Dillon Danis is known for his knack for stirring up controversy and ruffling feathers. The former Bellator MMA fighter and training partner of  Conor McGregor boasts a 2-0 record as a professional mixed martial artist. However, he’s now venturing into a new arena as he gears up to face Logan Paul in a boxing match slated for October 14th.

Danis has been relentless in his online trolling of Paul, with no punches pulled. One of the notable claims he’s made is the accusation of steroid use against Paul. The lead-up to this bout has been anything but quiet, marked by a storm of social media drama between the two adversaries.

Danis recently took to his Twitter/X account to call out Paul. Sharing a side-by-side picture of himself and his opponent, highlighting the stark differences in their physiques. In his Twitter/X post, Danis positioned himself as the “All Natural” fighter going up against what he termed a “Juicehead” in Logan Paul. Setting the stage for their impending clash on October 14th.

Danis has been adamant in his claims that Logan Paul is using steroids to achieve his chiseled physique. In a conversation with Adin Ross during a live stream, Danis emphatically stated, “He’s not a good fighter, he’s a single-shot fighter. He’s on steroids, he’s on EPO. I don’t know what the f**k he’s on.”

Paul, on his end, vehemently refuted Danis’s allegations. Speaking on comedian Andrew Schulz’s podcast, ‘Flagrant,’ Paul asserted that his impressive physique was the result of grueling training and nothing more.

 

Returning to the boxing ring for the first time since 2021, Paul has not been immune to accusations of steroid use from fans in the online community. Danis’s accusations have only added fuel to the fire of speculation regarding Paul’s physique.

The feud between the two fighters has also roped in Logan Paul’s partner, Nina Agdal. Danis has consistently taken jabs at Agdal. He even claimed that he was facing a lawsuit due to his social media antics, which could jeopardize his ability to compete.

In response, Paul dismissed Danis’s claims, asserting that he is unlikely to back out of the matchup. In a recent Twitter/X post, Paul stated, “Don’t let Dillon fool you… he knows that pulling out AGAIN would guarantee no fighter, fight organization, or legit brand will ever work with him because he’s an unreliable liar.”

Speculation about Danis withdrawing from the fight had circulated online. These were fueled in part by his previous withdrawal from a match against Youtuber-turned-boxer KSI just ten days before their scheduled bout in January.
