Dillon Danis offered KSI $100,000 to postpone fight before pulling out

KSI claims that Dillon Danis' team attempted to push back the pair's doomed fight by six months, even offering him $100,000 to allow for the change.

The YouTube star was due to face undefeated Bellator fighter Danis next week at Wembley Arena but has been forced for the second time in his boxing comeback to switch up his opponent. The Brit will instead face fellow influencer Thomas 'Faze Temperrr' Oliveira and has expressed his annoyance at the circumstance.

KSI has shared a message, seemingly from Danis' team, in which they offered to pay him a six-figure sum in order to delay the bout until the summer. They appear to reference a clause in the contract that allowed for such a postponement, but the bout was ultimately cancelled, with the likelihood of a rescheduling next to non-existent.
