One more fight
Well our fun is over as far as this fight goes. It’s fair to say it didn’t deliver.
There is one more bout in Manchester if you weren’t aware for some reason.
KSI and Tommy Fury are making their way to the ring.
What’s next for Logan?
“If Dillon puts on all his purse then I’ll do it (an MMA fight).
“But this is a hobby for me. I’m going back to WWE and I want that US title – Rey Mysterio let’s go.“
More from Logan…
“He calls himself a real fighter? What we talking about? Hey Conor McGregor, I took your b*** put him on a leash and took him for a walk.“

“He’s supposed to be good at jiu-jitsu, what happened?
“He tried the takedown I stopped that and I stopped the guillotine.
“Dillon Danis is a coward, just a dirty human being.
“Dealing with a guy like that is not easy. He’s a coward, a true demon.“
It’s official
Logan Paul wins by DQ. We didn’t make it to the end of the fight. Danis was disqualified.
Round 6/6
We have an all out brawl in the ring!
Logan is on the top rope and there are around 30 security in the ring trying to separate the fighters and their corners.
Danis was throwing punches at security – that’s more than he did at Logan Paul.
That was embarrassing.
The fight is over anyway.
Round 5/6
Danis decides to confront Paul in his corner at the end of that fifth round.
Interesting that’s as much aggression as he’s shown in the ring all night.
Paul is told he looks “f***ing incredible” by his corner.
That may be overdoing it a bit but he’s certainly cruised through this.
Round 4/6
Is Danis in here just to try and avoid a KO?
That’s sure what it looks like.
Another easy round for Paul but this is quite laughable from Danis after all the talk.

Smiles from Paul as Danis throws something that resembles a punch.
An easy round for Paul again, and if it continues like this he’ll win easily on points.
But surely, after all the talk in the buildup, we’re not just going to settle for this.
The Manchester crowd is agitated.
Round 2/6
A few jeers and boos from the crowd seem to spark Logan Paul into life.
There was hardly a punch thrown in anger until the last 30 seconds, at which point Paul unloaded and Danis just covered up.
A good round in the end for Paul but Danis can’t take that type of punishment.
Round 1/6
A tight opening round – Danis in the gold trunks looks to be trying to dictate the centre of the ring.
Paul in pink happy to box on the outside and at range.
Round 1 of 6 in the books – it was a close one.

The fighters need security in between them for their final instructions from the referee.
No touch of gloves.
All the talking is over. Here we go. We’re underway in Paul vs Danis!
Anthem boos
Incredibly strange as the US national anthem is performed for both these fighters.
But the Manchester crowd decides to boo it for some unknown reason.
Logan picked up the US flag and waved it in defiance.
This is it
I see Michael Buffer, I hear Michael Buffer.
We’re ready to go.
Logan Paul on his way first with Jake alongside him.
50 Cent – Many Men is the choice of walk-on music.
Still we wait
No movement as of yet. We’re still waiting for the fighters.
It’s going to be a late finish for sure with KSI and Tommy Fury to follow this.
Here we go
We’re seconds away from Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis.
All the talking, the bitterness, the nasty insults, the press conference fights and flying objects…
It’s all been building to this.
Slim wins!
A huge KO in the fourth round from Slim turns this fight on it’s head.
He was being dominated for three rounds but somehow came back and stopped Salt Papi.
A massive win for Slim… and one that clears the path for our big fight.
Final countdown
We’re in round four of five in this Slim vs Salt Papi bout.
Next up is the one we’ve been waiting for.
Logan Paul and Dillon Danis will be going through their final preparations backstage.
Still to come
Salt Papi and Slim are in the ring right now.
This is the last bout before our feature contest between Logan Paul and Dillon Danis.
It won’t be long before we see the rivals in the ring.
Just a scratch
Logan gave a close up of the scrape on his face from the mic that hit him.
It is still there and visible, let’s hope it doesn’t pop open during the fight and ruin this bout.
Logan Paul talking to Ariel Helwani
“Face is feeling good. I call it a scrape. These mics are sharp. He got a nice toss at my face with that mic.
“I reached a zen last night. I forgive him, I forgive Dillon. I’m going to go in there and focus and fight with skill not ego.”
Deen wins
Deen the Great gets the victory by unanimous victory but he was forced to hold on.
He says he had a dislocated elbow, then says Manchester should be renamed ‘Deenchester’.
But in the same sentence he criticised the food in Manchester for having no salt or seasoning.
And he also calls out Ryan Garcia for some reason.
One of the stranger post-fight interviews Ariel Helwani has done.
Fight of the night!
What a sensational bout we just saw.
Deen the Great battered Walid Sharks from pillar to post and had him on the floor twice.
Walid’s corner came close to throwing the towel in, such was the punishment.
But he somehow fought back and had Deen hanging on in the fifth and final round.
