Michael Bisping has facetiously hit out at an unlikely rival in Dillon Danis, in light of his upcoming boxing bout with influencer turned boxer, KSI.
Danis and KSI had agreed to a boxing match late last month. The pair have entangled multiple times on Twitter and Instagram, calling each other out for a fight for the better part of two years now.
With their contest all but finalized for January 14th, one can’t help but wonder how the bout might come about. Fortunately, former UFC Middleweight world champion, Michael Bisping has provided his wealthy expertise on the subject, facetiously hitting out on Danis.
Tough call. I mean you’re known for having devastating boxing skills right. I fear @KSI may of messed up here. https://t.co/WeGsztMFqq

In a now-deleted tweet by Danis, Bisping responded to the BJJ ace stating-
“Tough call. I mean you’re known for having devastating boxing skills right. I fear @KSI may of messed up here.”

The beef between Michael Bisping and Dillon Danis!
As unlikely as it may seem, it’s transparent by now that impossible means nothing in the mixed martial arts spectrum. Yet, the feud between Michael Bisping and Dillon Danis is one that no one could have foreseen.
Late last year, Bisping and Danis were involved in an altercation. Danis initially stated that he had sent the Englishman a ‘huge offer’ for a boxing contest between the two. Following this the pair have been in discord, going back and forth over the year.
Bisping was due for commentating duties for UFC 268 in New York when Danis tweeted at him stating-
“You f***** up (Bisping) not checking in with me when you come to NYC see you soon”
To which ‘Mike’ responded-
“Yeah buddy? Come see me. I ain’t going no where. I’ll send location any time you little s*** stain.”
And it set off from there. The pair’s dissension didn’t stop there as the 43-year-old even took a subtle dig at Danis’ mentor, Conor McGregor during his follow-up responses.

KSI vs Dillon Danis!

With KSI having had prior boxing experience over the last few years, it’s difficult to believe that someone like Danis who has never had a reputation for his striking, will emerge victorious.
It most certainly looks like an easy triumph for KSI, taking into heavy consideration that Danis is a Jiu-Jitsu virtuoso! Michael Bisping is rooting for his hometown boy as well, it seems!
Just imagine 😂 https://t.co/vfXM1w9wG6
