The scuffle between Dillon Danis and KSI ensued at the Misfits Boxing weigh-ins on Friday. Danis walked up to KSI, who is the promoter for the DAZN event, and the pair started exchanging heated words.
Danis asked KSI if he wanted to get choked out. KSI responded he could knock Danis out. Danis said, “Do it right now” before throwing a light punch and setting off the brawl.
YouTuber IShowSpeed reacted to the clip, saying, “Is this real? Wait. No way KSI got punched.” After watching KSI get punched in the video, the 17-year-old exclaimed, “KSI! Bruh! Did he just punch my man KSI?!” Speed showed concern for his friend and said, “Hey, I’m about to call him. See if he’s okay, bro.”
KSI and Speed recently faced each other in a game of football for the Sidemen Charity Match. The event was a massive success and raised over a million pounds.
Meanwhile, Dillon Danis has not competed professionally since Bellator 222 in 2019. He submitted Max Humphrey via armbar on his last outing. Following the scuffle with KSI, Danis got punched by boxer Anthony Taylor.

Anthony ‘Pretty Boy’ Taylor confronted Dillon Danis outside the venue after he punched KSI. The mixed martial artist turned-boxer went after Danis and landed a flush right, temporarily stumbling Danis. This led to a second brawl that had to be diffused by those who intervened.
