KSI branded ‘the Donald Trump of boxing’ after guest appearance on Jonathan Ross
KSI was branded "the Donald Trump of boxing" for refusing to accept his defeat to Tommy Fury.
The YouTuber-turned boxer was controversially beaten on points by Fury in October to suffer his first loss in the ring.
He was fuming with the decision and suffered further setback when his appeal to overturn the result was denied.
KSI was probed on the fight by TV host Ross, who asked: "You were undefeated until you fought - and you will know him from Love Island - Tommy Fury in the ring and then you lost on point."
But the social media sensation replied: "Well, I technically don't believe that I lost. I still think I won."
Comedian Jack Whitehall then compared KSI to former American president Donald Trump.

Trump infamously refused concede defeat in the 2020 election to Joe Biden and instead blamed it on a baseless conspiracy.
Whitehall quipped: "You're like the Donald Trump of boxing."
KSI let out a laugh but doubled down when told "delusion is a great thing."
He said: "Yes, it definitely is. But I didn't lose."

KSI initially announced plans to take time out of boxing following the heartbreak of his first defeat.
He has since confirmed he WILL fight again this year, eyeing a summer return, but remained cryptic when asked by Ross.
He said: "You never know. I might dibble and dabble. I might fight again this year."
