Moreover, he will return from a 43-month hiatus from the sport after previously submitting Max Humphrey at Bellator 222 in June 2016. KSI, on the other hand, has been active in the ring, most recently beating rapper Swarmz and Luis Pineda in one night.

The fans were certainly not shy to call out both Danis and KSI on what they considered as a lackluster booking. However, the majority still believe that the YouTuber will easily overcome this challenge.
This opinion could be due to the fact Danis never competed in boxing and also not competed in MMA since 2016.
