Paul was at the back of a pickup truck while doing this, and Danis rushed towards him for a counter-attack. However, the YouTuber directed the driver to pull away from the place.

The YouTuber turned boxer took to his social media and commented on the incident. He wrote, “Caught the biggest s**t talker slacking @dillondanis, you gotta check-in when you come to La. #GenerousDriveBy,”

Even after Paul’s attack on Danis and insults towards McGregor’s fiance, ‘The Notorious One’ seems uninterested in entertaining him. Paul even offered McGregor a whopping $50 million for a boxing match, but the former UFC champion has his eyes set on UFC 257, where he’ll rematch Dustin Poirier.
