A war of words ensues yet again! Just a while ago, YouTuber turned influencer, and CEO of Misfits Boxing KSI slammed Dillon Danis on Twitter. For those who don’t know who Danis is – he’s UFC’s ‘Notorious’ Conor McGregor’s sparring partner. What’s more – he is also the next rival of another YouTuber-turned-boxer, Logan Paul. But why is KSI taking verbal jabs at his ‘PRIME’ co-founder’s rival?

Well, as it turns out – Danis was the one who started it. In a recent feature on the FULL SEND PODCAST on YouTube, the welterweight threw shade at KSI – claiming that he was never interested in fighting the YouTuber. Furthermore, he even revealed why he doesn’t respect the Paul brothers at all. These remarks seem to have infuriated the ‘Sidemen’ co-founder, and he took to Twitter to warn McGregor’s friend. But how could Danis let KSI’s words slide? In his characteristic smack-talk, Paul’s rival takes aim, yet again!

The online back-and-forth between the duo was kicked off by KSI, when he took to his Twitter handle to share a bold message to Logan Paul’s boxing rival. The YouTuber wrote: “Just wait till I see you. We’ll see if you have the same energy.” Referring to their Aug 22 meeting at their pre-fight press conference in Wembley Arena in London, KSI warned Danis to watch out for him.

 

Now, with a sharp retort, Danis has turned to his Twitter handle to snap back at KSI’s remark. What did he have to say? Well, obviously, Danis wasn’t going to go easy on his rival. He publicly challenged the ‘Sidemen’ co-founder, demanding he get into a room with him to duke it out and see who comes out on top. Moreover, Danis even declared that he’d “break every bone” in KSI’s body.

It is worth noting here that Dillon Danis was slated to clash with the Brit YouTuber for his boxing debut in January this year but pulled out of the fight shortly before the event day. Though Danis claims that he pulled out of the fight due to his father’s death – fans believe otherwise. Many netizens have roasted Paul’s rival on social media for allegedly chickening out of the fight.

This may very well explain why KSI’s ‘PRIME’ co-founder Logan Paul has tried to bind the welterweight into the fight with the much-buzzed-about $100,000 clause. With all the buzz around Dillon Danis’ boxing debut – the world waits with bated breath. What do you think? Will the smack-talker deliver on his words and dismantle KSI?
