TikTok sensation and OnlyFans star Astrid Wett was left red faced after she tried, and failed, to kiss popular YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI during Friday night’s weigh-in. You can see footage of that incident below.
Wett will make her boxing debut on Saturday night when she comes up against Keeley Colbran – the daughter of fellow TikTok star Simple Simon – on the second MF & DAZN: X Series card of 2022.
In terms of the other bouts, fellow internet personality Jay Swingler will face American YouTuber Cherdleys in the headline fight, while Slim goes head-to-head against Ryan Taylor in a light heavyweight match-up.
But perhaps the most-anticipated clash of the evening is Wett vs Colbran.

Ahead of their bout at the Utilita Arena in Sheffield, the pair weighed in on stage alongside KSI, who is promoting the event. Wett stepped on the scales at 127lb.
And moments later, the popular TikTok star tried to plant a kiss on KSI – real name Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji – after she engaged in some trash talk with Colbran.
KSI proceeded to lean away from Wett’s attempted kiss and laughed off the incident. Afterwards, she commented on the incident, saying: “It broke my heart but I understand, it’s ok. I mean he’s a good-looking man, if I had the opportunity, why wouldn’t you?”

So how did Colbran react to the incident? “That is so embarrassing, she has a boyfriend,” she said.
“I’ve been to places and she tries to chat s*** saying my dad tries to get with her, but her boyfriend is there with her the whole time. So Astrid, you can’t say anything now. You told me not to speak about it but this time you’ve gone too far, so now you’re exposed.”
Colbran says her rivalry with upcoming opponent Wett is personal after Wett labelled her father a “creep”. She also told Colbran that she could have been her stepmum.
“I suppose this is a little bit more personal,” Colbran said. “I kind of wanted to prove to myself that I could do something different. I’ve always struggled mentally and I wanted to kind of have some motivation to get back fit again like I used to and do something different to take my mind off everything.
“It definitely is personal after she chatted s*** about my dad.”

Wett says: “He [Simon] is a creep. I’m answering the question, I couldn’t give a s*** about your dad, he wanted me to be your stepmum at one point so I’d shut your mouth. I feel privileged to be on this card, I’m very lucky and thank you to everyone for having me.”
