Moreover, they were supposed to take on a Welsh team led by former Champions League Winner Gareth Bale. However, despite being the underdogs United States took the lead in the match lead in the first half through the goal of Timothy Weah. Bale would then go to neutralize this by scoring a leveler in the 82nd minute to see the points eventually being shared. Although this was an exciting match, KSI wasn’t too happy with the results. In a Tweet, he exclaimed his shock at how good the USMNT has gotten. “When did the USA get good at football?” he wrote.

Following this, Danis entered the ring to face off with ‘The Nightmare’ confirming their match. KSI will be coming into this matchup with 2 victories under his belt. He beat rapper Luis Pineda and Swartz in one night, while Danis has not competed in the ring for over 3 years. However, the jiu-jitsu ace is a former MMA fighter and certainly a tougher test than KSI’s previous opponents.
