Prior to his highly anticipated main event, here is a breakdown of Salt Papi’s boxing record and a list of his previous opponents.
Continuing the trend set by KSI, siblings Logan and Jake Paul, Salt Papi has undoubtedly left a lasting impression in the boxing world with his limited number of matches thus far.
Despite not having a flawless record, Salt Papi is well aware that, in boxing, your last fight is often the measure of your skill and success.
Therefore, as he gets ready to face off against Ferrari at the upcoming Misfits X Series boxing event on May 11, here is a detailed compilation of all his previous opponents and his overall boxing record.
The Rise of Halal Ham in 2022
In 2022, Salt Papi made his first boxing appearance on the Deji vs Alex Wassabi undercard, where he faced off against Halal Ham, a comedian and content creator.
Despite his opponent being a newcomer to the ring in 2018, Salt Papi emerged victorious in the three-round bout with a unanimous decision from the judges.
Salt Papi utilized his popular dance tutorial videos to his advantage in the boxing ring, as footwork is a crucial aspect of the sport. This proved beneficial as he made his debut in the boxing world with a dominant victory.
Andy Warski, 2023
For his next match, Salt Papi was scheduled to fight against Andy Warski on the undercard of the highly anticipated KSI vs Swarmz & Pineda event.
Warski, a professional content creator and film producer, was quickly defeated by Salt Papi in the opening round of the fight after being hit with a powerful double left hook within the first 20 seconds.
The display of brutal power happened within seconds of the bell ringing, making it a ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ moment. This serves as a timely reminder for fans attending his next fight to arrive early and secure their seats – the hot dogs and popcorn can be enjoyed later.
Josh Brueckner, 2024
Salt Papi’s next target was Josh Brueckner, and it would turn out to be the crowning achievement of his career, making a powerful statement to the world.
Despite being an MMA fighter himself, Brueckner was cautioned about his opponent’s powerful left hook following Salt Papi’s dominant victory over Warski. Unfortunately, there was little the ‘Boogeyman’ could do to defend against it, as he ultimately fell to the ground in the second round.
The atmosphere inside Wembley Arena was electric as fans, who had arrived early for the KSI vs Faze Temperrr undercard, were not disappointed in the slightest.
John Smith, 2023
Despite Salt Papi’s impressive start to his boxing career, it was cut short by a unanimous decision loss to Anthony Taylor on the undercard of the KSI vs Joe Fournier fight.
Despite having previously been defeated by Tommy Fury, Taylor emerged victorious over Salt Papi on the judges’ scorecards after the fight went the distance.
Despite the unexpected outcome in the influencer boxing world, KSI stated in his post-fight remarks that Salt Papi’s choice to limit the fight to three rounds was ultimately the deciding factor.
“KSI said that given the fact that Anthony Taylor was favored in all three rounds, he was confused as to why Taylor still wanted to do three rounds.”
“To secure an easy win, [Taylor] simply had to execute his tactic of keeping the match rough and dirty for three rounds. Unfortunately, he was unable to maintain this strategy over an extended period of time, spanning multiple rounds.”
Slim Albaher, 2024
With hopes of returning to his winning streak, Salt Papi set his sights on a match against YouTuber Slim Albaher.
With a stellar physique, Salt Papi entered the fight looking to be in the best form of his career thus far. He dominated the first two rounds, displaying an impressive level of precision and control.
Despite being 30 years old, the fighter was ultimately defeated when the referee intervened in the fourth round and declared Slim the winner by TKO.
