- (Logan) I don't think you realize what you've walked into.
- Oh my gosh. - Oh, no.
- Yes! Yes, yes, yes! - (KSI) Mark my words.
That [bleep] is going down! - I just don't get it.
Why do they wanna fight each other? - (voice-over) This is the moment
you've all been waiting for.
- (commentator) A hell of a fight.

- This is gonna be really intense.

Oh, [bleep]. No headgear? - "No headgear. All action.
November 9. Staples center, LA."
- Staples Center? - The fact that it's gonna be
in the Staples Center... hopefully, I get to go.
- (Logan) Okay, wait. Pause. What the [bleep] is that?
What is your face, dude? - Oh my gosh.
- (Logan) Are you pooping, JJ? Are you pooping your pants?
The rematch! Round two! - I did not know there was a rematch.
I knew about the draw. - (Logan) It is confirmed!
[Bleep], bro! I am so excited. - Why does he have a band-aid
on his face? - (Logan) ...finally get to avenge
this disgusting draw that took place in Manchester.
- (commentator) Draw. - KSI should've won,
but, you know, it's okay. - (Logan) It's gonna be sick.
I've been training... - He does look bigger.
- Yo, he's kind of buff, though, not gonna lie.
- (Logan) We are professional boxers, bro. No headgear.
- He is not a professional boxer. Let's be honest.
- (Logan) We're going down to 10-ounce gloves.
Last year, it was 12 ounce. So yeah, it's gonna be super violent.
Awesome. - Two ounces.
- I feel like this is completely scripted, honestly.
- (Logan) Look, guys, I get it. Last year and the year before that
and the year before that and also the year before that,
I've been pretty controversial. - Yeah, we know.
- (Logan) I've been pretty controversial...
- Yeah, no... - (Logan) Not everyone likes me.
- Oh my gosh. (chuckles) "I've been a pretty
controversial dude." Yeah, I mean, you kind of
did something pretty bad. So "pretty controversial"
is kind of an understatement. - (Logan) Not everyone likes me.
- That's true. - (Logan) Those of you who are not
on my side yet, stay tuned, because here are 12 reasons why...
- I'm not gonna stay tuned. I'm sorry.
- Logan. That's my name, and it's a real name.
Your name is just letters.
♪ (victorious music) ♪ - (guys exclaiming)
- (Logan) I still get along with my brother.
The last time I saw your brother, he was...
- Oh. - (Logan) ...on my podcast.
- (inhales sharply) - (Logan) I'm excited, guys.
This is the biggest thing in my life ever, probably.
- I'm just glad he's kind of turned himself around, though,
you know? It's pretty good. I like that about him.
- (Logan) It's gonna be fun to mop the floor with JJ's face
here in Los Angeles. - Oh, he's talking trash!
- (Logan) I wanna see all you guys there.
And if you can't make it, it's gonna be available to watch
on the DAZN app. JJ, bro, I hope you are...
- What even is DAZN? - (Logan) ...last year when I barely
knew how to box, you couldn't beat me. This year, with actual training...
- The shade! - (Logan) I've been training
this whole past year while you've been doing
your [bleep] SoundCloud rapper... - He's got a lot of confidence.
- (Logan) I'm rolling heads, dude. I'm collecting skulls.
I give you 90 seconds. - He's collecting skulls.
I'm thinking that it's just for publicity.
- (interviewer) So, the fight's been announced today, November 9th,
Staples Center in LA. How are you feeling?
- He's so much more chill than Logan. - (KSI) Excited and relieved.
It's been over a year since our last fight.
- Crazy. Too long. - (KSI) There's a lot of speculation
that the fight just wasn't gonna happen.
- Yeah. I remember that. - (KSI) So, for it to finally
come around, it's very exciting. - He seems confident.
- (interviewer) ...last fight, your motto was, "Can't lose."
What's the motto this time around? - (KSI) Uh, don't draw. (laughs)
- That's a pretty good one. - (KSI) No, no.
There won't be any draws with this. - Okay. We'll see.
There's 100% going to be a knockout. - They're both so cocky.
It's so funny. - (interviewer) So, what's gonna
be different this time around? - (KSI) I think one of the main things
is there's no headguards. And funny story, I actually wanted
there to be no headguards in the last fight.
- I remember that was a thing. - (KSI) Yeah, and now
that it's gonna be a pro fight... - A pro fight.
- I just think it's crazy that YouTubers are going pro
with this. That's amazing. - (interviewer) A question a lot
of people will be wondering is is this just for the money?
- (KSI laughs) - Yeah. (chuckles)
- (interviewer) Is this just for the money?
- (chuckles) Yes! - Ego.
- (KSI) ...think there's safer ways to get...
more money. (laughs) - That's true.
- (KSI) But that-- no, no. - If someone was gonna tell the truth,
KSI would. - (KSI) I'd just go in that ring
and do [bleep] all and get dropped,
because I'm getting paid anyway. But-- - That's true. Pay for
the medical bills. (chuckles) - (KSI) ...sure that I show people
that I can become a pro boxer. - Yo, if he becomes
a professional boxer, though, that would be kind of badass.
- (interviewer) This is like step one on the road
to a professional career? - (KSI) Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- See? Exactly. See, that's what he wants to do.
- (interviewer) ...step one on the road to
a professional career? - (KSI) Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Oh. I did not know that KSI wanted to do that as his career.
- (interviewer) So, the fight this time is in Los Angeles.
- Yeah. - (interviewer) ...your fans
to travel across the Atlantic... - I only have to travel an hour.
- I'm gonna be there! I'm gonna watch this [bleep]!
- (KSI) It's gonna be the biggest, if not one of the biggest fights ever.
(laughs) - He's not wrong.
- (KSI) ...one of the biggest fights ever. (laughs)
- That's a hard claim. - (interviewer) Do you have any
closing words for Logan? 'Cause I'm sure he'll be watching.
- (KSI) Well, Logan...
I don't bleed. (laughs)
- Huh? - (KSI) I don't bleed.
- What? - (KSI) I can't wait to sink
my gloves into your face repeatedly. - When they're arguing
against each other, it's to attract people
to be like, "Oh, the beef! Ah!" So then, more people watch videos.
Then they get more subscribers, then more fame, and then more money.
- (KSI) ...breaking your bones in your face, making you quit...
- Oh my god! - (KSI) Either way,
you're not winning that fight. Mark my words.
- Why does it sound so much nicer when KSI says it
than when Logan says it even though what he's saying
is a lot more gruesome than Logan? - I'm sure this time
someone will call a winner, because last time,
they were so pissed off about the draw.
There's no way they're gonna do that again.
But I'm 100% certain that it was all a ploy.
They did that on purpose. They were gonna call it a draw
no matter what. - (FBE) So, those were both videos
recently uploaded last week by the YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul,
who just announced their upcoming rematch boxing fight.
- I did not see this coming. - It's not really a surprise
that they're doing another one. It was a tie, so it was like,
obviously, they have to settle it. - (FBE) Last year, the two fought
in Manchester, England. And there was a lot of hype
for this fight with some reports saying that the fight
potentially earned tens of millions of dollars.
- Oh my gosh. I need to fight someone on Teens React. (laughs)
- (FBE) So, could you talk about the hype from
the first time around compared to the hype now?
- So, the first time around, before it happened,
they were making so many videos. They had promotional videos,
several of them. They made specific trash-talking videos at each other.
This was right around the time where Logan also was just
being extra problematic I think, so everyone was extra, like,
"[Bleep] Logan Paul. We wanna see KSI beat him up."
Now, the only-- I don't even know how I heard about this,
but no one's talking about it. It's definitely not as popular,
because people don't have faith anymore.
They're like, "You guys kind of screwed us over the first time
by not calling a winner." - I feel like the hype is smaller,
but not too significantly smaller. When it happens, I bet it'll be crazy.
It's in November, right? We still got time.
- Last year, there was a lot more time to be excited.
And he just got over winning a fight,
so calling him out was the next thing to do.
It's been a year, so I don't know if it's gonna
be as hyped. - I honestly haven't heard
too much about this fight till recently.
And when they both had beef the first time,
it was definitely more heard of. I heard of it, like--
I was on Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter. It's just everywhere.
- It was huge the first time around. You had these two YouTubers
battling in an arena. That's not what they do.
Now, with this one, it's like, something was left unfinished.
And it's like, ooh! It's like, they're back!
It doesn't have to be marketed as hard this time,
because you already have a fan base who's like, "I'm there!"
- (FBE) So, one of the big differences comparing this fight to last year's
is that now, according to the promo videos you saw,
they have gone pro. - Yeah. "Pro"?
I heard that, and I was like, "Wait. What?"
For them to not wear headgear, first of all, one of y'all is
gonna come out BAD. Someone is going to be
taken to the hospital. - By them going pro,
it raises the stakes a lot, because it's gonna be a lot bloodier.
Knowing a lot of people, that's gonna be the main point
of why they wanna see it. - (FBE) In your opinion, do you think
this legitimizes this fight, or does it make
a real difference at all? - I definitely think
that it legitimizes it more than last year.
And with KSI even stating that he wants to do this
as a career makes a big difference. - It makes a difference
instead of being that same hashed out thing.
They have to have the certain medical certifications to do it.
I bet that took a lot of hard work. - I could see how it is more pro.
Deep down inside, it's still gonna be a publicity stunt,
only because they are YouTubers, and that's what they do.
- I don't think it legitimizes it. They have to have a new selling point.
If they're just gonna be like, "Oh, it's a rematch.
Same place. Same ring. Same stuff," no one's gonna watch that.
No one gives a [bleep]. They're not fighters.
They're entertainers. That's what they are.
And they need people to watch this. Otherwise, they're not entertainers.
- (FBE) So, when this first happened last year, there were thoughts
that the success of this boxing match of the two online stars
could lead to more celebrities and influencers having
these types of fights if their fans seem to like them.
So, since the first fight, we saw things like Justin Bieber
challenging Tom Cruise to a fight on Twitter earlier this year.
- Ohhh my god. What?! - Oh my gosh.
Justin's gonna get his butt handed to him on a silver platter.
- Justin Bieber will get his ass kicked.
- (FBE) So, did you expect the hype and the success
of the first fight to lead to more boxing matches
between celebrities than what you've seen
since the last fight? - Oh, yeah.
Whether it's about the money or the fame, seeing how much
that they're getting, wouldn't it make you
also wanna do it? I would assume that so many YouTubers
would start doing it. - It hasn't really generated
any fights yet. So, I'm pretty sure
it's gonna be much in the future. - I did expect to see more fights,
because they got money from it. They can get money from it.
It's just... you know, it's viewership. It's entertainment.
It's a new idea. And content creators struggle with that sometimes.
- It's just gonna make it seem like, "Oh, it's okay!"
Like, "Yeah, I'm gonna beat this up, but it's just like-- oh,
yeah, yeah, yeah, it's just for publi--
it's just for fun. Whatever."
- This is kind of like the tiebreaker. Whoever wins this is stronger.
I don't think they're gonna have another fight.
They're probably gonna go off and fight other people,
but they're probably not gonna fight each other again.
- I deadass thought that there was gonna be a whole new thing
where we just throw entertainers in the ring and have them
hash [bleep] out. And then they [bleep] up
by not calling a winner. And I feel like because of how much
backlash they got, it made other people
who might have been interested in doing something like this
kind of back off. - (FBE) So finally,
after hearing what both KSI and Logan have to say on this
and learning a little bit more about the up and coming fight,
who do you think will take home the win?
- (sighs) I'm gonna say KSI. He just seemed so deadly.
- Pretty sure Logan's gonna win. - Logan Paul is so jacked.
And I hate him, but I feel like he might win.
- For my first impression, I think maybe KSI.
- JJ's gonna win for sure. As he said, someone's gonna
be knocked out on the floor, especially 'cause they're
not wearing headgear. - KSI.
- I would say Logan Paul might actually win.
- I think it's gonna be KSI. - KSI will.
Logan's gonna try. I'm sure he's gonna try
and do his best, but I think, in the end,
KSI is probably gonna win.
Also, 'cause I just don't want Logan Paul to win.
