WWE superstar Logan Paul says the boxing match against Dillon Danis will take place as advertised.

Things took quite a turn during the pre-fight press conference for Paul vs. Danis. While the two will co-headline a card that will see KSI and Tommy Fury serve as the main event, there's no doubt that the lion's share of attention is on Paul and Danis. At the end of their time during the press conference, Logan Paul threw an object at the legs of Danis. "El Jefe" responded by hitting his opponent over the head with a microphone, bloodying him in the process.

After the physical encounter, many wondered if Paul would be medically cleared to fight Danis this Saturday (October 14). The question became even more pronounced after Danis and backup fighter Mike Perry went face-to-face for a staredown.

It appears the social media star has answered the question of whether or not the fight against Danis will happen, taking to his X account to claim the following:

Dillon can’t escape me. The fight is very much happening, the stakes just got higher 😈

"Dillon can’t escape me. The fight is very much happening, the stakes just got higher," Paul wrote.

It'll be interesting to see if Logan Paul's words hold true. One of the fears was that if the cut was deep enough to where it required stitches, the fight could be ruled out.

KSI told media members backstage that Paul is still ready to go and he's "very angry." He claimed the injury was just a "little bump." KSI insists it won't be enough to cancel the fight and that Logan Paul will be fine.
