This weekend KSI will be back on British television, appearing on Michael McIntyre’s Gigantic Show alongside Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Shane Richie, Angela Scanlon and Myles Smith. The 32-year-old rose to fame in the early 2010s thanks to his gaming videos and Sidemen channel, racking up hundreds of millions of views on YouTube. The creator-turned-mainstream artist has ventured into music, boxing and business over the years, earning a tidy sum from his exploits.

KSI is the co-founder of Misfits Boxing and co-owner of several successful brands including Prime Hydration and Lunchly. With a career dating back to his teenage years, the successful influencer has appeared on TV shows such as Britain’s Got Talent and the documentary series All or Nothing: Arsenal on Amazon. Express Sport delves into the world of KSI, examining his enormous wealth and private love life…

KSI’s real name is Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji. He uses the pseudonym KSI, which is an abbreviation of knowledge, strength and honesty. The 32-year-old also has this motto tattooed on his chest.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, KSI’s net worth is approximately £75 million ($100 million). This makes him one of the highest-paid internet personalities in the world and has landed him on numerous affluent lists, including Forbes’ 30 Under 30.

In 2019, the Sunday Times recognized KSI as one of the most influential internet creators in the UK.

For the past eight years, KSI has maintained a secret relationship with her non-celebrity partner, trying to keep it as private as possible. JJ revealed that his girlfriend is “not in the industry” and works regularly every day.

On YouTube’s Now You Know, KSI reveals that he keeps his partner “away from the spotlight” by refraining from posting photos on social media. He shared: “She grounds me. She definitely tells me sometimes if I’m doing too much; If I need to relax and rest.

“But it’s good. I can talk to her about anything. And yes, we’ve had ups and downs, like any relationship. We have a really infirmed vigorous because she doesn’t want to be the center of attention, she doesn’t want to be known, she doesn’t want to be eminent or anything.

“She just wants to do her 9-to-5 job and just lend a hand people. I think that’s just infirmed. It’s not part of the industry that I work in, so we can come back together when we’re both done working and then we can just talk about our lives and relax and it’s just nice. I can just, I can just relax with her and say it’s not work or it’s not tough, it’s just super effortless.”

KSI confessed that at one point the couple broke up, but he “begged” them to get back together. He added: “You know, when my girlfriend and I broke up, I thought, ‘I just want to be myself. I want to do whatever.'”

“But then it got to the point where I thought, ‘Oh, why did this relationship fail?’ She was so good to me and everything was like… I just screwed up and I thought I needed to work on myself.

“And then I went to a therapist… to really take a closer look at myself and understand what I wanted, what made me content, what I wanted, etc. And then I thought about her, about her thoughts, about what she needed and everything. I got to the point where I was like, ‘I need her in my life.’

“So, you know, I basically begged her to be with me, and, you know, it took a while, but eventually, you know, we got back together. And it was literally just amazing. But it’s a roller coaster.”

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.

Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.

Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.

Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.

Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.

The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.

The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.

McKean meets Taliva

Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.

McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.

Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.

Undercard remaining

At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.

Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.

Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.

Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
