Logan Paul on Dillon Danis fight: 'Stakes just got higher' - ESPN

Logan Paul says that he's ready for Saturday's fight against Dillon Danis after Danis hit Paul in the head with a microphone at a news conference on Thursday in England.

«Dillon can't escape me. The fight is very much happening, the stakes just got higher,» Paul wrote on X, formerly Twitter, on Thursday.

Paul and Danis exchanged insults during a news conference in Manchester, and during an attempt to faceoff, Paul threw a bottle at Danis, who responded by throwing his microphone at Paul. Paul was eventually escorted out of the venue.
