Logan Paul’s boxing fight against Dillon Danis was the most hyped bout at October 14’s Misfits Boxing event. Danis had massive buzz due to his social media attacks on Logan, but he didn’t deliver in their encounter.
The Maverick dominated El Jefe in the entire match and ended up defeating the 30-year-old. After this embarrassment at the hands of Paul, everyone thought that Danis would end the internet trolling. But he hasn’t really stopped doing all that.
Following his defeat, he initially mocked the YouTube sensation for not being able to knock him out. He even challenged him for an MMA fight, to which Paul didn’t respond. But now, Dillon is ready to to ready sacrifice his fight purse if Logan accepts a rematch in mixed martial arts.

Pointing out how The Maverick signed a deal to fight him in MMA, the Bellator welterweight contender shared a tweet. The 30-year-old wrote, “Logan keeps his end of the deal and signs a MMA fight I’ll give him my purse.”
It must be noted that these two had a pre-fight deal in which Logan agreed to have a rematch in MMA. The condition for the same was Dillon must show up for the boxing fight.
Similarly, Danis had said that he’d give his purse to Logan if he loses the October 14 match. The Jiu-Jitsu artist is now ready to fulfil his side of the deal. But it remains to be seen whether the YouTuber also stands up to his commitment or not.
How much money did Dillon Danis make from the Logan Paul fight?
El Jefe may have stated that he’ll give his purse to Logan, but it’ll probably be a hard pill to swallow for him. The reason behind it is that he earned a huge chunk of money for his bout with The Maverick.
The purse for the fight was revealed by Dillon during his surprise appearance on Piers Morgan’s show. During the conversation, Danis shared the amount of money he made from his high-profile match against Logan Paul.
On the show, Danis said that he made a purse of over $1 million from his match at the Misfits boxing event. The 30-year-old getting this much money from the fight is understandable, as the PPV reportedly sold over 1.3 million buys.

Even though the Jiu-Jitsu artist wasn’t able to win, he would probably still be happy due to the money he made. As Dillon is ready to give Logan his entire purse, it’ll be interesting to see if Paul agrees. As The Maverick is already headed to WWE, it remains to be seen what the future holds for this rivalry.
