Logan Paul Offers Bet to UFC Star Conor McGregor for Dillon Danis Boxing Match

Paul is ready to see the brash Irishman put his money where his mouth is.

Logan Paul has invited Conor McGregor to throw down some serious money if he's truly confident that his teammate Dillon Danis will beat Paul in the boxing ring.

It was announced late last month that Paul would make his return to the boxing ring for the first time in more than two years on October 14, and last week the 28-year-old confirmed that he would be taking on Danis in the latter fighter’s boxing debut.

Danis began his combat sports career as a grappler before making two appearances for Bellator, however the majority of his notoriety in the MMA world stems from his association with McGregor as well as his habit of booking fights that don't end up happening. 

“The Notorious” indicated at last weekend’s Anthony Joshua vs. Robert Helenius event that he had complete confidence that Danis would be victorious on October 14, and now Paul has responded by offering a $1 million wager to the former two-division UFC champion.

“If you’re so confident in your boy, I got a bet for you. I’d bet Dillon, but he’s a broke b***h. I got $1 million that says I beat your boy on October 14th...Let’s see how confident you are, imagine all the c**e you can buy you f***ing drug addict. Two dummies, one night, October 14th I’m f***ing you both up." - Paul said.

Danis hasn’t competed in any capacity since his win over Max Humphrey at Bellator 222, and the 29-year-old’s tendency to announce fights before pulling out of them reportedly encouraged Paul to include a clause in the contract that will result in a six-figure fine if his opponent fails to show up on October 14.

McGregor has already exchanged some words online with Logan’s brother Jake after “Problem Child” bested Nate Diaz in the boxing ring, and it remains to be seen if “The Notorious” will respond to Logan’s wager as he keeps busy with seemingly anything other than booking his return to the UFC.
