The weigh-in event proved to be anything but mundane. A glass partition had been set up to prevent the fighters from directly confronting each other. Despite Danis’s loud requests for a face-to-face encounter, security measures firmly kept the barrier in place. During a post-weigh-in interview, Paul expressed his readiness with confidence. What made it even more intriguing was his decision to keep his mask on throughout the interview.

Taking an unexpected turn, Paul introduced Gordon Ryan, the jiu-jitsu prodigy, to the narrative. Many viewed this as a tactic to counter any jiu-jitsu moves Danis might employ. Furthermore, Ryan playfully threatened to relegate Danis to a mere car-washer role, adding an unexpected twist.
