Dillon Danis is once again making headlines with his confident pronouncements.
The social media influencer and occasional fighter recently declared on social media that he is responsible for ending the boxing careers of Logan Paul and KSI. He now has Jake Paul in his sights.
This bold claim comes after KSI released a video expressing uncertainty about his future in boxing. Danis responded by tweeting, “I’ve retired KSI without even throwing a punch.”
He followed up with additional tweets referencing his ongoing rivalry with the Paul brothers.
Danis, known for his background in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, has had a sporadic combat sports career since 2018. He competed twice in Bellator MMA, winning both fights by first-round submission, but hasn`t competed in MMA for almost six years.
In October 2023, Danis faced Logan Paul in a boxing match that quickly descended into farce 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 most recent boxing appearance as he is currently focused on professional wrestling with WWE.
Danis was scheduled to fight KSI at Misfits Boxing 21 on March 29, but KSI withdrew from the bout due to illness. This was the second time their fight was cancelled. The first time was in January 2023, but Danis pulled out, with Misfits Boxing matchmaker Mams Taylor stating Danis was unfit to compete.
