On 14th January 2023, as a part of MF & DAZN: X Series 004, KSI will square off against Dillon Danis in boxing. It will be KSI’s sixth fight inside the ring. Recently, the YouTuber and the CEO of Misfits Boxing took to Twitter and expressed how he would face Danis without an iota of training or a well-maintained diet for the fight. According to KSI, the bout is so easy that he feels he can win by consuming sweets and junk food all the time.

Following the blustering comments by KSI, fans also took to Twitter and expressed their views regarding the YouTuber’s comments and him. The initial question that scratched the majority of the heads was why KSI then took the Danis fight since he is already declaring the fight to be too easy for him.

After his impressive performance on August 27th inside the ring, KSI called out a list of opponents including controversial Andrew Tate and ‘The Problem Child’.

Having talked about a list of fighters, KSI settled for Dillon Danis, a former training partner of Conor McGregor from UFC. More than a month is left for the Danis vs. KSI fight, and the YouTuber is willing to face Dillon with absolutely zero training.

A user pointed out that KSI’s remarks said a lot more about Danis than him. “Good luck catching up to Jake Paul”, they added.
