KSI shreds Conor McGregor in latest Dillon Danis rant
For years, Conor McGregor and Dillon Danis have been referred to as close friends, though they haven’t officially trained together for years. The pair worked as a team for a few of the Irishman’s biggest fights including Khabib Nurmagomedov and Nate Diaz.
Nevertheless, with Danis living in Latest York with a young child and McGregor travelling the world from a base in Dublin, they rarely see each other lately. KSI used this to mock his rival, tweeting at him: “Conor McGregor, your best friend, doesn’t give a s— about you.
“When was the last time he supported you in the general public eye lol? I bet you’ll be able to’t even get him to tweet that he’s backing you in your fight hahaha. He’d much moderately be racist and suck off his cigar than tweet about you.”
In a later tweet, KSI wrote that Danis is “defo underestimating me. Thinks because I’m smaller than Logan Paul, I wont bang as hard and he’ll have the option to simply walk me down. He’ll get his money, but idk if it should be definitely worth the beating he’s gonna receive.”
