Dillon Danis and Logan Paul entered the boxing ring to settle their online beef on October 14, but the fight just didn’t click. The MMA star was probably just trying to save himself from getting KO, and The Maverick eventually won the fight in the final round due to a disqualification.
Despite his embarrassing loss, Danis hasn’t backed away from the social media trolling and even called out Logan for a rematch in MMA. The 30-year-old reminded the YouTube sensation about the pre-fight agreement they made and asked Paul to compete with him again.

The Impaulsive co-host hasn’t responded to this reminder yet, and fans aren’t really happy about it. Even though Logan won the bout against El Jefe in dominating fashion, his decision to back off from the rematch has made him a public enemy.
Saying how the YouTuber should stand firm on the pre-fight deal, an audience member said, “If they shook on it then Logan should honor his word.” “Nope Logan won’t do it,” someone from the audience wrote while saying that Paul is just scared of fighting Dillon. (Via: X)
It must be noted that the deal they had was that if the Jiu-Jitsu artist shows up for the October 14 fight, they’ll have a rematch in MMA. As Danis showed up for the match, he now wants to go one-on-one with Logan in mixed martial arts. But will the Maverick now agree to the same? It remains to be seen what the future holds for this high-profile rivalry.

While it’s true that currently it seems like Paul has backed away from the deal they had, in reality they agreed to more than just an MMA fight. At that time, El Jefe had promised to give Paul his entire boxing purse if The Maverick wins their match at the Misfits boxing event.
As the social media star decimated Dillon during their match, the MMA fighter is now ready to spend $ 1 million to have a rematch with Logan. Sharing a tweet about the same, the 6ft tall wrote, “Logan keeps his end of the deal and signs a MMA fight I’ll give him my purse.”

It was revealed by the Jiu-Jitsu artist during his surprise appearance on Piers Morgan’s show that he made $1 million from the fight against the YouTuber. As it’s a huge amount and he’s ready to give it, it’ll be interesting to see what Logan decides about fighting him in MMA.
As The Maverick is set to return to WWE this Friday, a rematch with El Jefe doesn’t seem like a possibility now. But will Dillon Danis ever get the opportunity to settle the score? Only the future knows, but whenever he gets the chance, he’ll probably try to make the best use of it.
