Who is Swarmz? Background, record, championships, biggest wins of KSI’s next opponent

The first ever MF & DAZN X Series event will see KSI fight twice in one night, and his first contest will be with Swarmz in the opening bout of the night. 

Swarmz is no stranger to the sporting world. The British rapper known as Brandon Scott was a former semi-professional football player having played in the National League South and Isthmian League. In 2018 however, he brought his football career to a close to continue his music endeavours. 

Both KSI and Swarmz have collaborated numerous times within the music world, but now they will go head-to-head inside the ring with Swarmz looking to spoil the party. 

Championships

Swarmz has never fought for a major boxing title. 

Biggest wins

This will be Swarmz's first fight as a professional, and there will be no doubt a win over KSI would be his biggest.
