MisFits Boxing make cheeky claim with Tyson Fury 'fight announcement' and KSI reacts

June 2024 · 2 minute read

Tyson Fury is an unpredictable character, but even so, it is very unlikely we will ever see him fighting on a Misfits Boxing card.

Founded by social media star, KSI, Misfits Boxing is a promotional company for celebrity/influencer fighters, but they recently made the cheeky claim that Tyson Fury would be appearing on their card on May 13.

The main event for that fight night will feature KSI against 9-0 professional boxer, Joe Fournier, but Misfits want to get Fury on the undercard.

The promotional outfit teased a fight between WBC heavyweight world champion Fury against reality TV star/American football player, Chase DeMoor.

Misfits posted the fight poster alongside the caption: "The GOAT finally gets his shot!

"Chase DeMoor has accepted the challenge of heavyweight prospect Tyson Fury."

KSI reacted on Twitter, as he joked: "I hope this is fake.

"Putting Fury's health at serious risk making this fight, smh."

This comes as Fury recently provided an update on his next fight date, taking to Instagram to say: "I’ve got some massive news coming.

“An imminent fight date and absolutely monstrous fight.

“Keep tuned, because the WBC world heavyweight king is back in action coming very soon, peace out.”

Rumours suggest this bout will be against Andy Ruiz Jr, who is best known for knocking out Anthony Joshua to become unified heavyweight world champion in 2019, with the fight expected to take place in July.
