Danis was involved in a brawl with Islam Makhachev’s team before the start of the main card at the UFC PPV. The MMA star was escorted out of the building after the incident and Dana White also blamed Danis for the brawl.

However, things could take a turn for the worse if Logan Paul is to be believed. The WWE star and streamer was speaking to Adin Ross and shared what he thought Danis was going to do:

Paul was asked why Danis was suing the pair and who was in the wrong for that incident. The WWE star and streamer responded:

“His argument will be that when he went to Madison Square Garden, he didn’t expect to be jumped by 10 guys. If you notice, he is going through all the concussion protocols, he actually didn’t show up to a deposition and blamed his concussion protocol. He pulled out of his fight [Misfits Boxing on December 20], so he is going to be able to claim damages if he has a real concussion.”

Paul ended by suggesting that Danis wasn’t faking the injury and could win his case:

“He probably does [have a concussion]…he is very likely going to sue them and probably win“

The brawl took place in the seating section of the arena, and one of the big names captured beating Danis was Magomed Zaynukov.

Danis was openly blamed for this incident as well by Islam Makhachev’s coach, Javier Mendez. The coach claimed that Danis was taunting the Russian fighter’s team with AI images, which didn’t sit well with the group and led to the brawl.
