KSI reacts to Jake Paul's decision to ban PRIME at boxing event against Nate Diaz
The rivalry between KSI and Jake Paul has reached a point where it has spilled over into various aspects of their professional lives.
The latest development in their feud was evident at a recent boxing event where Jake Paul took on Nate Diaz.
PRIME, a sports drink company co-owned by KSI and Jake Paul's brother Logan, found itself caught in the crossfire. In a move that underlines the depth of their animosity, Jake Paul reportedly banned any PRIME products from being present at the event, including denying his brother Logan entry into the ring with any PRIME-branded items.
The 30-year-old, in a segment on his YouTube channel, didn't hold back in expressing his thoughts on Jake Paul's behavior. He criticized Jake's apparent insecurity and his need to assert control over the event.
The Youtuber-turned boxer suggested that Jake Paul's actions were driven by a desire to keep the spotlight on himself and minimize any promotion of PRIME, thereby attempting to overshadow his rivals.
"The fact that DAZN didn't even allow Logan Paul to enter the area with a PRIME bottle or his PRIME chain or anything PRIME... outrageous. Just again, super weird behavior. Why does he [Jake Paul] care soo much? He is so triggered by me. You are insecure about PRIME, and you're insecure about the PRIME card being promoted on your event because you want it to be all about you, you, you."
