KSI vs Joe Fournier goes down at the Wembley Arena in London, and broadcasts on DAZN pay-per-view. The former is massively favored over the latter in the KSI vs Fournier betting odds, priced at -600.
Let’s analyze the KSI vs Fournier odds as we provide our best bet for this bout.
KSI vs Joe Fournier Odds
| Fighter | Odds |
|---|---|
| KSI | -600 |
| Joe Fournier | +400 |
KSI is a favorite in the boxing odds at -600, meaning the boxer has 86% implied win probability.
This cruiserweight contest headlines Misfit Boxing 7 and is one of the more curious matchups within this particular permutation of pugilism with content creators and online personalities clashing.
Odds as of May 8th.
KSI’s Betting Outlook vs Fournier
KSI will look to defend his Misfits title in this outing on the heels of a first-round knockout in his last outing.
He is among one of the bigger names on the influencer boxing circuit. KSI looks to take on a few more fights this calendar year after securing a win in January before leaving the sport before 2023 closes out.
The YouTube star readies to take on the most experienced opponent of his career so far. This seems to be a further effort for KSI to build up his resume en route to a fight with fellow influencer/ combat sports disruptor Jake Paul.
KSI’s aim is to knock out a pro boxer and do what his rival Paul couldn’t do which is beat a pro boxer with some wins under their belt.

This bout serves as a chance for KSI to jettison himself towards being the biggest name in the influencer boxing space per his own perception.
Joe Fournier’s Betting Outlook vs KSI
Fournier last took on former undisputed cruiserweight world champion and heavyweight boxing champion David Haye. He enters the ring for his tenth professional bout with a one hundred percent finishing rate so far. Fournier is an influencer of sorts in his own right as he is known by many as ‘The Boxing Billionaire’.
It’s been since late-2021 since Joe Fournier entered the ring and a bit over two years since his last pro win. Fournier theorizes that KSI will experience something similar to what Jake Paul did when fighting Tommy Fury, which is to say he will be overwhelmed by the skill deficit and eventually lose.
This is a curious fight to analyze as KSI has had a bit over a handful of fights considering pro, amateur, and exhibition efforts.
Conversely, Fournier’s opposition as a pro boxer has a combined record of 29-116, and 25 of those wins were recorded by two of those opponents.
KSI vs Joe Fournier Tale of the Tape

KSI vs Joe Fournier Prediction
This prizefight is scheduled for six rounds but I do not see this one going the distance.
I feel like the speed and other competitive advantages provided by youth are in KSI’s favor despite the localized experience edge Fournier has.
I feel there’s good value to be found in possible prop bets on this fight not going the distance and KSI winning via KO or TKO.
Pick: KSI (-600)
