CLEVELAND, OHIO: Logan Paul has turned down the MMA challenge posed by Dillon Danis following their boxing match on October 14. The outcome of the boxing match, won by Logan Paul, effectively concluded the ongoing debate about who is superior between the two.
Several months prior to the match, it had already attracted considerable attention from fans, largely due to the provocations and trolling by Dillon Danis directed at Logan Paul and his fiancee, Nina Agdal.
Logan Paul declines Dillon Danis' MMA match challenge
Despite lacking boxing experience, Dillon Danis persists in targeting Logan Paul on social media.
The 30-year-old Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu grappler dismisses Paul's boxing skills and has gone as far as issuing a challenge for a rematch, this time in the realm of MMA.
Danis said, “A Jiu-Jitsu guy with no boxing camp or coach made his debut, never wobbled, never dropped, had no standing 8 counts, and rocked you multiple times. If I were Nina, I'd call off the wedding."
He proceeded to propose an MMA rematch, stating, "You achieved nothing in your own sport; MMA next."
El Jefe discussed how he embraced a new challenge, acknowledging that despite not being a boxer, the odds were against him.
“What did you prove? You didn't even tickle me. You backed out of an MMA fight against me. Everyone knew I'm not a boxer, but unlike others, I took on the challenge even with everything in your favor: weight, steroids, rounds, rules, judges, referees... the list goes on. I won the War,” Danis added.
However, during the recent 'IMPAULSIVE' episode, Logan Paul declined the offer and said, “He doesn’t deserve the platform, We saw the kind of person he is.”
Moreover, British journalist Piers Morgan also trolled Dillon Danis while interviewing him. Morgan said, “You landed 9 punches on Logan in 6 rounds. That’s not great isn’t it? You threw more punches in the end at the security guys. He is a Youtube influencer.”
Internet reacts to Logan Paul’s decision
Internet users expressed their views after Logan Paul declined the MMA fight offer from Dillon Danis. A person said, “Logan is backing out and blaming Dillon.” Whereas another user said, “Good not tryna see this again”.
A person commented, “What a coward. I respect a lot Dillon because he agreed to fight against Logan in boxing. Logan could have earned a bit of my respect if he had agreed to an MMA fight. But losers remain losers.”
Another person mentioned, “Such a weird excuse what is he the internet police”.
