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.

When asked about his opponent’s absence in the press conference, Fury mentioned that it is going to hamper Whyte’s legacy. He said that it was a good fight, and years later, there would be no photographs or magazines to look at. 

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.

KSI was quizzed about Danis’ absence and he said, “In terms of Dillon Danis not being here at the moment I think it’s quite disappointing, disrespectful to me and everyone who’s here expecting him to show up. But it’s not something I haven’t seen before, same thing happened with Alex Wassabi.”
