KSI has demanded that Tommy Fury must answer his private messages as the pair move towards their massive grudge fight on Saturday at the AO Arena in Manchester.
The YouTube star has upped his trolling game to compete with fellow co-headliners Dillon Danis and Logan Paul, taking aim at Fury with a series of cryptic messages including private ones as fight night nears. He has shared a number of posts alluding to things he's mentioned privately, as well as sharing unseen security camera footage appearing to show his rival.
And while Fury was being prepared to take on a fan Q&A with the official Misfits Twitter page, KSI submitted a question of his own through social media. The YouTube star tweeted in response to a call for questions by telling the promotion "Why won’t you reply to my insta dms p****?"
The build-up between Fury and KSI has been relatively understated when contrasted with Paul and Danis' intense personal battle, but there is an underlying feud between the two. Fury is viewed as an outsider coming to take out influencer boxing, while KSI is looking to cement his legacy in yet another vertical.
“I’ve definitely practised my winning speech,” KSI said during a recent appearance on Peter Crouch’s podcast. "Especially when I’m in the shower and I’m just there speaking to myself like, ‘Now what? All of you thought I’d lose to Tommy Fury, now what?’ I've done it all."

KSI vs Fury is touted to be one of the year's biggest pay-per-view events, with the co-headliner of Paul vs Danis coming alongside a series of other massive fights. Whindersson Nunes, Brazil's biggest influencer, will return to the ring against My Mate Nate, while the likes of Beta Squad's King Kenny also return.
Danis was scheduled to fight KSI at the beginning of this year in the main event of Misfits 004, but he pulled out of the fight on 10 days' notice after being "underprepared". The Bellator MMA star was told by KSI that he would never fight on Misfits Boxing, but the YouTube boxer admitted that promoter Mams Taylor made him change his mind.
