KSI had been set to fight against the former teammate of Conor McGregor but will now face a different opponent on the card which takes place on january 14.

He's a warrior alright, a keyboard warrior, and hopefully he's learnt to leave the real men to speak with their actions rather than hollow words." For someone who cares about his reputation as much as he does or what people think of him, I didn't think that this (Danis pulling out) would be something, despite many people thinking that this would be the opposite that 'look, he's not going to show up to the fight'. Danis did not show up to the press conference in London last month.
