Tommy Fury defeated social media star KSI on Saturday, winning via unanimous decision with all judges scoring the bout 57-56 in a six-round boxing match in Manchester, England.

The fight was originally scored as a majority decision because one judge's scorecard was incorrectly tallied as 57-57.

The bout served as the main event of Misfits Boxing's highly anticipated PRIME Card and was streamed on DAZN pay-per-view. KSI founded the Misfits Boxing promotion in 2021.

"I fought my absolute heart out, and that's all you can do," Fury said when asked if he thought he did enough to secure the victory.

Fury handed KSI his first defeat as a professional boxer. KSI called the decision a "robbery" and said he plans to appeal it.

"I felt like I won that," KSI said.

The fight didn't live up to expectations, as it featured a lot of clinching and minimal offense on both sides. Fury appeared to land better punches than KSI in the second half of the bout, leading to his decision victory. The referee deducted a point from Fury in the second round for hitting the back of KSI's head.

Fury, the half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, remains undefeated as a professional boxer, lifting his record to 10-0. KSI now sits at 1-1 as a pro, though he also holds a 3-0 (1 NC) record in exhibition boxing matches.
