TOO LATE NOW TO SAY SORRY

KSI can’t wait to beat Logan Paul – so he can make Justin Bieber eat his words

KSI CANNOT wait to ram Justin Bieber’s support for Logan Paul down his throat on Saturday night.

The pop sensation will be at ringside to cheer on his fellow American celebrity at the Los Angeles Staples Center.

Bieber, who has told his 24-year-old pal to rip the braided head off KSI’s shoulders, has backed his man to land an early stoppage win on his pro debut.

But Brit KSI, real name Olajide Olayinka Williams, believes he will be leaving the US with a win and egg all over the 25-year-old’s famous baby face.

The Watford YouTube star, 26, said: “I am too focused on the fight to see how big it is.

“I know Bieber is talking about it but I am just in my hotel watching fights and boxers.

“A lot of people try to tell me that I cannot do some things and then I always manage to do them.

“A lot of people think I am going to lose this fight and they are going to be surprised when I get my hand raised and am smiling at everyone - especially Justin Bieber.

“He is coming to the fight but I don’t care or pay attention to that stuff. I am not focused on the extra stuff, that will come after.”

Paul has got the singer a VIP seat next to his mum and dad but he has warned his family not to pester the A-list celeb for photographs.

The ripped 199lbs cruiserweight said: "I'm gonna place him next to my mother and father.

"And if anyone in my family and friends section asks Bieber for a picture, I am kicking them the f*** out.

"Just leave the kid alone. I just want to promise him sanctity and safety and entertainment."

KSI and Paul have both insisted their controversial pro bows will not be one-offs and have both vowed to fight on beyond the weekend.

The Englishman is understandably interested in padding his record against journeyman and building his own boxing brand.

And he has slammed Paul’s fanciful plan to become heavyweight world champion inside five years.

KSI believes a far more likely scenario is Paul will target an MMA bout with WWE legend and 0-2 UFC flop CM Punk.

The FIFA-playing social media mega-star said: “I will not be trying MMA, Logan can call out Dana White for a fight in the UFC after I beat him.

“He will want to fight CM Punk and people will watch that, even I am intrigued to see what would happen.”
