YouTuber Slim Albaher recently took a dig at fellow YouTuber KSI. Albaher has accused the English influencer of avoiding their upcoming boxing match. Misfits Boxing announced last month that KSI will face Slim Albaher and MMA veteran Anthony Taylor in a 1 vs. 2 tag-team boxing match on Aug. 31 at Dublin's 3Arena.

The PRIME co-founder previously mentioned that rather than competing in a tune-up fight, he would prefer to test himself as a fighter. For this reason, he announced a special 1 vs. 2 boxing match and gave Albaher and Taylor a deadline to agree to the fight, saying:

"I want to challenge myself, so I'm going to fight a person that's been on my case for ages. So, I will be fighting Slim [Albaher] and Anthony Taylor in a 2 vs. 1 handicap tag team match. Both of you against me. You have 24-hours to accept. Let's do this."

Check out KSI's comments below:

Albaher and Taylor eventually accepted the bout. However, 'The Hitman' recently took to X and accused KSI of pulling out of their fight. writing:

''Ksi backing out the fight. I knew he didn’t have the b*lls to step in with me. After calling me a bi*ch last year we know who really is one.''

Albaher made fun of KSI in a different post, comparing it to how the latter treated him the previous year and pointing out that Albaher had backed out of his boxing match against Salt Papi. He wrote:

''Ksi has officially Ducked Slim lmao. What a BI*CH. He even asked him to fight at 180, Slim said sure. Now KSI has gone missing….Pathetic. @KSI''

However, despite the allegations, there isn't any official confirmation that KSI is pulling out of the fight,

In his last boxing outing in 2023, Albaher (7-0) knocked out Salt Papi in Round 4. Meanwhile, KSI (5-1) is coming off a unanimous decision loss against Tommy Fury.


Slim Albaher slams KSI for being a ''weight bully''

KSI recently mocked Jake Paul following his knockout victory over Mike Perry on July 20. Though many expected Paul's reaction, the Brit was chastised by his upcoming boxing opponent, Slim Albaher.

The English YouTuber was among those who criticized Paul for fighting opponents who were at a size disadvantage. However, in reaction, Albaher slammed KSI for his weight-bully statement, saying:

''Don’t talk about weight bullying when you doing the same thing against me in our bout coming up. I’m still gonna fu*k you up tho''
