DILLON DANIS has accused Logan Paul of \u201cmissing weight\u201d and \u201cchanging rules\u201d ahead of their highly-anticipated showdown.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The grudge match between the two stars is set to be the co-headline bout in Manchester on Saturday night along with KSI versus Tommy Fury.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

But after an explosive pre-fight press conference last night, MMA star Danis claimed it should be off as he tweeted: \u201cLogan Paul just missed weight.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Paul, 28, quickly hit back at those claims by Danis by showing a clip of himself on the scales that showed his weight at 194.3lbs in a social media post at 11:41am.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old Danis then vented his fury by posting this lengthy statement: \u201cThe commission's rules state that weigh-ins are between 10 and 11. If you miss the 11 o'clock deadline, you've missed weight.<\/p>\n

\u201cI weighed in at 10:15, but Logan still hasn't. The commission said that if he doesn't arrive by the 11am deadline, the fight is off.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe missed the weight, but then called misfits and changed the rules to give himself an extra hour.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe should be on an even playing field, he shouldn't get special treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Danis then claimed: \u201cHe\u2019s already got more juice than Tropicana. He missed the weight, plain and simple. They\u2019re trying to handicap me as much as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Danis then took to X, formerly known as Twitter, again to say: \u201cHe claims he made weight, but it doesn't count. The rules are the rules.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf he wants to be viewed as a genuine boxer, he needs to follow the 11 o'clock deadline.<\/p>\n

\u201cLook at the time he posted. It's not fair; I had to follow the rules, and he isn't an exception.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Danis\u2019 statements, Sun Sport understands that there was no 11am deadline for this showdown.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Paul\u2019s younger brother Jake, 26, had earlier tweeted to state that he would step in.<\/p>\n

The 7-1 boxer posted: \u201cI will always have my brother\u2019s back.<\/p>\n

\u201cI chose not to respond to the puppet\u2019s countless tweets as it would only amplify his harassment.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut make no mistake, if Logan needed me to step in, I would take great joy in knocking that maggot out. See you soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

That was after his elder sibling revealed his swollen face after being attacked by Danis in a chaotic pre-fight press conference.<\/p>\n

Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis: All the details you need ahead of huge bout <\/strong><\/p>\n

An explosive brawl left YouTuber-turned WWE star Paul gushing with blood on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The pair had just finished trash-talking on stage when Paul, who has a 0-1-2 record, hurled a bottle of his Prime drink at Danis' nether regions.<\/p>\n

Danis hit back by swiping a microphone at his rival\u2019s head as security tried to separate them.<\/p>\n

Paul was left clutching his face after the sickening thud of the impact cut open his cheek, with Danis then posting a picture of blood on the floor at the venue and captioned it with: \u201cPlay with fire get burnt p***y.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mams Taylor, KSI's manager and co-owner of Misfits Boxing, was initially unable to provide an update on the American\u2019s health status after the shock incident.<\/p>\n

However, Paul took to social media to seemingly reassure fans that the highly-anticipated bout was still on despite the damage he suffered.<\/p>\n

He firstly tweeted: \u201cThis Saturday we catching a predator.\u201d<\/p>\n

The much-maligned star then shared a selfie on Instagram of himself wearing dark goggles above the huge swelling and cut on his left cheek that he captioned with: \u201cCan\u2019t see the haterz.\u201d<\/p>\n
