Dillon Danis took on Logan Paul in a highly anticipated influencer boxing match 10 days ago on October 14. The pair co-headlined MF & DAZN: X Series 10 – The Prime Card, the the KSI vs. Tommy Fury matchup serving as the main event. The bout was Danis' professional boxing debut and ended in disastrous fashion.
After mounting zero offense during the fight, Danis attempted a takedown, then later a guillotine choke, failing both times, before inciting a brawl that led to his disqualification. Despite the loss, Danis has not pulled back on his online trolling of Paul, recently sharing a picture of him standing next to a woman at a restaurant.
Upon sharing the picture, Dillon Danis implied that Logan Paul was engaging in an affair, as the woman is not his fiancée, Nina Agdal. However, Logan Paul's IMPAULSIVE co-host, Mike Majlak, claimed that it is his girlfriend pictured in Paul's company and that there is nothing nefarious afoot.

Despite no longer being linked to a matchup with Logan Paul, Dillon Danis has shown no signs of letting their rivalry die down. Their buildup to their boxing match was defined by the extreme lengths that Danis went to with his trash talk, as he often targeted Nina Agdal in a relentless smear campaign.
His efforts ultimately landed him in hot water, as Agdal filed a lawsuit against him and was granted a temporary restraining order against him. Where Danis goes from here is anyone's guess, as he has lessened his chances of being signed to another influencer boxing match.
In his bout with Paul, he was disqualified for attempting illegal moves twice and starting a brawl. Prior to that, he withdrew from a matchup with KSI.
Will Dillon Danis sign with the UFC?
World-renowned sports journalist Ariel Helwani recently took to X/Twitter to announce that Bellator MMA has released Dillon Danis from his contract with them. This comes not long after Danis began a public campaign to get signed to the UFC. Whether that happens remains to be seen.
The UFC has shown a mild interest in signing ex-Bellator fighters, with Michael 'Venom' Page being someone the promotion's CEO, Dana White, recently spoke about.
