Dillon Danis punched Logan Paul in the head with a microphone during their face-off just two days ahead of their highly-anticipated boxing match, causing Paul to bleed.
It’s no secret that the feud between mixed martial artist Dillon Danis and YouTube star Logan Paul is getting serious.
After the two announced they’d be meeting in the boxing ring come October 14, Danis made it his mission to “sell” the fight by antagonizing his opponent’s fiance, Danish model Nina Agdal, on social media.
As a result of incessantly posting photos and videos of Agdal, the model issued a restraining order against him, on top of seeking “no less than $150,000 in damages” over the ordeal.
Since then, it’s been clear that there’s no love lost between the two fighters as fight night comes ever closer… but it looks like hands were thrown a bit prematurely.

During their face-off, Logan tossed a microphone at Danis, obviously annoyed at his opponent. In answer, Danis gripped his own microphone in his fist and landed a punch right to Logan Paul’s head.
