But former unfied super-bantamweight champ Carl Frampton isn’t a fan of them
The likes of Paul and KSI have undoubtedly brought new eyes to the sport with their massive audiences, but Frampton is nonetheless still not a fan of them.
The Nothern Irishman told William Hill: “I don’t enjoy watching the YouTube fights. I hated it at the start.
“I understand what it is they’re doing, but the thing that annoyed me the most is when these YouTube guys start talking about how they want to fight Canelo [Alvarez], for example.
“Know your limit, fight fellow YouTubers, but know your lane!”
Despite not having a penchant for the world of YouTube and influencer boxing, Frampton admits there is a market for it.
He said: “It does generate a lot of money and it’s bringing a new audience to boxing.
“At the end of the day boxing is a business – it’s one of the dirtiest businesses in the world.
“Nobody’s your friend, it’s just a conveyor belt.

“It took me a bit longer to become wiser but once I did, I was able to see it for what it really is.”
