Danis is a professional mixed martial artist who is currently signed with Bellator. However, he has been inactive in the promotion for a few years because of his knee surgery. He was previously scheduled to fight Paul’s business partner, KSI.

But Danis pulled out of the boxing match for some weight issues, per reports. Now, he will finally return to action against Paul this October. He took to his official Twitter account to talk about this fight and also took verbal shots at Jake Paul and Logan Paul. Danis wrote, “October 14th, I’ll be gracing the boxing ring for my debut. Gotta show up because the Paul sisters have a phobia when it comes to actual combat. Main Event live on PPV on @DAZNBoxing.”

Danis vs. Logan Paul: A brief about the fight

Danis, as aforementioned, has a strong grappling background and entered professional mixed martial arts in 2018 in Bellator. He has fought twice and has won both bouts via a finish.

Meanwhile, Logan Paul transferred into boxing and fought fellow YouTuber KSI in an exhibition match. However, it ended in a draw. And they fought again. This time it was a professional fight, which unfortunately Paul lost by split decision.

Later, he fought the undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather. And that fight ended with no winner since it was a knockout-only clause. However, Paul went a full eight rounds against a legend like Mayweather.

Following that, Paul took a break from combat sports and later joined WWE. After almost a year after a successful stint in WWE, Paul will now return to boxing. Thus, it will be interesting to see how much the YouTuber-turned-boxer has improved.
