A majority draw was backed by a tiny amount of punters and all eyes are on next year’s bout.
It was a huge occasion and in the end, six rounds and 18 minutes could not separate KSI and Logan Paul, who fought out a majority draw in front of a packed Manchester Arena.
21,000 crammed into the famous venue as odds-on shot Paul dominated the opening two rounds, but began to fade and tire as the Brit fought back superbly down the stretch.
One judge had KSI the victor by one round, but the other two scored it even and all eyes will now turn to the States next year, where the duo are scheduled to have a rematch.
It was a turn-up for punters, who banked heavily on both stars, with just 7% of bets going on the draw, which was available at 20/1.
Looking ahead to the next fight, one bookie has the two completely even, with both being priced up at 10/11.
Another has Paul the slight favourite again at 8/11, with KSI at 5/4.
One thing is for sure: If people thought that the event was going to be a ‘joke’, they can think again now!
