Dillon Danis

All hell broke loose during Dillon Danis’ appearance on the FLAGRANT podcast with Andrew Shulz.

On October 14, Danis will return to competitive combat sports for the first time four years when he steps inside the squared circle for a highly anticipated clash with social media sensation Logan Paul. The pair are set to co-headline Misfits Boxing’s ‘The PRIME Card’ in Manchester with a matchup between undefeated prospects KSI and Tommy Fury slated for the main event.

Before strapping on the eight-ounce gloves later this month Dillon Danis made an appearance on Schulz’s popular podcast where things got a little out of hand between the two.

It all started when a scuffle broke out between Danis, Schulz and three other individuals on set. After everything was broken up, Danis and Schulz once again got in each other’s face before cooler heads prevailed.

“You wanna go head to head? You are touching me with your mouth and kissing me! He’s like a f*cking Rhinoceros, this guy,” Schulz said as Danis butted heads with him. “He’s grabbing my t*int! Oh f*ck! I got him right where we want him. I can’t breathe, I got his balls!” 

Of course, it was nothing more than the pair having a bit of fun with one another. Before long, Danis put his shirt back on and sat down to resume the podcast.

Dillon Danis Looks Back on His Viral Arrest Video

During their lengthy conversation, Dillon Danis addressed a viral video of him being choked out by a bouncer after failing to get into a nightclub. Danis had forgotten his ID and attempted to Google himself to gain entry. When that didn’t work, Danis attempted to throw a punch leading the bouncer to take him down and wrap him up until local authorities arrived.

“There’s six guys, right? I say, ‘Yo, listen, no one touch me and we’re not gonna have a problem.’ So the guy goes like this to me, ‘What happens if I do touch you?’…I throw a punch, I hit the guy… And I’m one leg on crutches and there are two guys on my arm and two guys are trying to take me down, they can’t take me down,” Danis explained.

“He [the bouncer] jumps on my back and the cops come at this point and the cops are in front of me and they’re like, ‘Stop resisting.’ I don’t know who’s behind me, I think it’s a cop and I’m drunk and I’m on percosets… I thought it was a cop [instead of the bouncer] until I saw the footage… That’s why in the video I’m not fighting back.“

Dillon Danis recently revealed during his appearance on The MMA Hour that the knee injuries he had suffered around the same timeframe had him drowning his sorrows in alcohol and contemplating taking his own life.

Tyson Fury not taking Francis Ngannou seriously ahead of boxing match mocking him

Former UFC middleweight champion, Michael Bisping, discusses the upcoming Francis Ngannou Vs. Tyson Fury fight.

Fury and Ngannou are set to square-off on October 28 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in what will be a ten round boxing exhibition. Ngannou is undoubtedly a hard hitter, and many are happy that he is line for a significant amount of money, but a fairy tale ending is highly unlikely.

Fury is a generational talent, he’s big, tough, hard hitting and moves like a man half his size – Ngannou posses several levels bellow and stands little chance. Fury will likely play with him and with rumours of him recently signing a fight with Oleksandr Usyk accentuates his feeling of fearlessness of Ngannou’s skills.

Michael Bisping talks Tyson Fury vs. Francis Ngannou

Talking via his YouTube channel, UFC commentator Bisping spoke on the upcoming matchup. ‘The Count’ concluded that Fury is ‘mocking’ his opponent and does not feel that ‘The Gypsy King’ is not taking his next test seriously.  

“He is mocking him,” Bisping began. “He does not take him seriously, he does not respect the threat of Francis Ngannou one little bit. Why do I say that? It’s pretty simple. He’s already booked his next fight against Oleksandr Usyk, who is the next-best heavyweight on planet Earth. (H/T MMAFighting)

“He’s taking the piss. He doesn’t give him any credit whatsoever. Well, listen. Ngannou’s not a boxer. He’s a mixed martial artist,” Bisping continued. “We know that. He’s not as tall, he’s not as fast, he’s not as skilled. But the man can bang and he can knock people out and I’m telling you, is Tyson Fury making a massive mistake here? Because in the fight game, they always say, ‘Never look past your opponent. Never underestimate your opponent. Always expect the best version of them.’”

In 2019, Dillon Danis appeared to be on the cusp of a successful mixed martial arts career.

After making a name for himself as a world-class BJJ specialist, Dillon Danis moved from the mat to the cage and scored back-to-back first-round submissions under the Bellator banner. Things appeared to be full steam ahead for Danis, but a series of devastating knee injuries derailed everything.

As a result, Danis found himself in an incredibly dark place. During an appearance on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani, Danis revealed that during his recovery, Danis regularly drowned his sorrows with alcohol and contemplated whether or not his life was still one worth living.

“It got to the point where I didn’t know if I was going to be alive again,” Danis said. “There’s a lot of people with a lot more problems than me. You go from training, being so good, and then just sitting there in a cast, can’t move, don’t know if you’re ever going to be the same. Twice in the same year. You get into a dark place. You start drinking, you do bad things. And then all you do is just drink all day” (h/t MMA News).

Dillon Danis’ New Lease on Life

In recent years, Dillon Danis has seemingly found a new lease on life by becoming one of social media’s most prominent trolls. That reputation has landed him an opportunity to compete for the first time in more than four years on October 14. Danis is scheduled to make his boxing debut against WWE Superstar Logan Paul as part of Misfits Boxing’s ‘The PRIME Card’ in Manchester.

Determined to make the most of the opportunity, Danis put his skills to work by launching an all-out online attack on Paul and his fiancee, Danish swimsuit model Nina Agdal. In August, Danis saw his social media numbers skyrocket as a result, with an insane two billion impressions and more than doubling his follower count. Unfortunately, Danis may have taken things a little too far, prompting Agdal to file a lawsuit against Danis for allegedly violating state and federal ‘revenge porn’ laws.

Despite the pending litigation, everything continues to be full steam ahead when it comes to his clash with Logan Paul later this month.

X-Rated OnlyFans boxer Elle Brooke concerned that a crazed fan may try to clone her

Elle Brooke

With all the advancements in genetics and DNA manipulation, influencer Elle Brooke can’t help but wonder what some of her fans are really up to when they come calling for her dirty laundry.

And we literally mean dirty laundry.

The 3-1 boxer recently revealed that one avid fan was on the hunt for her sweaty gym clothes. The sweatier the better. The request had Brooke questioning why someone would even want something so unhygienic. Naturally, she came to the most logical conclusion; someone might be trying to make their own Elle Brooke.

“Some guy wanted to buy sweaty clothes, to the point where you could ring them out. Like training gear, socks, anything like that. I was just like oh man, that’s a bit unhygienic cause I work out really hard,” Brooke told OnlyAccounts.io. “I always think, what if someone wants to clone me? Elle Brooke vs. Elle Brooke? Or make it a tag team with four of us? I’d love to do a tag team with my sister. I sparred her recently.”

The sale of ring-used gear and undergarments has been a lucrative business for quite some time but with the emergence of fans desperate to get their hands on the bath water and sweat of their favorite celebs and online personalities, one can’t help but wonder what the endgame is.

Elle Brooke Exposes Kyngpin Boxing’s Shady Tactics

Elle Brooke last competed in July under the Kyngpin Boxing banner in Dublin. Brooke fell to fellow influencer Jully Oliveira at the event, suffering her first loss as a pugilist. Following the fight, Elle Brooke revealed that the embattled fight promotion practically ghosted its fighters following their inaugural card in April.

“Between the first and the second Kingpyn tournament show, no fighter had any communication from the owners until two weeks before the fight,” Brooke said. “We were all messaging each other like, ‘What the f*ck is going on?’ Even the amazing event staff and the social media team were in the dark. None of us knew what the f*ck was happening.

“We were then told that the first event didn’t do well at all and that the investors had pulled out and it was likely that this show wasn’t even gonna happen. Days later we were told the event could still happen but on the condition it was on DAZN and that we would be paid on a revenue-share basis.”

Two weeks prior to the event, Kyngpin Boxing was bankrupt and ready to pull the plug before DAZN came along and offered them an opportunity to keep the lights on.

“Of course, all the fighters were pissed off about this, we’ve been working our asses off for months and months and we wanted to fight,” Brooke continued. “We were backed up in a corner to accept if we wanted to fight and most of us did. We have been training for months and months. You don’t know the amount of hard work that goes into the back of a fight.

“The owners knew that the investors had pulled out days after the first tournament show. They waited until two weeks prior to the second tournament show to tell us that the investors had pulled out. And this is after all the fighters had been training months and they had promoted the show” (h/t MMA Mania).

No additional Kyngpin Boxing events have been announced beyond the July card at 3Arena.

Francis Ngannou looks like a zero fight novice Tyson Fury fight no chance Carl Froch boxing UFC

Slated to make his professional boxing debut later this month in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, former undisputed UFC heavyweight champion, Francis Ngannou has saw his skills and abilities compated to that of a “zero fight novice” ahead of his boxing match with WBC titleholder, Tyson Fury.

Ngannou, a former undisputed heavyweight champion under the banner of the UFC, will make his first venture into professional boxing later this month in the Middle East – taking on Morecambe native, Fury over the course of 10 rounds in a professional boxing.

Sidelined from active competition since January of last year, Cameroonian striker, Francis Ngannou most recently turned in a unanimous decision win over former interim heavyweight champion, Ciryl Gane in the main event of UFC 270 to successfully unify the championships.

Francis Ngannou likely has no chance according to Carl Froch

And whilst receiving backing from the likes of former two-time heavyweight champion and past-foe, Stipe Miocic to go out and shock the world with a win over Fury, Ngannou’s ability has been cast into severe doubt by another former world championship winner, Carl Froch.

“(Tyson) Fury’s not going to be worried about getting hit by that monstrous punch because I’ve seen (Francis) Ngannou on the pads and he looks terrible,” Carl Froch said during an interview with Best Gambling Sites. “He looks like what I’d expect a zero fight novice to look like. Slow, awkward, stiff. How is he going to get near Fury? He’s going to get his head absolutely peppered off.”

As for Fury, the undefeated WBC heavyweight champion has already put pen to paper on an official contract to make a return to the ring potentially just eight weeks after his fight with Ngannou, booking an undisputed heavyweight championship fight with fellow decorated gold holder, Oleksandr Usyk in the Middle East to boot.
