The press conference ahead of Saturday’s Misfits Boxing fight between Tom Zanetti and Jayden King descended into carnage after the former squirted his rival with a water pistol. The two will go head-to-head at Sheffield’s Utilita Arena, on the promotion of YouTube sensation KSI, and if the fight is as chaotic as the build-up then fans will be in for a treat.
The mayhem started when Leeds-based DJ Zanetti stood up, leaned over Astrid Wett sat next to him, and squirted his opponent at the other side of the room. King, best known for his acting role in A Monster Called Charles, reacted furiously, and within seconds the pair were having a physical altercation before security men pulled them apart.
KSI himself seemed to be enjoying the scenes, captured laughing at the back of the room as the two men reluctantly returned to their seats. And then Zanetti started talking on the microphone, saying: “Let me tell you something, yeah? This guy (King) has got zero intelligence. Talk about low blows, he was talking about my son on Instagram…”
“You son is a d***head” interrupted King, before sending further verbal volleys the way of Zanetti. And this time, it was the DJ who lost his head, and he was held back as he lunged at King, before then even trying to come around the other side of the table to get at him from a different angle.
