Manchester. Nightlife. A cocktail bar. Not where you’d expect a fighter just hours away from a headline match. Yet, Dillon Danis, slated to square off against Logan Paul, chose Cloud 23 for his pre-fight scene. His drink? Non-alcoholic beer. An unexpected tweet from Michael Benson revealed this odd pre-match ritual. Gone are the days of solitude and rigorous preparation? Maybe. But Danis isn’t just any fighter.
His choice to sip a sober drink in a city known for its vibrant nightlife has everyone talking. Is this a relaxed approach or a mind game? Perhaps a new-age tactic? The video, sneaked from a private Snapchat story, further adds layers to this mystery. The scene is set: a high-rise bar, low ambient lights, a relaxed Danis, and a drink that’s eventually become the talk of the town.

The tension between Dillon Danis and Logan Paul reached its zenith at a recent press conference. In an unanticipated move, Danis, overwhelmed by the escalating verbal sparring and a bottle being thrown at him, hurled a microphone at Paul. The incident left audiences both in-person and online stunned, further intensifying the anticipation for their upcoming match.
Michael Benson, a prominent sports journalist, added fuel to this already blazing narrative. He tweeted about another intriguing facet of Danis’ pre-fight routine, sharing a video of the fighter at Cloud 23 cocktail bar in Manchester. Rather than appearing tense or deep in preparation, Danis seemed relaxed, even indulging in a non-alcoholic beer.
Fan reactions to both these events have been varied and vocal. One fan believes Danis’ calm demeanor showcases his confidence in an impending victory.
