The upcoming showdown between Dillon Danis and Logan Paul has generated significant buzz, with Danis targeting Paul's fiancée, Nina Agdal, on social media.
Danis' controversial tweets have led to a $150,000 lawsuit and a Temporary Restraining Order filed by Agdal. The lawsuit is expected to cost Danis around $400,000 in legal fees, even if he wins the 'Maverick.'
In a recent episode of the "BS w/ Jake Paul" podcast, Logan Paul commented on the lawsuit, suggesting that more legal charges may be pending against Danis. He characterized the situation as a major challenge for Danis, stating:
"It's heavy dude. I'll be honest, it's a fing .50 caliber Adamantium bullet to the dome. He's fed... We're about to catch a predator on October 14."

"This bums me out. First rule of fight club 1. Don’t sue another fighter building the fight."
