However some fans described the decision to award Fury the victory over the YouTuber as a 'robbery'
Tommy Fury has defeated KSI in a shock win in front of a sold-out crowd at the AO Arena. The professional boxer beat the Youtuber in a majority decision on Saturday night .
KSI started the stronger of the two, dodging in and out of Fury's parameter that led to Fury being docked a point after punching KSI in the back of the head one too many times out of frustration. As the fight went on, Fury gained more of a foothold in the match and was able to pick KSI off in the clinch.
The decision by judges caused an audible gasp in the audience with many leaning towards KSI. In a heated post-match interview, a visibly frustrated KSI called the loss a 'robbery' and argued with a defiant Fury with KSI telling him: "You weren't landing, look at you. I'm the Youtuber and you're the boxer, you have to win, I get it."
