Here is all you need to know about Austin Vanderford husband of MMA fighter Paige VanZant including their marriage, kids and his fight record and net worth
Dillon Danis persistently blogged about Logan Paul’s fiancee before their fight last year, and now he’s shifted his focus to the former UFC and bare-knuckle boxing star Paige VanZant.
In a recent interview with Misfits Boxing, ’12 Gauge’ spoke about MMA veterans’ challenges in the boxing ring. Regarding Danis’ boxing debut, a DQ (Disqualification) loss to Logan Paul in October 2023, VanZant stated, “Dillon Danis is not a fighter. He’s not a fair comparison.”
Danis responded with a tweet, claiming that they had affairs and that she is resentful against him since he did not marry her. “Don’t make me bring up our two trips to Vegas and ruin your marriage,” he said.
