KSI is set to exchange punches against the MMA fighter Dillon Danis in a boxing bout on January 14, 2023, at the OVO Arena in England. But ahead of exchanging punches, they have crossed tweets where they pulled each other’s leg. But someone else has also stepped in between this banter. And it is none other than the MMA legend Conor McGregor.

Conor McGregor takes a dig at KSI

The former UFC champion recently replied back to KSI, after the latter tweeted about defeating Dillon Danis in the upcoming boxing match. For those who don’t know, Danis was once the training partner of Conor McGregor. But now Danis is trying to make a name in MMA, and currently competing in Bellator MMA.

But after the two MMA fighters walked on separate paths, many speculated them to be no longer close. So, McGregor cleared the doubt as he tweeted that he’s “still rockin’ with Dillon.” Soon it came to the attention of KSI, who has been looking for an opportunity to take a dig at his opponent in the next match.

Olatunji wrote, I’m sorry but I’m about to do some serious damage to your boy.” The 29-year-old YouTuber might have not expected to receive a reply from the UFC legend McGregor on his upcoming fight. McGregor claimed not to care much about this fight between KSI and Danish.

The 34-year-old suggested his former training partner’s focus on MMA instead of participating in these commercial matches. The former UFC fighter tweeted,Brother you’re a friendly little nerd I don’t care. He should be back doing MMA if he is doing this little nothing burger match with you. I couldn’t care less about this genre of boxing, I am sorry. Have a good one.

How did Twitter react to McGregor’s tweet?

The fans didn’t support McGregor’s tweet and instead wrote how KSI has already established himself as a good action sports player. One fan also claimed this kind of commercial boxing started because of the former Irish professional. Let’s look at some of the fun reactions from the fans.
