In an interview, Logan Paul says he thinks Conor McGregor is an average MMA fighter. Logan Paul thinks Dillon Danis may have gone too far with his social media antics ahead of their upcoming boxing match, and also laid out a plan for a potential fight against former two-division UFC champion, Conor McGregor.

Paul, a YouTuber-turned-boxer and WWE Superstar, is scheduled to face Danis in the co-main event of Misfits Boxing’s “The PRIME Card,” which is set to take place Oct. 14 at AO Arena in Manchester, England, and streams on DAZN pay-per-view. The bout is scheduled for six, three-minute rounds, and it will be contested at 195 pounds.

The build to the fight has been heated, personal, and physical. Online, Danis has launched attacks directed at Paul and his finance Nina Agdal, typically posting pictures of her with other men. At the pre-fight news conference, things turned physical after tables were flipped and items were thrown. After things broke down, security kept the two men separated and their faceoff was canceled.

“I think he has gone too far,” Paul told Misfits Boxing. “It’s not affected me, no, because when I entered this fight, I knew Dillon was a scumbag. I didn’t think he’d take it as far as he did, but you know, actions have consequences. I think he’s going to get what’s coming to him. I think the people online are speaking for me. Me and my girl don’t have to defend ourselves or try to prove our love for the world. … He’s a good Twitter troll. But again, he’s going to pay for it.”

Danis’ close friend and training partner Conor McGregor has also made his voice heard in the lead into the upcoming boxing match, but has also not directly replied to Paul’s callouts online.

“I’d like to see him attempt to slap the nose off my face,” Paul said when asked about a threatening quote from McGregor. “Conor McGregor’s an average MMA fighter and a horrible boxer. I’m going to beat the sh*t out of his b*tch Dillon, and then I’m going to beat the sh*t out of him.

“But he ghosted me, bro. He won’t even bet $1 million on his fighter. That’s chump change for a guy like Conor. He won’t even bet $1 million on Dillon. He had nothing to say when I called him out on Twitter. Do you think he’s going to step in there himself? I don’t know, it feels unlikely.”#loganpaul
