Logan Paul vs KSI boxing match – YouTube stars to trade blows in the ring as controversial America accepts challenge

CONTROVERSIAL YouTuber Logan Paul is set to step into the ring against British rival KSI.

The match - expected to net more viewers than Wimbledon and the FA Cup final combined - comes just weeks after millions watched KSI beat Joe Weller at London's Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

KSI - real name Olajide William Olatunji - called out the star over his sick vlog showing the body of a man who committed suicide in Japan's 'suicide forest'.

The attack led to weeks of sniping via their YouTube channels - until KSI finally offered to settle the argument with a boxing match.

Paul posted a video accepting the challenge last night.

He said: "Yes, it looks like I am fighting KSI. "This is going to be the biggest event in YouTube history, possibly the biggest event in history. This is Mayweather vs McGregor.
