Conor McGregor needs no introduction to MMA fans. He is one of the few UFC fighters to boast the ‘champ-champ’ status. The left hand of McGregor is one of the most feared forces inside the Octagon. McGregor also may be credited with popularizing the sport of MMA all over the globe. However, recent times haven’t been very eventful for ‘Mystic Mac’. He got into legal trouble with his long-time friend, Artem Lobov regarding the distribution of profits after selling his coveted brand, ‘Proper 12 Irish Whiskey’. McGregor also faced a second lawsuit from Lobov, after his defamatory remark of calling Lobov a “rat” on his Twitter profile.

Amid all of this, McGregor received a warning from the noted British YouTuber turned boxer, KSI, about his former Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructor Dillon Danis. KSI apprised McGregor that he was going to subject Danis to a hard time. However, McGregor‘s reply had KSI laughing.

He also decided to react to it and put his reaction on his YouTube channel named ‘JJ Olatunji’.

It did not bother Conor McGregor about what KSI would do to Dillon Danis

The rivalry between KSI and Danis led to the fixture of a boxing bout between KSI and Danis on 14 January 2023. Recently, Danis appeared as a guest on the podcast of the noted MMA coverage personality, Ariel Helwani.

One of the fans watching this episode felt that Helwani was being disrespectful while he questioned Danis about his current relationship with McGregor. To which McGregor said that “I’m still rockin with Dillon. All the way!”.

This acceptance of Danis by McGregor instigated KSI to warn McGregor that he was going to hurt Danis on 14 January 2023. He wrote, “I’m sorry but I’m about do some serious damage to your boy”.

But it did not bother McGregor a bit about what Danis’ condition would be after the bout. His tweet revealed his opinion thoroughly.

KSI apparently found this funny that despite accepting Danis as still a friend, McGregor wasn’t worried a bit, even after hearing that his friend was about to be beaten.

He also predicted that McGregor would be more conscious of Danis after witnessing his beat down at ‘YouTuber-boxers’ hand

How did KSI react to McGregor and Danis’s apparent friendship?

KSI started off his reaction by stating, “Conor McGregor going back and forth”. He then read out the series of tweets leading up to McGregor replying to him. After reading the reply by ‘The Notorious’, KSI stated, “Well I mean, you say that, but” as he took a pause and laughed.

He then continued from where he left off, “when you see what I do to Dillon, yeah. I think you’re gonna care mate”. KSI found it really hilarious and stated, “That is so funny”. He said, “Anyway bro, you cared enough to reply so”. It was apparent that he thought his beat down of Dillon Danis would definitely garner a reaction from ‘Mystic Mac’.
