Dillon Danis is once again showcasing his inflated self-image.
The social media personality and occasional combat sports athlete recently declared on social media that he has brought an end to the boxing careers of Logan Paul and KSI. He also stated that Jake Paul is his next target.
This outlandish assertion comes after KSI hinted at potential retirement in a video, expressing uncertainty about his future in boxing. Danis seized upon this, tweeting, “I’ve retired KSI without even throwing a punch.”
He continued with further tweets, escalating his ongoing rivalry with the Paul brothers.
Danis, known for his Brazilian jiu-jitsu skills, has had a sporadic fight career since 2018. He has competed in Bellator twice, winning both fights by first-round submission, but hasn`t participated in MMA for nearly six years.
In October 2023, Danis boxed Logan Paul in a match that quickly turned comical due to Danis`s lack of engagement. He was disqualified in the sixth round for attempting an illegal takedown and choke. This was Paul’s last boxing match as he is currently pursuing a professional wrestling career with WWE.
Danis was scheduled to fight KSI at Misfits Boxing 21 on March 29, but KSI withdrew due to illness. This was the second time their fight had been cancelled. Their first scheduled bout in January 2023 was cancelled after Misfits Boxing matchmaker Mams Taylor claimed Danis was unfit to compete.
