KSI, which is the nickname of JJ Olatunji, has had seven fights in total and won five, drawing his first bout against Logan Paul and facing a no contest against Joe Fournier earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>Despite former Love Island star Fury winning all eight of his professional fights including one against Jake Paul, KSI is more than confident. So confident, in fact, that he wants to bet seven figures on his own triumph.<\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE: Real reason Premier League appeared to block Sidemen Charity Game on YouTube<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE: Boxing news including Tyson Fury, KSI, Logan Paul and more<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Speaking to Adin Ross, KSI said: &quot;I\u2019m trying to put a million down on myself.
