We’ve had enough of watching MMA guys box YouTubers. Let’s watch some YouTubers get MMA’d in the cage.

Way, way back in May 2018, Electronic Arts released EA UFC 3 to the masses. As part of a big promotional push for the video game, Michael Bisping teamed up with YouTuber KSI (aka Olajide Olayinka Williams) for a little fun in the gym. Despite being retired for several months, “The Count” tossed KSI around with ease.

Now that KSI is set to fight Dillon Danis in London on January 14th as part of a MF & DAZN: X Series 004 event, ESPN has decided to dig up some of that old footage of Bisping thumping KSI. After a long couple of years watching MMA guys get clowned in boxing, it’s nice to see the MMA guys getting to judo throw and armbar somebody.

Michael Bisping has been getting sucked into the KSI vs. Dillon Danis fight hype quite a bit lately. Recently, Danis reached out via social media to prod the former UFC middleweight champion into sharing a prediction for their January 14th boxing match.

“Hey Bisping, who you got winning,” Danis wrote on Twitter. “Me or your hometown guy KSI?”

“Tough call,” Bisping replied. “I mean, you’re known for having devastating boxing skills, right. I fear KSI may have messed up here.”

Those familiar with Michael Bisping may have noted the sarcasm dripping off that response, but KSI apparently took it at face value.

“LMAO, you have felt my power on the pads, and back then I was terrible. Dillon is sleeping whether I train or not. Here we have Bisping singing my praises when I was terrible. Imagine what I’d do to Dillon now?”

We won’t have to imagine for much longer. KSI and Danis will box on January 14th as part of a DAZN pay-per-view event. Also on the card: Slim Albaher vs. Tom Zanetti, Salt Papi vs. Josh Brueckner, and Ryan Taylor vs. Swarmz.
