Former Bellator star Dillon Danis once again falls short, attempting to mock Jake Paul for a change. Danis, on the left, and Paul, on the right, faced off in a boxing match. If one were looking to build on a successful boxing career, what steps would they take? According to Paul, it’s all about eating, praying, working out, and repeating. He recently defeated a seasoned boxer with a devastating uppercut knockout. Now, Paul is preparing for another professional boxing match next month. So, what does one do if they have a long-standing rivalry with the brother of their opponent? According to Danis, they troll him.
In January, the YouTuber-turned-boxer announced that he would be facing former Golden Gloves champion Ryan Bourland in an 8-round cruiserweight bout, which will be streamed on DAZN. Bourland has 17 wins with 6 knockouts to his name. Danis, who has had previous conflicts with Paul, took this opportunity to taunt him for choosing a certified Uber driver as his next challenge. He posted a doctored LinkedIn snapshot on X, mocking Paul’s choice.
Danis, known for his time in Bellator, fought against another opponent last year at the Misfits Boxing: Series X card for DAZN. He has constantly taunted Paul and his fiancée with explicit images of Agdal, leading to a defamation lawsuit against him. Despite the legal action, Danis continues to provoke Logan Paul and has faced criticism from fans.
Now, Danis is shifting his focus to Jake Paul. Although the “Problem Child” has gained popularity, he has also faced backlash. People have criticized him for his training camp antics and for choosing washed-up MMA veterans for crossover fights. However, this time, some fans are supporting him. One reaction stated, “He has a 4.9 rating, he’s a great boxer.”
Jake Paul always manages to surprise people with his bold moves. From teaming up with USA Boxing for the Paris Olympics 2024 to choosing a seasoned boxer for his 9th professional fight, he defies expectations. Once again, he has chosen an unconventional opponent. Despite previously announcing a fight in Puerto Rico, Paul will now face Ryan Bourland. This decision has led to Dillon Danis mocking him.
In light of this, how does one compare the “Problem Child” to the more problematic “keyboard warrior”? The answer is simple: go against the keyboard warrior. The MMA community has reacted to Danis’ latest taunt, and here are some of their responses:
– “And? A job is a job.”
– “I mean, he’ll probably actually throw a punch unlike you did 😆”
– “He probably still throws more punches than you did against Logan Paul”
– “Let’s not forget, Alexandre Pantoja was an Uber Eats driver right before he became the UFC Flyweight Champion.”
Danis’ record is 0-2 against YouTubers, and he remains less active than his opponents. Some fans have criticized him for job-shaming and not understanding the real world. They see him as nothing more than a Twitter keyboard warrior. Danis’ performance at the AO Arena in Manchester was far from impressive, as he was disqualified for an illegal move. Since then, his social media presence has received backlash, and fight fans continue to mock him for his attempts to provoke Paul. They also bring up the example of the UFC flyweight champion, who used to work as an Uber Eats driver before achieving success in the octagon. Overall, Danis’ online presence and antics continue to stir up fans.
