During the UK press conference for the fight between Logan Paul and KSI, Paul unexpectedly left the stage before Geordie had asked the opening question. Paul had later made a video explaining why he left the conference, he claimed that "Moderator" (Geordie) was biased towards KSI and that he was a "Logan and Jake Paul hater", complaining that he let KSI continue his opening statement for too long. [[4]](https://youtube.fandom.com/wiki/True_Geordie#:~:text=Brian%20Davis%20(born%3A%20January%2026,people%20from%20the%20Newcastle%20area.)

Logan was referring to Geordie's video about his Suicide Forest controversy called LOGAN PAUL EXPLOITS A DEAD BODY.

In his video, Geordie viciously criticized Logan for his insensitivity towards the suicide victim and was even in tears when he talked about his personal history with suicide.

[[4]](https://youtube.fandom.com/wiki/True_Geordie#:~:text=Brian%20Davis%20(born%3A%20January%2026,people%20from%20the%20Newcastle%20area.)

Geordie responded to Logan accusations, he pointed out his silence and lack of rebuttal to KSI during the conference.

He also stated he felt indifferent towards the Pauls’ and that he did not hate them.

Despite this, he was almost removed from commentating the official KSI vs Logan Paul fight, which caused significant protest from the YouTube community; many YouTubers, including Boogie2988 and Calfreezy voiced their support for him. A petition was also launched which garnered over 15,000 signatures.

On July 30, 2018, after a phone call and a podcast between them, he confirmed that he has forgiven Logan for all of his acts and made peace over the issue, they even become friends too.

Logan then officially reinstated him as the announcer for the KSI vs Logan Paul on August 25, 2018.

Over one year later, when the rematch is announced, Geordie speaks with McKenna in his podcast about the fight and how the change from an amateur boxing match to a professional one will completely change the spectacle.

He was then introduced as the surprise host of the UK press conference by renowned boxing promoter Eddie Hearn but later confirms he will not be commentating the fight with either Sky Sports (UK) or DAZN (USA), who held the rights for the pay-per-view and instead, he intended to host his own watch along on fight night.

Prior to the fight, Geordie had both fighters on his podcast, along with parts of their teams, to discuss the fight.

[5] After KSI's victory, Geordie stated on his live watch along that he really hoped that this would be the end of boxing matches between YouTubers.

On August 19, 2019, there was a leak in Twitter and a screenshot of him sexting to a woman on Instagram went viral. This led to widespread social media coverage and he became a trending topic very quickly.

Keemstar took this opportunity to address the news and unsurprisingly, got a lot of disapproval from the viewers for invading his privacy.

Soon after, he released a video titled True Geordie Responds, in the video, he responded to the messages, with McKenna and Stephen Tries conducting a "roasting him to his face.[[4]](https://youtube.fandom.com/wiki/True_Geordie#:~:text=Brian%20Davis%20(born%3A%20January%2026,people%20from%20the%20Newcastle%20area.)

The controversy died out pretty fast and he did not lose any subscribers.
