Dillon Danis believes Logan Paul has done little to help promote their upcoming clash on October 14.
The BJJ specialist is set to make his long-awaited return to combat sports this month as part of Misfits Boxing’s ‘The PRIME Card’ in Manchester. In the co-main event of the evening, Danis is scheduled to square off with social media sensation Logan Paul in what has evolved into a grudge match after Danis targeted Paul’s fiancée, swimsuit model Nina Agdal, on social media in an attempt to build hype for the fight.
Needless to say, Danis’ strategy was a success with the former Bellator fighter gaining more than two billion impressions on X and nearly tripling his follower count.
During an appearance on the FLAGRANT podcast, Danis slammed Logan Paul’s promoting skills, suggesting that the WWE Superstar did nothing to bring attention to the fight aside from repeating a couple of cheesy jokes handed to him by podcast host Andrew Schulz.
“Logan is supposed to be really good at this promoting sh*t, but he’s not,” Danis said. “Let’s be honest. He didn’t do anything for this fight. He made a couple of stupid jokes that you wrote for him that were terrible.”
Dillon Danis Says He Made Nina Agdal More Popular Than Ever
Unfortunately, Danis’ questionable yet effective method of promoting has dragged an innocent party into the situation. Since the moment the bout was announced, Nina Agdal has been the subject of non-stop online trolling and slut-shaming courtesy of Danis.
And though most of the photos that he has shared of Agdal are available to the public online, he appears to have taken things too far when he allegedly posted a sexually explicit photo of her taken during a “romantic encounter” more than a decade ago. This prompted Agdal to file a lawsuit against Danis, claiming that he had violated state and federal ‘revenge porn’ laws and, as a result, could be on the hook for hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Asked if he feels bad for dragging Agdal’s name through the mud over the last several weeks, Danis admitted that he had. At least until she filed a lawsuit against him.
“In the beginning, yeah. But now that she’s suing me, no. F*ck her. F*ck that b*tch,” Danis said. “It’s all public. That’s her fault. She’s trying to say defamation and all this sh*t. You shouldn’t have done it then. Just because he did gay porn 10 years ago and I bring it back up and now he gets mad because I’m bringing it up his past. F*ck that. That’s her. She did that all herself. All those videos. Everything is her. All those pictures.”

Agdal’s lawsuit also claims that Danis, or someone he was working with, hacked into her Snapchat account and lifted videos that have been archived for quite some time. Danis vehemently denies the accusation.
“Do you think I’m smart enough to hack a f*cking iPad? She acts like I’m affecting her career, bro,” Danis added. “She had no career. Look at the Google trends. I made her more popular than she’s ever been.”
