With just hours remaining before his fight against YouTuber Logan Paul in the MF & DAZN: X Series – The Prime Card match, Dillon Danis has accused the commission of unfair treatment. Danis claims that Paul arrived late for the weigh-in and should have been disqualified as per the rules of the competition. Danis alleged that Misfits Boxing, the organizers, showed favoritism and influenced the commission into allowing Paul to continue with the procedure.
In his X post, Danis also shared the possibility that the fight might be called off due to rule-breaking. It is yet to be confirmed if the MMA boxer is serious about canceling the fight. In addition to Logan Paul and Dillon Danis, YouTuber KSI and professional boxer Tommy Fury will face off in The Prime Card matches on October 14.
Dillon Danis Accuses The Commission Of Unfair Treatment
The social media spat between Dillon Danis and Logan Paul took a real-life ugly turn when Danis threw a microphone at Paul during the pre-match press conference, injuring him. While there were speculations that the boxing commission might cancel the fight, Logan Paul confirmed on X that the fight was still on. However, another controversy has emerged with just hours left before the fight.
Dillon Danis took to X to accuse the commission of playing favorites, alleging that they allowed Logan Paul, who arrived late, to participate in the weigh-in procedure before the fight. Danis shared that the commission had informed him that if Paul didn’t show up before 11 AM, the fight would be called off. However, according to Danis, Paul contacted the organizers, Misfits, and was granted an additional one-hour extension. Dillon shared on X:
The commission’s rules state that weigh-ins are between 10 and 11. If you miss the 11 o’clock deadline, you’ve missed weight. I weighed in at 10:15, but Logan still hasn’t. The commission said that if he doesn’t arrive by the 11am deadline, the fight is off. He missed the weight,…

It appears that the boxer is seeking the commission to disqualify Paul and declare him the winner without a fight. However, Logan Paul responded with tweets on X, first sharing his weigh-in video and later sharing Danis’s tweets, commenting, “He’s so scared of me”. Interestingly, Danis had also walked out from a previously scheduled fight with KSI at MF & DAZN: X Series 004.
Will Dillon Danis Call Off The Fight?
The match between the two has interested many, especially after their heated social media exchanges. Both have dragged each other’s personal lives through the mud, with Dillon Danis even facing a lawsuit from Paul’s fiancée, Nina Agdal, for continuously defaming her and sharing revenge porn against her. Paul, on the other hand, made derogatory remarks about Danis’s mother. The stakes are high at this point, with several bets placed on the fight, including one by Drake.
However, Danis’s latest tweets suggest that the boxer may be trying to call off the fight citing the rule violations. While Logan Paul’s fans accuse Danis of pointless complaining, Danis’s supporters back his claims, arguing that Paul should be disqualified if he broke the rules. Danis continued his accusations against Paul and the commission in his tweets:
This isn’t complaining. What is fair is fair. No drug tests, breaking the weigh-in rules – I ain’t nobody’s bitch. I run the show. Fuck Logan Paul.

This fake commission is paid for by KSI and Misfits. They do whatever they say to get paid. This whole thing is a bunch of bullshit.
