Fan reactions

Paul brothers, Logan and Jake, have been embroiled in a heated rivalry with Danis over the last several years, which intensified after the Logan Paul vs. Dillon Danis boxing match was announced.

Leading up to the fight, Danis engaged in questionable promotional tactics, primarily attacking Paul's fiancee, Nina Agdal. That created a hostile pre-fight atmosphere, but the boxing match itself was a strange contest. Paul dominated Danis for the majority of their October 2023 fight, as Danis had little to offer in defense as well as offense.

In the closing moments of the fight, Danis initiated a grappling exchange and was disqualified for it, resulting in Paul's victory.
