Jake Paul vs AnEsonGib: American YouTuber stops British rival in one
Written by News on 31/01/2020
Jake Paul dropped AnEsonGib twice to secure a first-round KO win in the battle of the YouTubers in Miami.
The social media sensations had traded insults in a fiery build-up to the showdown between the professional debutants but Paul settled their differences in a first-round shootout before demanding a showdown with KSI.
Paul found Gib, who was fighting from a low, square-on stance, easy to hit and caught him with a right to the temple to secure a flash knockdown in the opening exchanges.
The American dropped his British rival for a second time shortly afterwards, prompting the referee to call off the fight on 2m 18 seconds mark.
Paul immediately called out KSI, who handed his older brother Logan defeat when the pair met last year.
“I dedicated the past five months to this,” said the 23-year-old Paul.
“It was all just natural instinct in there as soon as we started.
“KSI is next!”
