The highly anticipated boxing match between KSI and Dillon Danis has been delayed once again, and this time, it’s not Danis who is to blame. The latest setback comes courtesy of KSI’s health issues, which have forced him to postpone the fight that was originally set for next week.
KSI’s Health Crisis Forces Postponement
Fans of YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI were left disappointed on Friday morning when the fighter broke the news to his followers that his much-anticipated bout with Dillon Danis would no longer take place as planned. The reason? KSI’s body has given up on him, as he is currently battling a serious illness that has left him struggling to get back to full strength.
In a candid social media post, KSI revealed that he has been dealing with severe sinus issues, persistent coughing, and excruciating tension headaches. “I’m coughing up greenish-yellow s*** all the time,” KSI shared with his fans. “My sinuses are hurting to the point where I need ibuprofen every day. The tension headaches that I’m getting are more painful than you can imagine.”
KSI continued by expressing his frustration, admitting that he has been battling this illness for almost three weeks without any improvement. “Basically, I’m f***ed,” he said, offering an honest and raw update on his physical condition. He apologized profusely to his supporters, as well as to DAZN, Misfits, The Sidemen, and his fans for the delay and inconvenience caused.
When Will KSI vs. Dillon Danis Happen?
The news of the delay was especially disappointing since the KSI vs. Dillon Danis fight has already seen multiple postponements. Initially scheduled for January 2023, the fight was pushed back due to issues with Danis’ preparation. At the time, KSI’s team claimed that Danis was “unprepared” and struggling with weight issues, causing the fight to be rescheduled for March 29, 2025, in Manchester.
However, KSI’s health issues have now forced the fight to be delayed once again, leaving fans wondering when the much-anticipated match will finally take place. At this point, there is no official word on when KSI will be well enough to step into the ring with Danis. KSI has expressed his hope to reschedule the fight as soon as he is fully recovered, but with no specific date set, fans are left in suspense.
Dillon Danis Responds to the Postponement
As expected, it didn’t take long for Dillon Danis to respond to the news of the fight delay. The MMA fighter, known for his brash personality and no-holds-barred approach to trash talk, wasted no time in mocking his opponent. Danis took to social media to call KSI a “p****,” making light of the situation by joking, “I remember my first cold.”
Danis’ response highlights the ongoing tension between the two fighters, which has been building ever since their initial bout was scheduled. While KSI has worked hard to build his boxing career and has earned respect from fans and peers alike, Danis has continually taunted him, adding fuel to the fire in their ongoing feud.
Despite KSI’s health issues, it seems that Danis is relishing the opportunity to get under his opponent’s skin. Fans can only wonder how the back-and-forth will continue as the fight is pushed back yet again.
KSI’s Rise in the Boxing World

However, despite his success in MMA, Danis has garnered attention for his brash and often controversial behavior outside the cage.
