Dillon Danis picks winner between KSI and Tommy Fury ahead of grudge fight

Dillon Danis thinks YouTube boxer KSI will be no match for Tommy Fury in their grudge fight.

YouTube boxer KSI looks to hand Love Island star Fury his professional defeat on October 28 when they meet at the Misfits Boxing 'Prime Card in Manchester. Danis is also featuring on the card as he makes his combat sports return against KSI's former opponent turned business partner Logan Paul.

KSI is yet to face a boxer of Fury's calibre and bookies have the YouTuber as a big underdog in the fight that, unlike many of KSI's previous bouts, will go on both men's professional records. During a recent live stream with influencer Adin Ross, Danis scoffed at KSI's chances of winning the fight by mocking his boxing skills.

"Tommy Fury is going to kill him, I don't know if he will knock him out but he will definitely just jab the s*** out of him and just outpoint him. He might knock him out though, KSI is nothing good he is very sloppy. He just swings his arms, he's an easy fight," Danis told Ross on the live stream."

Danis was scheduled to fight KSI at the beginning of the year but he pulled out of the fight on 10 days' notice after being "underprepared". The Bellator MMA star was told by KSI that he would never fight on Misfits Boxing, but the YouTube boxer admitted that promoter Mams Taylor made him change his mind.

"It was Mams, he loves Dillon," KSI told reporters including Mirror Fighting about the decision to have Danis back on Misfits Boxing. "I want to slap him so badly, man. [Logan] needs to destroy him. I want him on the floor lifeless. Logan can do it, he will destroy him. He will absolutely obliterate him."

Footage from behind the scenes of the launch press conference for the 'Prime Card' in August showed Danis and Fury bonding over their dislike for KSI. The pair both clashed with KSI onstage as Fury went on to trash his rival's boxing skills by saying: "He's nothing but a middleweight, he's two weight divisions below me. God help him on the night, once I put the weight back on he won't be able to get out the first round."
