British Youtube sensation KSI will be seen squaring off against MMA fighter Dillon Danis in January. KSI and Danis were supposed to be at a press conference for their upcoming bout. KSI reached the venue in London, however, his opponent did not show up. The Briton had to attend the event by himself. Coincidentally, Tyson Fury experienced the same situation when his opponent failed to show up for the press conference.
Tyson Fury fought Dillian Whyte in front of 94,000 spectators at Wembley Stadium in April. However, during the opening press conference for their battle, Whyte did not show up at the venue. Eventually, Fury had to do an imaginary face-off with Whyte’s poster.

KSI shares disappointment for Dillon Danis being absent for the face-off
Conor McGregor’s teammate Dillon Danis is looking forward to making his boxing debut against KSI. He has been a Bellator MMA champion before. He preferred training for his fight rather than making a 7-hour long trip to London for the press conference.
