Dillon Danis' MMA promoter Scott Coker has admitted that he will "have his hands full" when he faces KSI in the boxing ring next month.
The jiu-jitsu black belt has fought twice under Coker's Bellator MMA banner, winning both by stoppage within a round. However, he is much better known for his grappling than his boxing, and there is a belief that after a number of major fights and four years of intensive training that KSI will be the favourite in their clash.
Danis is under an exclusive contract with Bellator MMA, but hasn't fought for them since 2019 due to a string of injuries. However, he has been keen to move into influencer boxing for some time now, and Coker granted him permission to take on KSI in this special event next month.
