Wayne Bridge Withdraws From KSI Boxing Match Over Personal Remarks

The retired footballer cited KSI's comments about a past scandal as crossing a line, prompting his decision to cancel the fight scheduled for March 29.

Wayne Bridge, former England footballer, has pulled out of his scheduled boxing match against YouTuber KSI just two days after its announcement.
The decision followed a heated face-off where KSI referenced a controversial past involving Bridge's ex-girlfriend and former teammate John Terry, which Bridge deemed too personal.
Bridge stated that the remarks affected his and other families, emphasizing his priority to protect his loved ones as a family man.
The fight was set to take place on March 29 and would have marked KSI’s first boxing match since his October 2023 bout against Tommy Fury.
KSI has not yet responded publicly to Bridge's withdrawal, leaving uncertainty about who will replace Bridge as KSI's opponent.
