Dillon Danis has gained significant attention due to his provocative actions outside the ring in the past. As he prepares to face off against Logan Paul, it seems that Misfits Boxing is imposing restrictions on his promotional activities.
Danis has a history of stirring controversy in combat sports. With Logan Paul as his upcoming opponent, there’s a strong likelihood that their pre-fight verbal exchanges and antics aimed at boosting hype will escalate even further.

Dillon Danis, the Maverick’s opponent has also confirmed the fight through his social media channels. However, Danis doesn’t seem happy with Misfits Boxing as he said, “Apparently Misfits is censoring me saying i went to far and threatening to pull the fight wtf.”
Danis has a history of withdrawing from fights in the past, causing speculation about whether this time it’s either Misfits Boxing or Dillon himself potentially trying to provoke a fight cancellation. Recently, Dillon also asserted that Logan declined getting into an episode of “Impaulsive” with him.

Influencer Boxing commentator Wade Plem’s defense of Dillon Danis sparks heated debate
In the midst of the ongoing conflict between Dillon and Logan, Wade Plem, a prominent commentator in the combat sports industry, has shared his perspective on the matter.
The MMA expert acknowledges that Danis’ promotional approach might not resonate with everyone, but he considers it relatively nothing compared to the historical norms of fight promotion in the sport.
Wade believes that ultimately, the boxers who are stepping into the ring will have to address their actions through their performance. Recognizing that Paul and Danis are set to face each other, he suggests allowing them the freedom to promote the fight in their own unique manner.
This is silly if true. The way he promotes may not be for everyone, but this is TAME compared to other fight build over the history of this sport
At the end of the day he has to answer for it in the ring, these 2 are going to fight, let the man promote. https://t.co/atIJ2ech5W
