In fact, the first official press release has already been held. The two YouTuber\u2019s brother\u2019s Deji and Jake Paul will be part of an undercard event, making the whole event an undoubtedly massive event.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"many-records-to-be-broken\">Many Records to Be Broken<\/h2>\n<p>Combined, the YouTuber\u2019s channels boast of approximately <strong>60 million subscribers<\/strong>. This added to all the hype that has been building up around the event over the past few months, the viewership of the event is probably going to shatter the previous live stream viewing records.<\/p>\n<p>KSI and Logan Paul have already faced up to each other in a <a href=\"http:\/\/teneightymagazine.com\/2018\/07\/19\/ksi-and-logan-paul-face-off-at-uk-press-conference\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">previous press conferenc<\/a>e in which KSI was the clear winner \u2013 Logan Paul had to walk out of the press conference after being subjected to a barrage of insults from his opponent. The August 25 boxing match will go down in Manchester and will be streamed live to their followers from all over the world.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"a-pay-per-view-event\">A Pay-Per-View Event<\/h2>\n<p>KSI recently posted the official link to the boxing match stream but fans were not impressed with the move as the link required them to pay an $8 access fee. This sparked controversy mostly because it was unexpected \u2013 the first YouTube boxing match, that KSI also happened to be a part of was free to stream for the millions of viewers who watched it.<\/p>\n<p>Following <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/tvshowbiz\/article-5972103\/Logan-Paul-KSIs-fight-cost-8-watch-YouTube.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">fan outrage<\/a>, KSI took to Twitter to justify the decision citing such factors as the costs of running such a high-profile event. He also pointed out that compared to the case of the first YouTube boxing match, the costs would definitely be much higher hence the fee. Furthermore, <strong>according to KSI, the pay-per-per view fee that is being charged for this particular fight is much lower than what is charged in other events.<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cJust wanted to address those asking why we&#8217;re charging to see the fight.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of the event itself is on another level to last time. Plus, the press conferences, weigh-in and making other content for the new channel, all adds up<\/p>\n<p>We want to make this as big an experience as possible for everyone watching, without cutting corners.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re keeping the pay per view price purposely low compared to other events and looking to give as good value as we can,\u201d KSI\u2019s tweets read.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A month ago, Logan Paul, the famous YouTuber whose career somehow seemed to recover after a suicide forest stunt opened a YouTube vlog with a statement that said: \u201cA lot of people who are not in the YouTube community think this fight is a joke,\u201d he said. \u201cAll jokes aside, this will be the biggest [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":3847,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[24,15,34],"class_list":["post-3843","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events","tag-event","tag-gambling","tag-internet"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.4 -
