Following his explosive 30-second knockout victory over Mariusz Pudzianowski in his mixed martial arts debut at KSW 150, Eddie Hall has revealed who he wants to face next.
Despite initially suggesting a rematch with the 48-year-old Pudzianowski, who has hinted at retirement after this third consecutive knockout loss, `The Beast` has set his sights on a different opponent.
Eddie Hall Calls Out Dillon Danis
Hall took to Instagram to thank his coaches, Gee and Jake Oaks, for preparing him, particularly for the grappling aspect he didn`t get to showcase in his quick win.
In the same post, the 37-year-old former World`s Strongest Man directly called out controversial figure Dillon Danis, suggesting a potential fight under KSI`s Misfits Boxing promotion.
Referencing the Misfits banner, Hall wrote: “Dillon Danis next. Sort it out, Misfits. Big Love. The Beast.”
Is Dillon Danis vs. Tony Ferguson Still Happening?
This callout comes amidst uncertainty surrounding Dillon Danis`s planned fight with UFC veteran Tony Ferguson.
Their bout was scheduled for the canceled GFL launch events in May.
Despite the delays and cancellation of the initial dates, both Danis and Ferguson maintain the fight will still happen someday soon.
Danis stated on social media: “Just got word, don’t believe everything you hear. My fight with Tony Ferguson is still on.”
Ferguson echoed this sentiment, writing on Instagram: “Great practice. F—— bet it’s on. Dillon gon’ get it.”
Fans are now waiting for GFL to announce a new date for the anticipated matchup, which could potentially free up Danis for a clash with Eddie Hall if it doesn`t materialize.
