KSI Next Fight: Internet Personality Will Take On Dillon Danis This March

KSI and Dillon Danis have a lengthy feud, as you can see by the video above. That altercation took place two years ago. They were previously attached to a January 2023 event in London, but Danis withdrew due to a lack of preparation, lack of a coach and issues with the contracted weight.

Now, it appears we have all that sorted out and the two can finally settle their beef like grown adults. Ironically enough, Danis is replacing Wayne Bridge, who was the planned opponent and a former Premier League soccer player.

KSI started off his boxing career with four wins, including a first-round knockout in 2013 over FaZe Temperrr to retain the MFB cruiserweight title. Since that time, he has battled Joe Fournier to a no-contest and lost a decision to Tommy Fury. The bout with Fournier was originally a knockout for KSI but later overturned due to an accidental elbow strike.

Danis has spent time competing in submission grappling, MMA and boxing. He is 7-5 combined in the three, losing his only boxing match to Logan Paul in 2023 via disqualification.
