In a clash of combat sports titans, anticipation is building for the upcoming boxing showdown between Logan Paul and Dillon Danis. The stage is set for an electrifying co-headliner at the Misfits X DAZN: The Prime Card event on October 14th in the vibrant city of Manchester, England. For Paul, this fight marks a significant moment in his boxing journey. Following a hiatus that left fans wondering whether he would ever step back into the squared circle, Paul is gearing up to rekindle his boxing career.
Danis, on the other hand, has made waves both inside and outside of the cage. Initially touted for his potential as an MMA artist in the Bellator welterweight division, Danis later found himself crafting a different identity—that of a masterful social media provocateur. Leveraging his close ties with MMA superstar Conor McGregor, he has skillfully navigated the digital realm. Moreover, as the fight draws near, Danis has once again assumed his notorious antagonist persona.

Danis wasted no time in firing shots at Paul. In a move that exemplifies his penchant for stirring the pot, Danis took to Twitter to share an old photograph of ‘The Maverick’s’ fiance, Nina Agdal, on an intimate stroll with none other than Hollywood legend Leonardo DiCaprio. Before dating the social media sensation, the Danish supermodel had a tumultuous relationship with the 48-year-old actor.
This was a calculated taunt that aims to get under Paul’s skin and rattle his focus ahead of the impending clash. In addition, the internet was quick to react, with fans and spectators weighing in on Danis’ audacious move. Emotions ran high, and opinions were polarized as each fan gave their take on this bold and personal move.
A user claimed that Agdal dating Di Caprio before Paul was a win for the YouTuber.
That's a W for Logan, your wife was dating Di Caprio? That just shows how great she is

However, a user named Emy thought this was a ‘savage’ move by Danis, who has a talent for hyping fights.
That’s a savage move. Danis good at hyping fights, let’s hope he turn up. No one wants to see AT replace him.
