CLEVELAND, OHIO: The ongoing conflict between Logan Paul and Dillon Danis, which initially began as typical trash talk, has now reached a point where Danis is facing a lawsuit for alleged harassment.
The 30-year-old former Bellator fighter has been bombarding Paul with horrible trolls in an attempt to get into his mind ahead of their long-anticipated fight on October 14.
It is common for fighters to take their fights out of the ring with trash talk and mind games but Danis’ actions hit a new low on Tuesday, September 20 when he posted a half-naked picture of Paul’s fiancee, Nina Agdal.
In the picture, the former Victoria's Secret model is captured wearing a G-string bathing suit that left little to the imagination.
Danis posted the image on X, formerly known as Twitter, along with the caption "Morning" and a sun emoji, which he has been using throughout his incessant trolling.
His post came just one day after he was finally served with papers in her harassment lawsuit against him.
How did the feud between Logan Paul and Dillon Danis begin?
It all began in December 2020 when Paul interrupted Danis as he was recording an episode of 'Food Truck Diaries' and called him "Conor McGregor's little b***h" before throwing toilet paper and water balloons at him, according to Daily Mail.
Since then, the YouTuber-turned-boxer and his brother Jake Paul have been publically feuding with Brazilian jiu-jitsu specialists
The feud apparently escalated after a fight between Danis and 'The Problem Child' fell through and Jake instead fought former MMA champion Ben Askren.
Amid the feud, it was announced that Paul would face Danis in a showdown later in the year.
Following the announcement, Paul has shared videos of himself challenging McGregor, Danis' training partner, to a bet of $1 million that he will "beat his boy."
After the UFC star ignored his bet, the 28-year-old influencer made a second attempt to get his attention by doubling the wager.
In response, Danis made his wager, stating that if he were to win, Paul had to make him his best man at his wedding.
Why did Dillon Danis start trolling Logan Paul’s fiancee?
Dillon Danis began trolling Logan Paul's fiancee, Nina Agdal, as part of an ongoing feud with Logan Paul. The feud between Paul and Danis took a sinister turn when the MMA resorted to using attacks on a third-party woman, Paul's fiancee Agdal, to target his rival.
He began trolling the Danish model by sharing her pictures with her ex-boyfriends including Leonardo DiCaprio. The ‘Titanic’ actor dated Agdal for nearly a year before calling it off in 2017.
Before dating Paul, Agdal also shared a romantic relationship with Maroon 5's Adam Levine, The Wanted singer Max George, and Christie Binkley's son Jack Brinkley-Cook.
Previously, Danis also claimed that he has explicit pictures of the former Victoria's Secret model. "I just got another absolute nuke of a pic of Nina this one might be worse than the other one wow this girl is actually wild," he posted on Twitter.
"Logan on a man level you need to call this marriage off now," he continued. On August 28, Danis escalated the trolling when he shared an X-rated video of Agdal discussing her s*xual cravings.
"By the way, I'm very proud of myself because this is the longest I've gone without s*x since I've started. Obviously, it's driving me crazy. I am struggling, I need penis inside of me, ASAP," she said in the video.
"So if any of you guys know a good d**k that doesn't have STDs on it. I'll take it, right here," the model concluded.
In response to Danis’ explicit posts, Paul claimed that he had enough dirt on Danis and his family to retaliate but insisted he wouldn't stoop that low.
"I love this girl so f*****g much, [the relationship] is so much stronger," Paul said on his 'Impaulsive' podcast.
"Nothing will get between us, not some fake internet troll. His life has devolved into being a pretend fighter. He's attacking an uninvolved third party, a woman. That's all he has and I get it, all is fair in love and war. The amount of dirt I have on him sitting in my phone, but do I want to go there?"
Nina Agdal files lawsuit against Dillon Danis
On Monday, September 18, Danis was finally served with lawsuit paper outside his apartment building in Jersey City, New Jersey.
In a video obtained by TMZ, the server is seen saying "I have a document for you, Mr Danis," as he attempted to hand the envelope to Danis.
But, Danis attempted to dodge the server, responding "That's not me." Danis refuses to take the envelope and brushes off the man as he enters the building.
The process server is told he cannot enter the building, so instead places the envelope on the floor. Danis has been deceiving process servers in inventive ways for days, including claiming to be in North Korea.
Adgal filed a lawsuit against Danis on September 6, alleging that she had suffered “humiliation, emotional distress, and reputational harm” in the wake of Danis’ harassment online.
The model claimed that a post that Danis made on August 11 was allegedly illegal under both federal and state law. She alleges that the post included a graphic photo of her from a "romantic encounter" she had with a person more than ten years prior.
The lawsuit further alleged that Danis, or an associate of Danis “hacked” her Snapchat account to unearth an old video that has since been shared to millions of views on Twitter.
Adgal is seeking unspecified damages but no less than $150,000 per violation of the federal law prohibiting the sharing of intimate images.
Additionally, she requested a restraining order, which was granted temporarily along with an order prohibiting Danis from publishing any information about her that was "obtained without consent" or "sexually explicit photographs" of her.
