KSI has been seen spitting at John Fury after having a bottle thrown towards him during an open workout ahead of his fight with Tommy Fury.
KSI vs Tommy Fury headlines the Misfits boxing card on Saturday night, with Logan Paul facing off against Dillon Danis in another of the main events.
The open workout before the big event has been taking place in Manchester today, with KSI and John Fury among those in attendance.
Build-up for the fight, in terms of verbal jibes between the two fighters, has been relatively low-key – with the standout moment being when John Fury flipped a table during the pre-fight press conference, which subsequently created a mass brawl.
But footage has shown KSI spitting off a balcony towards John after the 59-year-old launched a bottle at him from below.

Speaking earlier on Thursday, the elder Fury left fans in no doubt as to who he believed would emerge victorious between his son and KSI.
He said (quotes via The Sportsman): “He [KSI] isn’t a boxer, is he? He’s a Misfits boxer, and there’s a big difference.
“At the end of the day, if you put him in with a proper pro, he’d probably get beat 10 times out of 10. But we’re not. He’s not saying he can beat pro boxers, is he?
“He is trying it on with Tommy. But in his heart of hearts, he knows he hasn’t got a prayer of beating Tommy. But people think he has. And that’s what put him there.”
