Logan Paul and KSI are brutally booed by fans at UFC 284 in Australia as they watch the fight thanks to a sponsorship arrangement with Prime
Just a few weeks after their hydration drink, Prime, was named an official UFC sponsor, the pair were in Australia to watch the promotion’s second pay-per-view event of the year. The former boxing rivals who are now business partners made an appearance on the big screen just a few seconds after Randy Brown was impressively submitted by Jack Della Maddelena in the first round.
And the keen Perth audience delivered it to them with both hands, booing them passionately when they appeared on the screen. The boos were all over the RAC Arena, but it did not bother them. Instead, they laughed them off.

KSI and Logan Paul Prime Event are shut down by police
Local police in Perth, Australia have cancelled a highly anticipated fan meet-and-greet event that was supposed to include Logan Paul and KSI. According to a tweet from KSI, the Perth, Australia police have called off an event that KSI and Logan Paul were hosting to meet with fans and promote PRIME hydration. While specifics are unknown at this time, the event had been heavily publicised by the YouTube personalities who later transitioned to boxing.
KSI and Logan Paul, who went from making humorous YouTube clip programmes to fighting in a boxing ring and losing to each other, are two of the most well-known and powerful influencers. With various commercial initiatives like PRIME hydration and countless WWE appearances by Logan Paul, they have had a sudden ascent to fame that has never been matched.

The event has been postponed.
On Twitter, KSI announced that the event had been postponed and ended before it had even begun. At the time of the tweet, no information was provided; however, KSI advised followers to check back later for further details.
Many people were disappointed by the event’s cancellation because it’s rare to get to meet KSI and Logan Paul, and Australians who were looking forward to the event may have to wait a long time for another chance.
