- Tommy Fury’s win against KSI corrected to unanimous decision verdict
- One of the judges’ scorecards was added up incorrectly on the night
- A social media post on Sunday revealed that a mistake had been made
Tommy Fury‘s victory against KSI has been corrected to a unanimous decision after one of the judges’ scorecards was added up incorrectly.
It was announced that the judge in question scored the fight as a 57-57 draw when he actually scored it 57-56 to Fury.
The other two judges also scored the six-round fight 57-56 to Fury as the Love Island star secured a controversial victory in Manchester.
It was revealed earlier on Sunday that a mistake had been made with the scorecards, although many felt KSI had got the better of Fury on the night.
After claiming on the night that he was ‘robbed’, the YouTube sensation posted on X: ‘Appreciate all the kind messages from everyone. In the ring and watching it back I feel like I should have won.

The scorecards for Saturday night’s KSI vs Tommy Fury bout revealed a miscalculation – Rafael Ramos (right) totalled KSI’s score to be 57 when it should have been only 56
KSI said afterwards that he ‘felt he should have won’ after the YouTuber landed plenty of punches on Fury
KSI was disgusted with the decision, labelling it a ‘robbery’ and vowing to appeal
His anger came after a scrappy fight that saw both men struggle to land significant shots
‘Either way I feel like I accomplished what I wanted to in the end. This little untalented nerd was able go toe to toe with a professional boxer. Use me as the living proof that hard work and self belief can get you anywhere in this life.’
Chris Eubank Jr was also left stumped by the decision with the professional fighter claiming the YouTuber ‘boxed better’ than Fury, while Eddie Hearn called the decision ‘horses s***’.
Fury’s brother, Shane Fury, even admitted that he was ‘very lucky’ to get the decision on the night.
The 24-year-old claimed he was done with crossover fights after Saturday’s bout but did leave the door open to a potential clash with Jake or Logan Paul.
Fury beat Jake Paul on points earlier this year and now appears to be open to a rematch with his boxing record now standing at 10-0.
Paul was involved in a controversy of his own at the Misfits event on Saturday night.
With Paul getting the better of Dillon Danis throughout their bout, the MMA star tried to take down his opponent in the final round and sparked a mass brawl.
Paul was awarded the win via disqualification after security guards had to go into the ring to separate the fighters.
