"Gotta make sure I dress for the occasion" - KSI's message following new purchase

KSI is certainly no stranger to indulging in extravagant purchases when it comes to his lifestyle. Several years back, he acquired a purple Lamborghini, and in the past, he even purchased a diamond-studded Beerus necklace, showcasing his strong admiration for Dragon Ball Z.

His most recent acquisition is quite impressive as well. Today, he revealed a £40,000 mouthguard, which he intends to wear during his upcoming fight against Tommy Fury. During the unveil video, he said:

"Oh my god! Cannot be throwing this to the crowd...oh mate, I can't wait. This going to be sick. It's going to be such a good day! This is the most detailed mouthguard, I've ever seen, I ever had, this is phenomenal man!"

He also responded to the news on his X account, stating:
