Dillon Danis is a very popular MMA fighter who rose to prominence for his ruthless fighting skills in the Bellator MMA’s Welterweight division. He has not been in a fight since his last match in 2019 but intends to exhibit his ruthlessness against Logan Paul and in future MMA fights. Recently, Dillon called KSI a nobody and claimed in The MMA Hour interview that his fight against Logan Paul was the only real competition.
Dillon Danis has an exhibition boxing fight against Logan Paul on October 14, 2023. However, he has attracted a lot of hate by going way overboard with his trash-talking and trolling of Logan‘s fiancee, Nina Agdal in the build-up to the fight. At the same time, Olajide “KSI” Olayinka Williams Olatunji has an exhibition boxing match against Tommy Fury on the same day but Dillon vs. Logan’s build-up has completely overshadowed the previous fight’s popularity.
Let’s dive in to understand why Dillon Danis believes his fight against Logan is the only true competition.
Dillon Danis expresses his thoughts about his fight against Logan Paul and on KSI vs. Tommy Fury
The official boxing fight between Logan and Dillon has been scheduled for October 14, 2023. But Dillon decided to step out of his way in his build-up to the fight and targeted Logan’s fiancee, Nina Agdal, before bullying and shaming her on social media.
Dillon did not curb behavior even after repeated warnings from Logan Paul and a lot of his colleagues. So Nina herself filed a massive lawsuit against Dillon Danis and requested a restraining order as well as prison time. However, the fight is still on and both the competitors are confident about defeating each other.

The KSI vs. Tommy Fury boxing fight will turn out to be equally interesting since both the competitors have no losses in the boxing ring. But Dillon Danis believed otherwise and stated in The MMA Hour interview that he never cared about the fight between KSI and Tommy Fury. Dillon also revealed that he initially had an opening to box KSI in the ring but the concept eventually came to an end.
He proceeded to call KSI a nobody and claimed that he was not a fighter. According to him, it was always about him and his fight against the Pauls, and he then proceeded to call Dillon Danis vs. Logan Paul to be the real fight. He also asked everyone to look at the amount of build-up the fight had and stated that he was the sole reason for this massive popularity.
The online community was completely accepting of what Dillon had said. They commented that Dillon was spot on and was telling the truth. People called KSI funny and added that he was a washed-up YouTuber. However, there were a few people against the MMA fighter and they asked who Dillon was if KSI was a nobody.
He’s spot on 😭

Without a doubt, KSI is irrelevant.
Danis v Logan is all that matters.

Hear me out. KSI is a washed up youtuber that used disstracks and boxing to keep himself relevant. I, for one, do not understand all the praise and hype towards him.

KSI and Tommy Fury aren’t taking it easy with the trash-talking
Although the boxing fight between KSI and Tommy Fury has been hidden in the shadows because of the massive build-up of the Dillon vs. Logan fight, they never stopped trash-talking each other on social media. Tommy Fury came out to be the calmer person but he claimed that KSI knew nothing about boxing in the DAZN face-to-face interview. Tommy had peak surety that he would destroy KSI’s boxing career completely.

KSI was quiet about the situation and stated that he would make Tommy Fury retire from boxing after their fight in the same way he retired IShowSpeed from his Football career. KSI also said in a future interview that he was a man of his word and promised that he would beat up Tommy with a smile on his face and even slap his father if he could reach him.
