Dillon Danis: MMA Fighter Danis and KSI Face Backlash for Posing With Belts- ‘What Kind of Belts’
While he did this as a promotion for the fight, fans didn’t take too kindly to it. Firstly, Danis did not show up for the press conference. And in addition, he is posing with two belts despite not fighting for over two years.
As a result, fans had a field day in the replies to his tweet. One fan even questioned what kind of belts they were. And taunted them by tagging the WWE online store for replica belts. Many even questioned why KSI has a belt despite not fighting in any organization, while others also ridiculed Danis for not showing up at the press conference.

What belts will be on the line for KSI vs Dillon Danis?
The situation of belts in boxing is already a very sensitive topic, with many fans questioning how many different belts there are. And now, with influencer boxing, there are even more. With different influencers having their own belts.
The belt that KSI holds is the Misfits cruiserweight title. An organization he has co-founded for influencer boxing. Therefore, it has nothing to do with the official boxing organizations. As for Danis’ belts, we do not know when he held the Bellator title, let alone became a double champion.
Therefore, for their January 14 bout at OVO Wembley Arena, Danis and KSI will compete for the Misfits cruiserweight title. However, Danis is right in saying that someone’s 0 has got to go. Officially, both Danis and KSI are yet to face defeat.
What do you make of KSI vs Dillon Danis? Do you think it’s all a farce?
