KSI has just stopped Swarmz by a vicious KO in round 2 of their fight at the O2 Arena.
KSI vs. Swarmz is the first fight of the KSI vs. Swarmz and Pineda event. KSI, who is set to fight twice in one night, faced Swarmz in the first one.
Not much was expected from Swarmz as he stepped into the ring on 2-weeks notice following the withdrawal from Alex Wassabi. KSI was a massive favorite by fans and pundits alike. Keeping up with the people’s expectations, “The Nightmare” knocked out his first opponent of the night in round 2.
The fight started with KSI pressing Swarmz relentlessly. The fight was close to getting stopped in the very first round as Swarmz got hurt badly multiple times. Yet, the 25-year-old managed to survive the first round. However, the fight did not continue very long as he was knocked out by a big left hand from KSI early in the 2nd round.
The result did not surprise anyone in the boxing community. KSI, following his win, said that his power was too much to handle for his opponent and he is now ready for his 2nd fight. “He was moving quite a bit… But once he felt my power, it was over,” said KSI.

Swarmz and his trainer, on the other hand, blamed his loss on the lack of time to prepare. The British rapper also vowed to come back to ring against any YouTuber that wants to fight him. “I had to lose 12 kgs in 2 weeks. It was hard,” stated Swarmz in the post-fight interview. “Anyone who wants it. I will take anyone next”
