The boxing world is abuzz with speculation as rumors swirl about a potential rematch between Tommy Fury and KSI. Fury, the younger brother of heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury, has pulled out of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! just weeks before the show's launch, fueling speculation that a more lucrative offer for a boxing rematch is on the table.

Fury and KSI first clashed in the ring in October 2023, with Fury emerging victorious via unanimous decision. The bout wasn't a thrilling affair, but the spectacle surrounding it drew huge interest on the 'Prime Card' shared by Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis. KSI, whose first boxing defeat came against Fury, was frustrated by the result and filed an appeal to overturn the result. Despite his efforts, the defeat remained.

KSI's First Defeat and the Push for a Rematch

For KSI, a second fight with Fury is the only route to revenge. However, a rematch didn't seem likely as Fury has been out of action all of 2024 due to a hand injury. KSI, meanwhile, scheduled a bizarre 2 vs 1 event to return against Slim Albaher and Anthony Taylor in August, but this never materialized. This left both men without a fight since their first meeting.

Fury's 'More Lucrative' Offer

Now, however, whispers of a rematch are growing louder. Fury, who was rumored to be entering the Australian jungle for I'm A Celebrity, pulled out just two weeks before the show's start date. Reports suggest a 'more lucrative' offer for a rival project was the reason, and that project is believed to be the rematch with KSI.

The Rematch - A Big Fight for Both

While neither man has a fight booked as of now, a rematch is arguably the biggest fight both can make right now. With Jake Paul busy with a fight against Mike Tyson, neither Fury nor KSI can secure a bout with 'The Problem Child.' It seems KSI, who has repeatedly called for a chance to face Paul, has now set his sights on a rematch with Fury. A victory over Fury would avenge the only loss of his boxing career.

The Future of Fury and KSI

The timing of Fury's pull-out from I'm A Celebrity, coupled with the rumors of a lucrative offer for a boxing rematch, has certainly added fuel to the fire. Fans are now eagerly awaiting news on the potential rematch. While neither Fury nor KSI has officially confirmed the bout, the fact that Fury withdrew from I'm A Celebrity suggests that a rematch is indeed a strong possibility. The boxing world is holding its breath, waiting to see if these two rivals will step back into the ring and give us the rematch we've all been waiting for.

The Future of the Jungle: Will Maura Higgins Fill the Void?

With Fury's exit, I'm A Celebrity bosses have reportedly set their sights on Maura Higgins as a replacement. The Irish beauty, who shot to fame on Love Island and is a close friend of Fury's former fiancee Molly-Mae Hague, is rumored to be bringing a touch of glamour and humor to the jungle. With only weeks to go, the show promises to be a dramatic and exciting one.
