"You know I have receipts" - Dillon Danis fires back at Paige VanZant after ex-UFC star starches 'El Jefe' on social media

Dillon Danis has hit back at Paige VanZant amid their intensifying war of words. VanZant, a former UFC star, is set to make her boxing debut next.

In a recent interview with Misfits Boxing, '12 Gauge' addressed the topic of MMA veterans not faring well in the boxing ring. Referencing Danis' boxing debut, a DQ (Disqualification) defeat against WWE superstar-cum-boxer Logan Paul in Oct. 2023, VanZant asserted:

"Dillon Danis is not a fighter. He's not a fair comparison."

Dillon Danis responded with a tweet, suggesting they had dalliances and she's resentful toward him because he didn't marry her. An excerpt from his tweet read:

"Don't make me bring up our two trips to Vegas and ruin your marriage."

VanZant (8-5 MMA) then posted an Instagram video and derided Danis (2-0 MMA). The 30-year-old implied that 'El Jefe' doesn't have "a wife, friends, or a credible MMA résumé". She noted that their lone Vegas encounter was at a 'UFC Fighter Retreat' where Danis asked her to "p*g him".

Alluding that Danis is probably attempting to talk his way into a fight against her husband, Bellator MMA athlete Austin Vanderford, VanZant said:

"Dillon, obviously, I said you're not a real fighter. I understand that hurt your feelings ... But stirring up drama on the internet to try and fight my husband? There's definitely better ways of handling that."

Danis has now replied to VanZant's video and made derogatory allusions regarding her previously having trained at the Team Alpha Male gym in California. In a post that comprised NSFW images of '12 Gauge,' Danis wrote:

"You're crying in that video because you know I have receipts. You sell your a*se hole and nasty botched t*t job pics because you were a terrible fighter and have to support your de*dbeat husband, a failed fighter turned Only**ns c**k, who can't even support you financially."

He added:

"You must have forgotten why I asked you to p*g me because that sta** pu**y filled the room from all the Alpha Male gym members who've nu**ed in you. Your husband isn't with you because you're special; he's the only brainde*d c**k who said yes. You settled for him because I was just too smart to marry a wh**e."
