It seems that KSI vs. Dillon Danis will go ahead after all.<\/p>\n
‘The Nightmare’ made his return in August, knocking out two opponents in one night on DAZN pay-per-view. Following the win, the British YouTuber again called out names such as Jake Paul and Andrew Tate, amongst others.<\/p>\n
Instead, it was ‘El Jefe’ who answered the call. While Danis has zero professional boxing matches, he’s undefeated in the Bellator cage at 2-0. The jiu-jitsu ace is also a training partner and friend of former UFC double-champion Conor McGregor<\/a>.<\/p>\n The fight was made following Dillon Danis attacking KSI during a Misfits Boxing weigh-in show last month. The pair were slated to headline a DAZN pay-per-view next month in the U.K., but those plans almost went awry.<\/p>\n Last night, the Bellator welterweight stated that the fight might not happen<\/a> in an interview with Chael Sonnen. According to Danis, the bout was in danger due to a rehydration clause in the contract. The fight was slated for a 177-pound catchweight, with a hydrated weight of 185-pounds.<\/p>\n Despite Dillon Danis’s comments, it appears his bout with KSI will still go ahead. On Twitter<\/a>, the YouTuber’s manager, Mams Taylor, stated that the fight will still happen. Along with that, he revealed that the weight clause will be taken out of the contract.<\/p>\n Ok how\u2019s this\u2026even though you signed and agreed to the contract 2 months ago\u2026. We will take out the rehydration clause entirely so you have no excuses left to back out now.
