Fight Preview

MF & DAZN: X Series 21 will take place in Manchester on March 29, 2025. KSI’s return to the ring was announced earlier this year, as the YouTuber was set to square off against former England international soccer player Wayne Bridge. However, the former soccer player pulled out of the date in January.

Dillon Danis stepped in to fill the vacancy, marking yet another crossover between the worlds of MMA and boxing. KSI announced that he would be taking a break from boxing in October 2023 after suffering a defeat against Tommy Fury.

The YouTuber still boasts a respectable record after winning four of his professional bouts, which includes wins against fellow social media stars Logan Paul and Swarmz.

The controversial Danis will once again be the outsider for the bout against KSI. The former MMA star was set to be involved at X Series 004, but will instead leap into the ring to take on another YouTuber.

Danis was a respected MMA star before turning his attention to boxing, winning on each of his two appearances in MMA. However, his boxing debut was also marred in controversy after suffering defeat against Logan Paul via disqualification.

KSI vs. Dillion Danis Pick

The previous boxing bout involving Danis erupted into a circus when he attempted to take down Paul in the sixth round.

Should the fight be going against the MMA star once again in Manchester, he will likely adopt a similar approach. Therefore, we expect KSI to get the win in some capacity.
