Why the Sidemen are missing ringside at KSI vs Tommy Fury

Biggest Influencer boxing event

KSI is set to go head-to-head with Tommy Fury this weekend in a highly anticipated Misfits event at the AO Arena in Manchester. The match is being dubbed as one of the biggest influencer boxing clashes in recent memory, with Logan Paul also on the card against Dillon Danis.

KSI's boxing journey

KSI returned to the boxing ring in August 2022 after a three-year absence and has since secured four consecutive victories. But his upcoming bout with Tommy Fury poses a significant challenge, and a potential clash with Jake Paul looms on the horizon.

Support from the Sidemen

With such a tough opponent, KSI could use all the support he can get. However, his best friends, the Sidemen, will surprisingly not be ringside to witness the fight up close.

Sidemen's attendance confirmed

Sidemen fans, don't fret! The YouTube group has confirmed that they will still be in attendance at the AO Arena. They won't be ringside, but will be enjoying the match from a hospitality box instead.

"We're in a box," Miniminter revealed.

Jokingly, Zerkaa added, "We're not allowed our seats by the ringside, unfortunately. We've been demoted as KSI's friends."

According to Miniminter, they did ask for ringside seats but were denied. He clarified, "Not JJ, just to clear that up. Not JJ."

Behzinga chimed in, "Yeah, they would rather sell the seats than let us have them."

Not always a benefit to having friends in high places

So there you have it. Even with friends in high places, it seems that there isn't always a benefit. Nevertheless, the Sidemen will still be present to cheer on their friend in what promises to be an epic boxing clash.
