    Dillon Danis plans to confront Conor McGregor after UFC legend poses for pictures with rivals Jake and Logan Paul

    DILLON DANIS admits he needs to have words with Conor McGregor for posing with rivals Jake and Logan Paul. Danis – a long-time friend and training partner of McGregor’s – has been feuding with the Paul brothers for years. Dillon Danis with friend and training partner Conor McGregorJake and Logan Paul posed for pictures with Conor McGregorCredit: Instagram @JakepaulHe once had toilet roll chucked on him by Jake and his boxing bout in 2023 against Logan ended up in a legal battle. So when McGregor took pictures with the brothers at Donald Trump’s inauguration in January – Danis was conflicted. He told SunSport: “Yeah, me and him had to talk about that, you know, it is what it is.”I know you guys can decide that, but I think that me and him should talk about that.READ MORE IN BOXING”It shouldn’t be in the media but we haven’t had the chance to talk about it yet.”McGregor, 36, had both Pauls by his side in pictures that sent social media into a frenzy. But footage shared by the brothers later revealed there was heated exchanges with the Irishman. Danis, 31, made his boxing debut against Logan, 29, two years ago but farcically got disqualified after attempting an MMA-style submission. Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSBut the fight did not end there as a brawl broke out in the ring while legal proceedings are now ongoing in court. Danis was sued by Logan’s fiancee Nina Agdal for “revenge porn” with his posts causing “humiliation, emotional distress, and reputational harm.” KSI sparks carnage on press conference stage after slapping Dillon Danis with a PANCAKE ahead of boxing grudge fightAccording to the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey in 2023, Danis engaged in a “relentless, ongoing campaign of cyber harassment and bullying” directed towards Agdal.The lawsuit alleges that Danis used his social media to “promote the fight and ramp up his feud with Paul.”Danis also allegedly posted “hundreds of posts containing vulgar and disparaging pictures, memes and comments about her.“All the while, Danis has been rewarded for that same conduct through an increased social media following and publicity that has resulted in his offensive posts being viewed more than two billion times to date.”Agdal received a temporary restraining order directing Danis to stop posting “sexually explicit photographs” of her “on the internet without her consent.” In her complaint, she also alleges that he posted a sexually explicit photograph which was never meant to be shared publicly or was “obtained without consent.”A judge granted Agdal the restraining order against Danis, who was forbidden from posting “sexually explicit photographs” of Agdal without her permission.The lawsuit is ongoing – as is Danis’ fight with Logan’s business partner KSI on March 29 – but the American does not regret his actions. He said: “I would regret it if it wasn’t true but everything was on Insta already. Everything was public.”So I mean, I can’t speak too much on the lawsuit, but I don’t regret saying the truth and letting Logan out.”I was trying to help him out and one day he’s gonna thank me, so it is what it is.”Danis was originally set to fight KSI in January 2023 before pulling out – but three years later they finally settle for score in the ring. And carnage broke out at the press conference when KSI slapped Danis with a PANCAKE to spark a brawl on stage. But Danis said just beforehand “I just feel like he’s not equal to me. “I was saying he’s like a little brother to me, so I don’t know, I don’t really care about the guy.READ MORE SUN STORIES”I’m gonna knock him out and get my money and go and fight Tony.

    I was more nervous to meet my girlfriend’s parents than I was to push BGT golden buzzer or for boxing fights, says KSI

    NOT EVEN fighting in front of thousands of people or being watched by millions on TV can make superstar KSI nervous. No, only meeting his girlfriend’s parents for the first time did that.KSI admits meeting his girlfriend’s parents was more nerve-wracking than boxingCredit: GettyKSI hitting the BGT golden buzzerCredit: ITVHe is a guest judge on the ITV showCredit: ITVThe social media influencer, rapper and boxer has lived more than half his life in the public eye after shooting to fame on YouTube. And his career climbed to new heights after being announced as a guest judge on ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent. KSI pushed his first golden buzzer to automatically send 29-year-old singer Stacey Leadbeatter into the semi-finals. But the new panelist reveals that decision – and boxing in front of sellout crowds – was nothing compared to first meeting his partner’s parents. READ MORE IN BOXINGHe said: “What would I say is more nerve-wracking? I don’t know, meeting my girlfriend’s parents probably was a lot more nerve-wracking than those two events.”Yeah, definitely. Before that, I’m always like sweating and everything. Like I only get nervous when it comes to relationships.”In terms of fighting or in terms of pressing the golden buzzer or in terms of performing in front of thousands, I never get nervous because I just know what I need to do.”I’m prepared and I’m ready, whereas I guess with meeting someone’s parents, you never know what could happen.”Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSDespite his celebrity fame, KSI keeps his girlfriend private and away from the public eye – but he cherishes the time they spend together. The 31-year-old might just have the most packed celebrity schedule of all time, squeezing in TV and charity appearances into his boxing training. KSI sparks carnage on press conference stage after slapping Dillon Danis with a PANCAKE ahead of boxing grudge fightKSI returns to the ring on March 29 in Manchester against old rival Dillon Danis – three years after the collapse of their original bout. By the time KSI laces up the gloves, he would have played in two charity football matches, in Qatar and the Sidemen match at Wembley. That is also after filming for BGT – but how does he fit it all in? KSI laughs and reveals: “Honestly, I don’t know, I just do it. That’s just how I am. I just make it work.”With the Sidemen match at Wembley Stadium, that’s gonna be insane, 90,000 people screaming.”I don’t even think I’m gonna be able to hear myself. I think that’s gonna be good. “I’m seeing it as like a training session, keeping fit, just running around, passing the ball, having a good time with my mates and raising a lot of money for charity.BGT stars Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, KSI and Bruno TonioliCredit: The Mega AgencyKSI poses with his fellow BGT judgesCredit: https://www.instagram.com/stories/noholdenback/3479470000301991191/?hl=enKSI, pictured in the 2022 Sidemen match, will play in this year’s gameCredit: Alamy”During that, I’ve got like a couple shoots here and there, a couple bits here and there just that I need to do but I just make it work.”I find time to train, whether it’s me waking up early, just to find time to train, I do it. That’s just my mentality, that’s how I am.”KSI has not fought since October 2023 when he lost a controversial decision to Tommy Fury, 25, his first defeat in the ring. He was then forced to cancel his August comeback bout after suffering a hand injury – which he has since recovered from. He also had a fight on his hands just to find an opponent after failing to strike a deal with up to FIVE different names. Even ex-Chelsea defender Wayne Bridge, 44, was bizarrely drafted in before promptly pulling out when KSI made reference to his infamous John Terry feud. It forced the KSI camp to go back over old ground and call upon Danis – a controversial MMA fighter known as Conor McGregor’s training partner.

It ended in a farcical sixth-round disqualification after Danis attempted an MMA submission in the ring – sparking a mass brawl. The American attacked Paul’s fiancee Nina Agdal online before the bout and is still being sued by the Danish model. So KSI admits to hesitating when offering Danis another opportunity and payday – but vows to put the feud to bed once and for all.KSI, who slapped Danis with a pancake at their press conference, said: “He was the fourth, fifth choice. It’s not the first person I wanted to fight.”I think at the time, I was happy to fight him because when I was just coming back from boxing it made sense.READ MORE SUN STORIES”And now I guess it’s frustrating to have to platform him but you know there isn’t many options, there just isn’t many options.”So fair play for him saying yes, but I’m going to punish him for all the things he’s done to me.”KSI slapping Danis with a pancake ahead of their fightCredit: PA More
