As it turns out, Dillon Danis withdrew from the KSI boxing match last time. Misfits Boxing took precautions, securing backup fighter Mike Perry, a former UFC and current BKFC fighter. There’s a chance he might face Logan Paul on October 14th. Perry’s BKFC success includes three consecutive wins since joining in 2021. Initially, it appeared Perry might end up fighting Logan Paul in a crossover event.
Paul and Danis have hyped the game beyond anyone’s expectations. From the trolling, suing, lie detector tests and blasting each other, fans got enough to keep up with. Paul predicted Danis pulling out of the game for multiple reasons, multiple times. This time, he is attributing it to a fear of losing millions of dollars in the Nina Agdal lawsuit. Danis has his comeback ready.

Danis has time and again reminded fans of why he started the trolling. Through every interview, he has expressed frustration over the lawsuit. The trolling started with an attempt to spice up the fight and ended with a restraining order and a $150 million lawsuit. From there on, both sides have tried to justify their stance. Danis’s disappointment has been used by Paul to claim that he might pull out.
Donning a hat that read “I went on a date with Nina Agdal and all I got was this stupid hat” Danis showed up for an interview. Iterating once again that he is not taking the lawsuit personally, he said he was doing fine mentally. Adding that he could sue Paul if he wanted to, he clarified he does not want to enter a suing battle as well. Responding to Paul’s claims, he said “I’m rich, come one, stop it. I don’t need the money. He can go f**k himself.” Clearly, Danis does have a plan to back down after walking all these miles.

In a surprising twist, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fighter Dillon Danis recently explained his decision to withdraw from the much-anticipated bout with YouTuber KSI. Originally slated to fight KSI on January 14th, Danis shocked everyone by pulling out of the match. This led to a Lie Detector interview conducted as part of his boxing debut promotion.
According to Danis, the absence of an engaging storyline played a pivotal role in his choice. His history with the Paul brothers, especially Logan Paul, held intense significance. Danis highlighted KSI’s lack of credibility as a genuine fighter, given his primary identity as a video gamer, which made the idea of the match unappealing.
