KSI has hired a lawyer to start a legal battle to appeal his controversial loss Tommy Fury.
On the night, Fury was awarded a majority-decision win after two judges scored it in his favour with one card read out a draw.
It was eventually overturned to a unanimous after it was revealed the even score was actually totted up wrong.
KSI was left raging after the result was read out and warned that he would launch an appeal with the Professional Boxing Association.
The PBA – who sanctioned the bout – announced Chase DeMoor, Alexia Grace and Alex Wassabi had all launched appeals.
And KSI's manager Mams Taylor revealed they are in the process of doing the same after hiring legal help.

Taylor posted: "JJ has instructed a Kingโs Counsel who advised the PBA yesterday that he would be appealing the result of the fight.
"For obvious reasons, we will not get into the specifics of the appeal publicly and allow the process to play out in accordance with PBA rules."
Fury, 24, threw more punches at 159 compared to KSI's 124 and landed one more shot at 38.
But he was less accurate with 25 per cent of his punches landing with KSI's connecting with 31 per cent.

The YouTube, music and crossover boxing star kicked up a fuss following his first defeat and planned to take action.
He said: โWeโre going to appeal. I want to appeal. Iโm sorry, that is outrageous. We need to see it again. I felt like I won that.โ
KSI, 30, later broke his social media silence and put on Instagram: "Appreciate all the kind messages from everyone.
"In the ring and watching it back I feel like I should have won. Either way I feel like I accomplished what I wanted to in the end.
"This little untalented nerd was able go toe to toe with a professional boxer.
"Use me as the living proof that hard work and self belief can get you anywhere in this life."
