Logan Paul v KSI Bout Shortens To Be Decided In First Round

Punters are expecting an explosive beginning to the highly-anticipated face-off between KSI and Logan Paul this weekend by backing the professional bout to be over by the end of the first round.

The first ring battle between the YouTube sensations in Manchester ended in a majority draw after two judges couldn’t separate them, while a third judged the fight in favour of KSI by a slender one-point margin.

The pair of social media rivals traded insults at a highly charged press conference before a tense stand-off saw KSI shove his online nemesis, but the London-born contender is expected to come off second best when the bell sounds and he goes into the fight as the 13/8 outsider.

American Logan Paul is the 8/15 favourite to make home advantage count at the Staples Center in Los Angeles in the early hours of Sunday morning.

But, our latest odds suggest the controversial rematch could be over in a flash, with the odds on viewers not even seeing a second round backed into 6/1 from 8/1 on Friday.

Logan Paul is just an Even money shot to knockout his opponent and he is just 5/2 to get the job done by any means within the first three rounds.

The first bout drew millions of viewers worldwide and the prospect of another draw was backed into 19/2 from 12/1 earlier in the week by other punters who believe a third fight may be required to settle the feud.
