Saturday’s boxing grudge match between rivals Logan Paul and Dillon Danis has taken nasty twists and turns during the fight’s promotional period, with Danis incessantly targeting Paul’s fiancée Nina Agdal.

Agdal has sued Danis for “revenge porn,” and now Paul is promising to punish Danis for his actions. 

“This guy does not deserve this [opportunity] but he does deserve to get laid the f--- out,” said Paul. “I don't regret [choosing him as an opponent]. I actually took the consequences. Life moves on. Dillon Danis is one of the minor storms that I have weathered. I've been through some stuff in my adult life. A predator posed as a fake fighter is not something that concerns me." 

The social media celebrity and WWE performer Paul certainly brings plenty of confidence to the clash. 

Paul fought as a professional boxer in 2019 and lost a split decision to KSI. He also faced Floyd Mayweather Jr. in an exhibition match in 2021.

Danis on the other hand only has two MMA fights under his belt – both wins – but he hasn’t competed since 2019.

“Dillon Danis hiding behind a keyboard is much different than Dillon Danis in person. I witnessed it face to face. Just two separate entities. That night in particular will be incredibly glorious because I am going to have him face down and knocked out,” said Paul. 

“He's an irrational, delusional, predatorial human being.”
