It\u2019s often a tradition to visit a bar or gather at a friend\u2019s house to tune into the action, but this industry first aims to set a new standard.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time ever, Youtube will host a pay-per-view boxing match, allowing you to stream the fight between KSI and Logan Paul for just $8. While potential <a href=\"http:\/\/www.capitalfm.com\/news\/ksi-logan-paul-fight-stream-live-pay-per-view\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">viewers have complained<\/a> about having to pay to watch YouTube, Paul has defended the fee. He states that $8 is much less than you would normally have to spend on a pay-per-view match \u2013 the cost of which averages just under $100.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"tensions-rising\">Tensions Rising<\/h2>\n<p>You might expect a boxing match between internet stars to be a friendly competition \u2013 but you would be wrong.

He started vlogging in high school and built up his fanbase steadily over the years, Recently, he has been involved in a controversy after posting a video of a dead body on his YouTube channel.
