Dillon Danis appears to be preparing for a return to the cage. Following his boxing loss to Logan Paul and his release from Bellator, Danis is actively searching for opponents for a comeback fight.
However, he has claimed that several notable fighters, including Nate Diaz, Darren Till, Jorge Masvidal, Mike Perry, and Anthony Pettis, have turned down his offers for an MMA fight. Most of these fighters have chosen to pursue boxing matches or other combat sports, which, according to Danis, places him at a disadvantage.
Interestingly, Mike Perry, who was previously connected to a potential MMA fight with Danis under the Misfits Boxing banner, has expressed interest in facing Danis in any combat sport. Perry believes he could defeat Danis in MMA, boxing, or even bare-knuckle boxing.
In a series of social media posts, he wrote:
“I’m really bout it and the rest not, [Dillon Danis] I beat you every ruleset any day of the year, #mma #Bkfc #Boxing #Dbx @MamsTaylor what we trying to do ?”
Fans wasted no time responding to Perry’s challenge, with many mocking Danis. One fan wrote:
“But his face is so punchable... why deprive Mike of scratching that itch?”
Others criticized Danis’ ability, with one saying:
“Mike don't waste your platform mentioning that fake fighter.”
“I mean this guy doesn’t deserve any shot whatsoever. If anything he needs to come fight in dirty boxing and that needs to be his last shot at fighting tbh unless he actually shows out.”

Dillon Danis' lawyers quit Nina Agdal case following payment overdue
Dillon Danis faces another setback in his legal battle with Logan Paul’s fiancee Nina Agdal as his lawyers have withdrawn from the case due to nonpayment. Agdal is suing Danis for reputational harm related to comments he made leading up to his boxing match with Logan Paul in late 2023.
Mark Berman, the lead attorney from the firm Hartmann Doherty Rosa Berman & Bulbulia LLP, filed a motion to withdraw from the case, citing Danis’ failure to respond to communications and failure to honor the terms of the retainer agreement.
According to a report by MMA Fighting, the lawyer wrote in the filling:
“I personally like Mr. Danis, I find this case to be an interesting one and I would prefer to continue representing him. However, I cannot do so effectively if he fails to respond to my communications and the firm will not allow me to do so if he fails to comply with the terms of the retainer agreement.”
Berman also highlighted that Danis' nonpayment had become a recurring issue, leading the firm to seek permission from the court to withdraw from the case.
