KSI faced off against Bridge in the ring at the Misfits Boxing 20 event and, after taking the microphone, said of the affair that his opponent’s ex-girlfriend allegedly had with Chelsea colleague Terry during their time together at Stamford Bridge: “Aren't you the guy that let John Terry smash your ex? I'm pretty sure that's what you're known for.”

KSI added a few expletives to his rant before breaking into a chant of “Vanessa woah, Vanessa woah” as he continued to reference Bridge’s former partner Vanessa Perroncel. His antics have not gone down well with Simpson, who was said to be sparring with Bridge ahead of his clash with KSI.
