KSI's trainer picks Jake Paul over Andre August for December 15 fight: 'He will stop this guy under 5'

After IFN posted a video of Andre August's training session, KSI's trainer, Leon Wills, put his bet on Jake Paul for the December 15 bout

CLEVELAND, OHIO: Leon Wills, the trainer of KSI, has predicted the winner of Andre August and Jake Paul's bout scheduled for December 15 in Orlando, Florida. He joined those who believe that Jake is going to reign in the much-awaited match. 

Earlier this year, the YouTuber-turned-boxer faced Tommy Fury and lost against him, but managed to beat Nate Diaz in an August match. 

Leon Wills believes Jake Paul will win the fight against Andre August

With less than a month remaining for the fight, IFN took to X (previously Twitter) to post a video of Andre August's training session, writing, "Some footage of Andre August on the Heavy Bag ahead of his bout against Jake Paul."

KSI's trainer, Leon Wills, however, was unimpressed with the film and chose to reshare the video. He placed a wager on Jake Paul and stated, "Yeah, 20 racks on Jake stopping this guy under 5." 

Jake has previously mentioned that he is confident in winning the match, but Wills will have to wait to see whether his prediction comes true.

On the other hand, Logan Paul, Jake's brother, has voiced skepticism on his decision to challenge the 10-1 boxer.

Logan Paul thinks Jake Paul fighting Andre August is not a good idea

Logan Paul is unsure that Jake Paul will prevail in the next battle, despite others, like Leon Wills, being certain of it. In the latest edition of his 'IMPAULSIVE' podcast, Logan voiced his worries that Jake could be taking on more than he can manage.

"This 10-1, he’s a beast, he hits hard, and he’s fast," said Logan, adding, "I get what Jake’s doing, but you gotta win because this no-name comes and starts f*****g up your record." 

Logan went so far as to say that losing to August may destroy everything Jake is working so hard to create, stating, "What you’re trying to build for the rest of your life… I don’t like the optics of that."
