On Saturday, January 14th, famous Youtuber KSI will face off against Faze Temperrr in the Misfits x Dazn boxing series, and he’s planning on making a big statement.

We sat down with KSI to talk about his upcoming fight against Temperrr, which will air live on DAZN PPV on Saturday.

Before the Faze Temperrr fight was announced, KSI was supposed to fight MMA star Dillon Danis, but Danis pulled out at the last minute for mysterious reasons. According to KSI, Danis has since been banned from Misfits boxing, and he says he’ll slap Danis in the face the next time he sees him in person.

“He’s an idiot, he’s a fool, I don’t want anything to do with him, he’s banned from Misfits, and if I ever see him in real life I’m going to slap him in the face.”

Like Danis, Temperrr is also a southpaw, which means KSI only had to tweak a few things during training camp, but he believes Temper is going to give him a tougher fight than Danis would have.

Temperrr is six foot four, so he’s got four or five inches on me. He’s got a bigger reach as well. Malik Scott is his coach, Deontay Wilder’s coach as well, so that’s something we’ve kept an eye on. And, yeah, we just know he’s a guy that does well on the outside. He fights well on the outside, so we definitely do not want to stay there. And we’ve got a game plan to make sure that we get rid of him nice and quickly.

This is definitely a tougher fight than Dillon Danis. Yeah, 100% way tougher fight for me. Dillon yeah, he’s got MMA, combat, jujitsu, blah, blah, blah, but I guess when it comes to boxing, he’s not all that whereas Temperrr, he’s been in the ring several times and he’s recently come off a knockout win. So, yeah, he’s definitely prepared and ready. But I’m KSI I’m a different beast.”

As for the fight itself, KSI plans to knock out Temperrr in the first round and put on a show for those tuning in.

“I want to try and finish this in one round. You can expect fireworks. I’m a fast fighter. I pressure my opponents. I like to get the ko. I like to finish my opponents. I like to get my opponents out of there nice and quickly. I don’t like to waste time. I’m not here to dance in front of you. I’m here to take out each and every opponent. And, yeah, you’re going to see a knockout.”
