KSI\u2019s trainer says Jake Paul bout won\u2019t happen directly after Dillon Danis fight YouTube: BS w\/ Jake Paul, JJ OlatunjiKSI\u2019s trainer, Leon Willis, has claimed that the YouTuber\u2019s long-awaited bout against Jake Paul probably won\u2019t happen directly after his upcoming match against Dillon Danis next year. KSI is pulling out all the stops when it comes to influencer boxing. In 2022 alone, he\u2019s managed to partner his Misfits Boxing company with DAZN for a series of high-profile influencer boxing matches, on top of his prolific \u2018two fights, one night\u2019 event over the summer where he emerged victorious over Swarmz and Luis Pineda. Now, KSI is gearing up to get back in the ring against another hot-shot opponent \u2014 this one being mixed martial artist Dillon Danis. Although the two have been ramping up the rumors for some time, things came to a head when both parties clashed at the weigh-in for the latest Misfits x DAZN boxing event on November 19. A day later, KSI confirmed that he and Danis will be facing off on January 14. However, fans aren\u2019t letting him forget about his promised match with Jake Paul, which both influencers seemed to agree for some time in 2023. KSI\u2019s trainer says Jake Paul fight will have to wait This matter was brought up in a Twitter Spaces discussion with KSI\u2019s trainer, Leon Willis, who said that it isn\u2019t likely we\u2019ll see KSI and Jake Paul face off directly after his bout with Dillon. Instead, it\u2019s more likely that KSI has another \u2018buffer\u2019 match in between to help him get in tip-top shape, since he took a break for nearly two years to focus on music while Jake was scoring wins left and right. \u201cI think he will have another fight,\u201d Willis said in response to a fan\u2019s question. \u201cHe ain\u2019t gonna fight Jake straight after Dillon Danis. There\u2019ll definitely be someone else in line.\u201d This could give fans a broad timeline of when they\u2019ll see these YouTube rivals touch gloves; with KSI vs Danis happening in January, another bout will likely take place over the summer, meaning Jake Paul vs KSI could happen later in 2023. While it\u2019s unclear who KSI will take on next, there have been quite a few other influencers who have been happy to call out the British internet star, not the least of which is former UFC champ Tyron Woodley.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
