KSI vs Logan Paul: Free live streams of rematch to flood social media amid piracy plague

KSI beat Logan Paul this evening at the Staples Centre as the YouTube pair finally settled their two-year long rivalry.

It was a majority draw in the amateur ranks first time around, but more than a year later KSI has finally settled the score with a points victory.

On the undercard, Billy Joe Saunders and Devin Haney successfully defended their belts in tougher than expected bouts.

It was a close fight that could have gone either way.
 
As the dust begins to settle here's Logan Paul's take:
 
KSI admitted that he was "scared" in the first fight but says this time it was different.

"Last time I was scared to fight," he said after the fight.

"This time I just went in. I just kept going and going."

"He couldn't deal with my jabs. I got him."
