10 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Logan Paul
4. The Dillon Danis Debacle
Logan Paul fancies himself a boxer, and in late-2023, he agreed to fight mixed martial artist Dillon Danis. Things got ugly, and fast, with Danis sharing pictures of Paul's fiancee, Nina Agdal, in various states of undress. Danis was hit with a "cease and desist" order, then a lawsuit after he refused to stop.
Once fight night came on October 14th, 2023, things got a different kind of ugly. The match was clunky, at best, for the first five rounds, with Danis failing to mount any serious offense and Paul unable to put his opponent away. In the sixth round, Danis attempted several MMA moves, including a guillotine choke. Danis was disqualified after a brawl broke out (ironically, a scenario more appropriate for Paul's work in WWE!).
Danis has said he's willing to settle the lawsuit if Paul faces him in a match contested under MMA rules. It's safe to assume WWE is hoping their current US champion steers far clear of that one.
