He was speaking to DAZN ahead of tonight's X Series 017 event which is headlined by Danny Aarons facing former Premier League footballer Danny Simpson. 

KSI was originally set to be in the main event, but a hand injury forced the British star to pull out of in-ring competition and instead he will perform a special concert in Dublin. 

Fans are however eager to see KSI return to the ring and it looks like a comeback will be sooner rather than later. 

"I'm looking hopefully Q1 of next year," KSI said.

"I feel like at that point I'll be 100% with my hand, 100% in general.

"And you know, I will be able to give big super fights for people, who are watching on DAZN."
