Logan Paul DOUBLES bet with McGregor, as he wagers $2m on Danis fight

Logan Paul DOUBLES bet with Conor McGregor, as he wagers $2m that he will beat Irishman’s team-mate Dillon Danis in boxing match and claims they are both ‘all bark, no bite’

  • Logan Paul is preparing to face Dillon Danis in boxing match on October 14 
  • Conor McGregor’s long-time team-mate is being trained by the Irishman 
  • Paul has offered McGregor a $2million (£1.58m) bet that he will beat Danis 

Logan Paul has doubled his bet with Conor McGregor, offering to put $2million (£1.58m) on the line for his fight with Dillon Danis. 

Danis has been a training partner of the Irishman’s for years and ‘Notorious’ is understood to be helping him to prepare for the clash with the YouTuber-turned-boxer on October 14. 

Earlier this month, Paul floated the idea of a $1m (£791,000) bet but it seemed to fall on deaf ears. 

So the 28-year-old has had a second attempt at grabbing the UFC star’s attention by doubling the wager. 

‘This motherf***** kind of disappoints me, because I grew up really liking Conor McGregor,’ Paul said on Andrew Schultz’s Flagrant podcast.

‘He’s so entertaining, he’s so good. When he fought Floyd [Mayweather], come on, that was like the most exciting sports event ever. 

‘I was pumped for it. And now that we’re kind of, in some weird, roundabout way, crossing paths — or he’s training Dillon and Dillon’s the guy I’m fighting and I have an opportunity to open a dialogue with him — he’s kind of just disappointed me as a superstar. 

‘The way he doesn’t commit to anything, the way he doesn’t back up anything he says. The way he’s all bark, no bite.

‘So bro, I challenged Conor, I was like, ‘You’re going to train Dillon for the fight? OK, I bet you a $1 million. I bet you $1 million that I beat your fighter. Radio silence.’

‘Conor, you know what, I’ll tell you what, I’ll you what Mr. Moneybags, I’m going to make this more interesting for you,’ Paul said. 

‘How about we double it? $2 million. $2 million says I beat your boy Dillon Danis. I know you’re going to see this. I know you’re going to see this clip. You’re coaching him, you’re guiding him, he’s definitely going to show up, right? 

Danis has never boxed professionally and is better known for being controversial online

‘F*** you. Both of you are all bark, no bite. $2 million that says I beat you boy, I will send you the contract tomorrow. He’s not going to respond. All bark, no bite, both of them.’

Danis has taken aim at Paul’s fiancee Nina Agdal in a bitter and personal build-up to the fight. 

He is widely known to be vocal and court controversy on social media and the MMA fighter last competed professionally back in 2019. 

He holds a professional record of 2-0 but has never had a boxing match before, while Paul has entered the ring three times, twice against KSI and once in a lucrative match-up against Floyd Mayweather.
