The KSI vs. Dillon Danis predictions are here to provide fans with strategic and tactical insight into the influencer boxing match taking place next Saturday on March 29. The headliners meet for six rounds in an exhibition bout in the cruiserweight division.

Besides the main event, former UFC star Darren Till makes his return to the squared circle, taking on Darren Stewart. Like the headliners, the pair also meet at cruiserweight under exhibition rules. Their bout will be for eight rounds instead of six.

So, it begs the question - who should be pegged as the likely winners?

#1. Cruiserweight: KSI vs. Dillon Danis

The KSI vs. Dillon Danis bout has been years in the making. The two men were previously scheduled to clash two years ago on Jan. 14, 2023 at MF & DAZN: X Series 004. Danis withdrew from the bout due to suboptimal preparation and concerns about the rehydration clause in the contract.

Now, the bout has been rescheduled and they are a little under a week away from sharing the ring. In terms of boxing skill, neither man is anything to write home about. KSI has no jab to speak of and uses a large amount of wasted movement, which is why all of his fights are either three or six-rounders.

His gas tank doesn't hold up due to how frequently he lunges and explodes from his bladed, sideward stance. In terms of positives, his stance does allow him to dart in and out quickly, enabling him to cover distance with good speed. Moreover, he is fast, athletic and powerful, though has little else besides an overhand right.

He occasionally resorts to bending the rules in boxing, like incorporating excessive clinching and landing the occasional elbow. Danis, though, is even worse. Striking was never his forte and he hasn't shown anything boxing-wise besides pressure and a high guard, throwing next to nothing against Logan Paul.

KSI should win comfortably, with a TKO being likely.

The Prediction: KSI wins via TKO
