My girlfriend is s***ting herself over Tommy Fury fight, but she’s my rock and the reason for my success, reveals KSI

KSI has dedicated his superstar success to his secret girlfriend – but revealed she is “s***ting herself” over his fight with Tommy Fury.

The YouTube, rap and crossover boxing star faces Fury in a massive grudge fight on Saturday in Manchester.

But the bout has left KSI’s partner – who he keeps away from the public eye – fearing the worst.

To help ease her nerves she demanded to watch her man in action – but KSI admitted she will still watch through her fingers on fight night.

He told SunSport: “My girlfriend is s***ing herself! She’s very, very nervous. 

“But I keep telling her or reminding her, ‘Remember the spar?’ She came to see me spar a few weeks back against this top, top pro.

“She’s like, ‘I know, I know but it’s still Tommy Fury.’ I was like, ‘Don’t worry, I’ve got this.’” 

KSI has largely kept his dating life away from the screen, despite a public relationship with Seana Cuthbert which ended in 2014.

But everything else about his day to day is largely available to his fans and 24 MILLION subscribers.

Even his friends – called the Sidemen – are in the business as they share a popular content group.

So KSI credits his girlfriend – who has no interest in fame – in helping him stay grounded.

He said: “She is the reason I’m where I’m at today, she’s my rock and I’m never going to leave her side. Simple as that.

“Having a private relationship is definitely the best thing. She doesn’t want to be famous, she doesn’t want to be known anyway so it just works so well.” 

KSI – unbeaten in his seven boxing bouts – heads into the fight of his life as a huge underdog.

Fury, 24, comes into the bout having beaten KSI’s arch rival Jake Paul, 26, in their Saudi Arabia grudge match.

Paul claimed to have made $30m (£25m) for the fight while KSI is expected to earn around £10m against Fury.

But he has claimed in the past that he does not see a penny of his purses and instead puts it back into his Misfits Boxing business.

And the grudge match against Fury will be no different.

KSI, 30, revealed: “When it comes to numbers, I’m pretty clueless most of the time. 

“For this fight, I don’t even know how much I’m getting paid. I don’t know. I know how much Tommy’s being paid and that’s about it. 

“I’m not really fussed, the money isn’t the reason I do this, I like creating big moments, I like looking back at my legacy and going, ‘Yeah, this was sick.’ 

“I just like shocking the world, I love it. There’s something about it which just makes me feel… I don’t want to say God like but it just makes me feel super powerful. 

“I feel like after that I will be able to make so many people’s lives hell on social media. I’m just excited.”
