his opponent "crossed a line” when he made remarks about Bridge’s ex-girlfriend Vanessa Perroncel's alleged affair with former center back John Terry.
Bridge also posted an official statement on Instagram following his withdrawal from the bout, stating:
"I’m sure a lot of you have seen what happened on Saturday night at the Misfits Boxing event. Firstly, I think it’s important that I explain my reason for accepting the fight. I always like to challenge myself...I was fully prepared to train hard and have some fun. Of course, I expected to face some criticism, but I feel like what was said on Saturday crossed a line."
