KSI could miss out on fight with Conor McGregor's teammate Dillon Danis

KSI's potential next opponent Dillon Danis has informed his promoter Scott Coker that he plans to make his return to MMA next, as opposed to a boxing match

Danis has been out of action since 2019 with a slew of injuries, but has not stayed silent in the past three years, declaring war with major names from the worlds of MMA, boxing and social media. In a recent poll of who fans wanted to see KSI fight next, the American earned over a quarter-of-a-million votes, placing him second to Tyron Woodley in terms of interest.

However, it now appears that despite a verbal battle with KSI over the past few weeks that Danis will compete in MMA as soon as this year, instead of taking a boxing fight with the YouTuber. He is 2-0 in the cage as well as a renowned jiu-jitsu black belt, but has never boxed at any level before.
