“The Stakes Just Got Higher”: Despite Getting Bloodied At The Press Conference, Logan Paul Shuns Dillon Danis Fight Not Happening Claims
Follow Us
Logan Paul and Dillon Danis are currently the most talked about personalities in the world of boxing. Strangely enough, both of them aren’t full-time boxers. The former has a background in YouTube, while the latter is a 2-0 Bellator MMA fighter. Still, it doesn’t seem to be hampering the hype of the match-up at all. The fans are very eager to see these two men get inside the ring against each other.
Mostly, because of their personal feud, Logan Paul wants to get back at Dillon Danis for involving her fiancée. Danis hates the couple for filing a lawsuit against him, so much so, that things went upside down at the final press conference, and many even predicted that the fight may be called off. However, Paul has recently refuted any rumors like that.

It’s not a surprise if chaos ensues when these two fighters come face to face. That’s exactly what happened in the final press conference, amidst their verbal debacle. At the end, Danis threw the microphone at Paul’s face. This injured ‘Maverick’ a bit, and he even started bleeding after the fight. Since that moment, a lot of fans have been skeptical about Paul coming for the fight.
But as it turns out, Paul put the rumors to bed on the X app, as he claimed that he’d be there to face Danis on fight night and there’s nothing that can make him pull out. He wrote, “Dillon can’t escape me. The fight is very much happening, the stakes just got higher.” So Danis has made it even more personal for the Youtuber-turned-prizefighter.

Many thought the fight was canceled since Paul couldn’t even show up at the weigh-in. Meanwhile, Dillon Danis came out with a bizarre announcement of fighting Logan Paul’s younger brother, Jake Paul.

Before the press conference, Logan Paul couldn’t show up at the weigh-in, however, he replied with his video on the scales weighing around 194.3 lbs. But Danis did not validate such kind of behavior. He said, “He claims he made weight, but it doesn’t count. The rules are the rules.” According to the rules, both fighters had to weigh in between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. While Danis weighed at 10:15 a.m., Paul couldn’t do it by the prescribed deadline.

So Danis said, “We should be on an even playing field, he shouldn’t get special treatment. He’s already got more juice than Tropicana. He missed the weight, plain and simple. They’re trying to handicap me as much as possible.” So, later Dillon Danis posted a poster of him against Jake Paul on October 14 on the X app.
