“If You’re a Real Man…”: While Waiting for Jake Paul, Neeraj Goyat Sends “Open Challenge” to KSI for Potential Fight

Neeraj Goyat, an Indian boxer with a record of 18-4, escalated things recently. He confronted Jake Paul in Puerto Rico outside of Jake’s gym and in front of Amanda Serrano, sparking headlines. Their scuffle? It led to Goyat signing with Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions. Now, as Paul preps for a historic bout with Mike Tyson on 20th July, the spotlight shifts.

Neeraj Goyat has thrown down the gauntlet. Goyat is now channeling his combativeness towards a new opponent, KSI. His challenge is laced with confidence and disdain, aimed squarely at the Sidemen member. In a bold statement, Goyat declared, “Do you know the world is going to witness the biggest fight in India, Jake Paul vs Neeraj Goyat, but Jake Paul is fighting Mike Tyson in July. But Jake Paul and MVP promised me that our fight will happen in India.”

He didn’t stop there, directly addressing KSI with a provocative taunt: “I want to destroy this guy, a British influencer who claims to be a boxer. His name is KSI. Tell him I am the butcher of the boxing ring. So, KSI, it’s an open challenge for you.”

He further intensified the challenge, questioning KSI’s credibility and career. “If you are a real man, which I doubt, I know you haven’t faced any real boxer in your life. Come fight with me in the boxing ring,” he asserted, signaling not just a call to fight but a challenge to KSI’s very identity as a fighter. Neeraj didn’t mince words, promising to expose KSI: “I’ll show this world how sh*tty boxer you are, just like your sh*tty music career, you have to pay the price of disrespecting our South Asian Community.”

The caption of his Instagram post was equally defiant, tagging KSI directly: “Tag @ksi in your comments. @ksi I’ll destroy you, your bad time has started 🕓 @jakepaul after him you’re next 🥊 @mostvaluablepromotions make it happen 🚀”. This bold proclamation not only amplifies the challenge but also sets the stage for an explosive confrontation, should KSI choose to accept.

And this doesn’t conclude the challenge.

Jake Paul sets huge stakes!Jake and KSI have been going at each other since the start of YouTube boxing but never finalized a fight. Neeraj’s challenge to KSI can be a stepping stone for both KSI and Neeraj to fight Jake Paul. KSI hasn’t fought since his controversial loss to Tommy Fury on 14th October 2023.

Neeraj’s claim not only stirs the pot but also beckons Jake Paul’s attention, who couldn’t resist commenting on the post: “Hahaha, sh*tty music career even Neeraj knows. If this somehow happens, I want to fight the winner.” The challenge is now in KSI’s court, prompting anticipation for his countermove.
