The KSI Wikipedia firmly states that KSI's height is 6 ft 0, which is extremely incorrect. JJ Olatunji has said multiple times that he's 5'10 during the propaganda raised during 2021. You may see videos (and other sources) state JJ's real height, which is not 6 ft 0 as stated, but rather 5 ft 10' / 5 ft 9'. Floxylak (talk) 13:57, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Adding to my previous modification request (since I haven't managed a way to edit it), I request you to swap his height from 6 ft 0' to 5 ft 10'. As seen here https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Vp-yUc3v424, JJ admits his real height is 5 ft 10' when prompted by his friend Zerkaa. Floxylak (talk) 14:01, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Can you change the height of ksi from 6"0 to 5"11 as proven in his video Cite error: The <ref>

References
The FAQ at the top of this page says that KSI's height should not be changed to 5'11" unless a reliable third party source supports this information. According to the WP:ABOUTSELF section in the Verifiability policy, we ordinarily allow a person's social media channels to be used as sources about that person. As others have pointed out on this talk page, we have a clip here from one of KSI's YouTube channels in which he says he is 5'11'", right at the beginning of the video.
It is very unusual for Wikipedia to reject self-published statements from a living person about that person's own body. Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 11:32, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

KSI stands for ‘Knowledge, Strength, Integrity.’ KSI has confirmed that his initials stand for ‘Knowledge, Strength, Integrity, and they mean so much to him that he had them tattooed on his body. KSI has a famous brother KSI's younger brother Deji Olatunji is also famous. He uploads vlogs, gaming, and pranking videos to his YouTube channel, ComedyShortsGamer, which has nearly 10 million subscribers. Deji and KSI are super close and sometimes appear in each other’s videos for fun! KSI does a lot for charity KSI has supported many charitable causes over the years; for example, through the Sidemen he organised charity soccer games which raised over £375,000 for the Saints Foundation, Childline, Charlton Athletic Community Trust, and Young Minds. He also sometimes dedicate the money he makes from adverts from some videos towards specific causes. Aw! KSI was the first person of colour to receive YouTube’s Diamond Play Button KSI got this button for reaching 10 million subscribers. Although the numbers are constantly growing, KSI has roughly over 22 million YouTube subscribers, 3.5 million Facebook followers, 7 million Twitter followers and 11 million Instagram followers. Crikey! KSI’s favourite sports team is Arsenal FC KSI has always been an Arsenal supporter and has also been involved with the club's TV channel. He has also created videos with various (now former) players, including Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Mesut Ozil. When it comes to international games though, during the 2018 World Cup KSI said he was supporting Nigeria, although he has often shown support for both the men and women's England teams.

((edit semi-protected))
template. I know there was prior discussion and a decision to leave out "boxer". Maybe the sourcing has shifted, and a new consensus is needed. Could you let us know which sources support "boxer" or "pro boxer"? Per MOS:ROLEBIO, we're not just looking for reliable sources, but enough such sources to show that the descriptor is "common".

The fights from the latest event are not listed on boxrec. Were these just an exhibition? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ksifan77 (talk • contribs) 00:37, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
The fights against Swarmz and Pineda were not professional fights.
PBA isn't authorised to sanction pro fights, these fights won't be listed on boxrec. Ksifan77 (talk) 01:15, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
Shouldn't the proof have to be that they were pro? There isn't anything to back that up. But the first source for it not being pro would be the fights not being listed on boxrec Ksifan77 (talk) 09:49, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
Wikipedia only echoes what reliable sources say. From the sources I've read, it's being described as professional. There needs to be strong sources that explicitly say it wasn't professional for Wikipedia to say the same. This article is a good start, but it gives no additional context so can't really be used for the claim. If The Independent have noted the issue (albeit very briefly) then there may be more articles addressing it in the not-too-distant future.
Not all that relevant because it probably wouldn't help, but did the MC say who sanctioned it? Officials (refs, judges, representatives from the sanctioning/governing body) are usually given a shout out before big fights. I didn't watch that shitshow of a pantomime...because I'm a boxing fan. – 2.O.Boxing 10:58, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
I can't seem to send links sorry. but you can see the event was regulated by PBA. On their site they list only white collar and semi pro fights to be sanctioned. The event would have to have been sanctioned by BDF if it were pro.
Additionally the fights were only for 3 rounds. The minimum is 4. The association of boxing commissions rules make repeated references to r rounds. They also state there will be no standing 8 count while one was used in the sensei vs Kenny fight. Dazn also lost pro fights as being between 4-12 rounds.
I would link the pages but my messages weren't going through when I did. Ksifan77 (talk) 17:04, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
I imagine there will be as more people ask why the fights aren't on boxrec, I was wondering the same question which is why I came here to look for more information. Ksifan77 (talk) 19:05, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
The mirror reported on the fight not being sanctioned as pro today. Ksifan77 (talk) 12:32, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
Boxrec now says the fights were exhibitions in the wiki part of Luis alcaraz Pinedas page. Ksifan77 (talk) 00:00, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
The best I've read up to yet is this article. It bases it's conclusion on the BBBofC refusing to sanction the fight and BoxRec not listing it as professional. BBBofC isn't the only organisation that can sanction fights in the UK and BoxRec has no authority to decide what is and is not a professional contest. Still waiting on an actual journalist to do some actual journalism and publish an article we can use. – 2.O.Boxing 08:13, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
The fights definitely were not pro. The commission that sanctioned doesnt sanction professional matches, the rounds and rules were different from professional contests,Tapology has all the fights listed as exhibition and BoxRec doesn't even have the event on their page. The issue is that there isn't really any coverage on the fact that it was exhibition, most of the sources call it professional. Until the sources correct themselves or until new coverage is shown, there isn't much we can do. ♡RAFAEL♡(talk) 18:40, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
There is no proof the contests are professional. There is however proof the contests are not (Boxrec / Tapology). These fights are therefore clearly exhibitions. Blahwikiblah (talk) 07:33, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
The fights were not sanctioned or pro fights. The only one gatekeeping the edits is SquaredCircle, who's convinced they were pro for whatever reason. There is no credible source proving that they were sanctioned professional fights. Rancid Boar (talk) 06:51, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
I've read the previous comments...you mean, those previous comments, where I quite clearly say,
they weren't professional contests? Your entire comment only serves to prove you haven't read the discussion. – 2.O.Boxing 10:06, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
@Rancid Boar and 69.80.66.131: It would be helpful for both of you to read the entire conversation and to read WP:BUTITSTRUE. It's also quite baffling for you to assume that User:Squared.Circle.Boxing is somehow 'defending blatantly correct information', a quick gander would show they're in support of the fights not being labelled professional. The big issue here is that we simply cannot change the fight result, the majority of the reliable sources covering it call it professional. Only Tapology, BoxRec, and the Mirror so far have labelled it exhibition. Take this article from a day ago by MMAJunkie.com; KSI has three professional boxing wins under his belt. He defeated Logan Paul in 2019 and defeated Swarmz and Luis Alcaraz Pineda on the same night last month in London
. Please do not assume bad faith towards editors over simple Wiki policies. ♡RAFAEL♡(talk) 14:40, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
The few sources that actually say whether it's professional or not are 1, 2 and 3, with the latter being the strongest source. Other reliable sources I could find simply call it a boxing match or an influencer/celebrity boxing match. Using the rules for professional bouts
to determine it's not professional is WP:Original research and not allowed. If you can find any RS that explicitly state it wasn't professional, then by all means, reinstate your edit and provide the source somewhere in the article (there's an article from the WP:DAILYEXPRESS but that's been deemed unreliable so can't be used).
I'm somewhat surprised there hasn't been any media outlets that have reported on it, but then again, I guess not many care about a YouTuber pretending to be a professional boxer. – 2.O.Boxing 17:18, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
I've been thinking more about this source. It's a reputable source and was published after the fight, while the sources I could find that described it as professional were all published beforehand. Seeing as we know the fights weren't professional–and considering there isn't more sources out there saying they're professional (I've had a brief look, they mostly call it an "influencer" boxing match/event or just simply a boxing match/event)–I'd be willing to go with The Independent. – 2.O.Boxing 04:11, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
Misfits cards in the UK are not sanctioned as pro fights due to the sanctioning body in the UK. Misfits cards in the US are sanctioned however and are considered professional bouts. Simple as that. Blahwikiblah (talk) 00:14, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
@Escape Orbit:Hi, merry Christmas. I noticed that you undid my edit on KSI in which I attempted to make clear what he's trying to imply, arguing that we should take the words he uses literally.
I feel like I should explain to you the difference between what he's trying to imply and what the wording he uses actually describes. Now, what most people think is an atheist is someone who firmly believes that there is no God; but that's not really the full picture. By definition, an atheist is simply anyone who lacks a belief in God; so, it's not just "I don't believe in God" or "I believe that there is no God," but it's a lot more broad than that:
Now, all of the examples I've listed above are examples of implicit atheism; and that's because none of these people are explicit on where they stand. Examples of explicit atheism would include believing that there is no God (aka what most people think an atheist is,) and people who don't hold a belief in God but are still explicit on their theistic views; this would be people who understand the concept, have seriously thought about it, and have concluded for themselves that they do not believe, i.e. "I do not believe that God exists" vs "I believe that God does not exist." And I should really address agnostic (a-gnostic) as well: it refers to the theistic view that the divine is unknown or unknowable. It doesn't mean that a human being is on the fence with regards to their theistic views, but rather it refers to an explicit theistic view: one cannot truly understand God properly, regardless if you believe in him or not. There is such a thing as agnostic theism and gnostic atheism, as well as agnostic atheism and gnostic theism.
Going back to JJ, the reason I made that edit was so that more people could understand the matter properly. There is a difference between what a word is popularly thought to mean and what it actually means by definition. JJ is not trying to imply that he thinks no one can truly know about God, even if they do believe in Him. What JJ is trying to say is that he is truly on the fence, aka he is not sure whether or not he believes in God. This would categorise him as an implicit atheist, because he lacks any firm belief in God, but he is not explicit on where he stands either. Also, theistic views and gnostic views are completely separate and should not be confused with one another. I am writing to you on the talk page for the article so that other contributers will be more likely to see my explanation. I'm going to change the hyperlink to implicit and explicit atheism, but I also send my thanks to you for pointing out that my edit may be seen as an Easter egg for people to find, so that is why I will also add an explanatory footnote to ensure that readers can readily understand the meaning of both terminologies. Thank you so much for your time and understanding, merry Christmas and have an extraordinary new year.GOLDIEM J (talk) 21:00, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

The exhibition fights should be listed as professional fights, they are pro rules. The BBBoC holds a strict monopoly over BoxRec and organizations which doesn’t give independent governing bodies the right to put on “sanctioned pro fights” despite being the same rules. 2601:80:4000:6BF0:54FC:35AE:C67C:6BCD (talk) 20:40, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

Originally, I had it set where both Pro and MF-Pro bouts would be recorded in the "Professional record" with the MF-Pro bouts having a note noting that they are "MF-Professional." I believe they should remain in the same record table rather than being separated as they are professional bouts all recorded on BoxRec, the only difference being the "MF-Pro" label, which is already noted in the notes part in the table.

KSI is 5'11 not 6'0 116.14.112.119 (talk) 09:43, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
There is no need to have a "amateur career" or a "professional career" subsections for this page. The current argument is that readers wont be able to differentiate between his white-color bouts and his MF-professional bouts. This is not true, the first sentences for each bout mentions their sanctioning therefore it is not needed. Having it written the way it is works much better since it recaps the journey of KSI's career, starting with calling out Weller and ending with a mega "Prime Card" bout. If KSI was a traditional boxer then I would argue with having them separated but because this is influencer boxing, I see no need. GhaziTwaissi (talk) 10:57, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
I believe having various sub headings such as "initial call out of Joe Weller" or "mega bout" just look silly. Regardless of the opinion of KSI being a boxer or traditional one at that shouldn't matter and so he should be treated the same as any other boxer regardless of the reasoning. Tommy's page still says "pro" or exhibition" and you could now argue he is an influencer boxer after love island and fighting Jake and KSI. In the amateur section for example, you establish the call out of Joe Weller and the background so there's no need for it to be called that. "two bouts with Logan Paul" as a heading doesn't add the weight of that rivalry and how big it was for boxing and YouTube and makes it seem more of a passing comment. Those fights were huge. They jumped from a white-collar match to a pro match with actual professional boxing champions as the undercard, that's huge and I think that should be recognised and separated from the amateur fights KSI had in 2018. The Tommy fight should also be listed as pro regardless of the MF Pro and the Pro fights all being listed as Pro they are still different. On BoxRec KSI is actually 1-1 as a pro but as a MF pro he is 3-0 (1) so the are different and I think that should be highlighted also. This is all for the ease of the reader. The headings A. looks silly and B. are unnecessary as said before, they undermine the accomplishment and the weight of them and you already establish the sub heading in the first lines of those sections, so it is like having the same thing written twice, one is just bigger text.Spooderman6920 (talk) 17:37, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
