Logan Paul and Dillon Danis are all set to face each other on October 8th. And, to no one’s surprise, neither of the two men is leaving any stone unturned to prepare for the clash. But before they trade blows, the war of words between the two men is already in full swing.

Going into the upcoming bout, Logan will enter as the more experienced of the two men. The YouTuber turned professional wrestler has previously shared the ring with the likes of KSI and Floyd Mayweather. Something that the 28-year-old influencer thinks will play out in his favor. And in a recent video, Logan talked about his upcoming bout and how he believes that he will dominate Danis.

Recently, Logan appeared on the Misfit Boxing’s YouTube channel to talk about his upcoming bout where the YouTuber was seen giving a ‘reality check’ to the opponent of his upcoming boxing match. Amidst the talks, Paul claimed Dillon Danis’s standup to be his Achilles heel. Dismissing Danis as a ‘Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu guy’, Paul further said that he is the more experienced of the two with five years of boxing experience. As a testimony to his claim, Paul also recalled his encounter with Floyd Mayweather.

In Paul’s own words: “I don’t know how he thinks he’s gonna box; striking is his worst forte. I’ve been boxing for five years, went toe-to-toe with Floyd Mayweather, 0-1. Like, that should say enough, you know, about how good I am.” For those unaware, Logan Paul entered the boxing ring for the first time in 2018. With his younger brother, Jake Paul, soon following the route in 2020.

Since then, the brothers have faced who’s who of the combat sports world. However, the results for the duo have been vastly different. While the junior Paul has tasted some big wins, beating MMA stars like Nate Diaz and Tyron Woodley, Logan is yet to taste a victory, losing his previous encounters with KSI and Floyd Mayweather. Nevertheless, despite his not-so-impressive resume, Senior Paul remains the more experienced fighter here. Considering this is a debut bout for Dillon Danis, who seems to be going all out on Paul’s SO.

Dillon Danis is constantly targeting Nina Agdal; now gets support from this NFL athlete

A few days ago, Dillon Danis created a buzz on the internet after ‘El Jefe’ claimed that he thought Logan Paul’s fiancée, Nina Agdal, is transgender. A belief which according to his claim he held until it was confirmed to be wrong. Danis didn’t stop there, as he went on a spree of posting Agdal’s pictures with her former partners. For anybody wondering, this includes the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio and Joe Jonas.

Taking things a step further, Danis recently posted an old video featuring Nina talking about her previous intimate encounters. While this was already setting social media ablaze, it soon got even more clout after NFL star Antonio Brown reposted this. Brown followed this up by issuing a warning to Logan Paul. Telling ‘Maverick’ that he is in for ‘something’. Whether this something is an indication of a possible in-ring encounter or in the context of Agdal, is still a mystery.
