Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis: YouTube star left bleeding, casting doubt over the fight

Logan Paul's grudge fight with Dillon Danis is in doubt after Paul was cut by a bottle thrown during their pre-fight face-off.

Logan Paul's highly anticipated grudge fight with Dillon Danis is now uncertain following an incident during their pre-fight face-off. The two fighters were scheduled to have a face-off in a specially built cage, but this was canceled when Danis went after Paul. As bottles were thrown between the two men, one bottle hit Paul, causing a cut that could potentially jeopardize the fight.

In the world of combat sports, cuts sustained during training camp have been known to force fighters to withdraw from their bouts. In this case, the public nature of the incident raises doubts about Paul's ability to compete on Saturday night. Both fighters are set to weigh in tomorrow, but it remains to be seen what will happen.

During the press conference for the KSI vs Tommy Fury fight, promoter Mams Taylor provided no update on the situation but expressed hope that both fighters would be cleared to compete.

Logan Paul, a prominent YouTube personality, is making his return to the ring after a hiatus of over two years. He will be facing Dillon Danis, who is known as Conor McGregor's teammate, at the Misfits Boxing Prime card in Manchester. The animosity between the two rivals has been building for months, with Danis relentlessly attacking Paul's fiancée Nina Agdal online. This led to Agdal filing a lawsuit and obtaining a Temporary Restraining Order against Danis, seeking $150,000 in damages.

The initial plan was for Paul and Danis to have a staredown after the launch press conference for the Prime card in August. However, the situation escalated, and Danis was escorted out of the Wembley Arena after an onstage altercation. Paul ended up facing off with Mike Perry, a former UFC star turned bare-knuckle boxer, who is now on standby in case Danis withdraws from the fight.

As we approach the fight, tensions are running high. KSI and Tommy Fury will also be settling their own rivalry on the same night in Manchester. The upcoming event is expected to be unforgettable.

With the fight just around the corner, Danis chose to showcase his Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills during Wednesday's open workout instead of hitting pads. He engaged in grappling with UFC middleweight Phil Hawes. Paul, on the other hand, entered the ring and threw only one punch before removing his gloves and imitating Danis by rolling around with his coach.

Danis has been threatening to withdraw from the fight due to Agdal's legal actions. During a lie detector test, he refused to give a clear answer about his participation. The multiple-time jiu-jitsu world champion has also warned Paul that he might submit him with a chokehold during their fight, emphasizing that his fight contract does not prohibit such moves.
