Speed, 18, real name Darren Jason Watkins Jr called out KSI at the end of November to take on the streamer in the ring.

The two will now battle it out in an event to raise money for the Anthony Walker Foundation.

KSI shared the news on his Twitter account on Tuesday with the caption “December 15th .”

But the pair have decided to go head-to-head at 4am UK time when Paul and August are expected to make their ring walk.

This could cause an issue for The Problem Child as he may struggle for views as two of the biggest names on YouTube take each other on.

Paul, 26, returns against August, 35, having beaten ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, 38, two months ago.

The fight is set to take place in Orlando, Florida and will be streamed on Dazn.

The timing of KSI‘s live stream was surely no coincidence as he and Paul have a long bitter feud.

In 2018 KSI challenged Jake and his brother to an amateur bout.

However, he only faced Logan in the ring, who he beat and now co-promotes the Prime energy drink with.

KSI and Jake were due to fight in August by the American management team pulled out and chose to fight Nate Diaz instead.

Then in October after KSI’s defeat against Tommy Fury, the American called him a “sore loser” after demanding an appeal.

Earlier this year Jake lost via a split decision against Fury in Saudi Arabia.
