After months of online beef, Dillon Danis taunts Paige VanZant for failing to beat OF boxer Elle Brooke in Misfits title fight
Dillon Danis and Paige VanZant's online feud continues to escalate. Following VanZant's draw with Elle Brooke at Misfits Boxing 15, Danis wasted no time in taking a jibe at her performance.
VanZant, a former UFC fighter making her professional boxing debut, battled Brooke, an OnlyFans model, to a split draw this past weekend. While VanZant displayed grit by recovering from a first-round knockdown, the outcome wasn't enough to silence her online critic.
Danis, a jiu-jitsu black belt and occasional MMA fighter known for his trash talk, took to his social media platform to mock VanZant's performance.
Taking to his X handle, 'El Jefe' posted a clip of the first-round knockdown and wrote:
"“Real fighter” dropped by a p*rn star 🤷♂️😂"
Check out the post below:
VanZant, who boasts a mixed record in MMA (8-5) and bare-knuckle boxing (0-2), now adds a draw to her professional boxing resume. Brooke, meanwhile, retains her Misfits Boxing middleweight title after defeating VanZant and previously knocking out AJ Bunker in January.
The online war between Dillon Danis and Paige VanZant
This wasn't the first time Dillon Danis has targeted Paige VanZant. The two have exchanged barbs online for months.
The feud ignited after VanZant criticized Danis' lack of success in the boxing ring during a Misfits Boxing interview. She specifically referenced his disqualification loss to Logan Paul in Oct. 2023. VanZant stated:
"Dillon Danis is not a fighter. He's not a fair comparison."
Danis retaliated on social media, hinting at a past romantic connection with VanZant and implying she held a grudge for not being chosen as his wife.
VanZant wasn't backing down. In a scathing Instagram video, she refuted Danis' claims, implying their sole 'Vegas encounter' happened at a UFC function where Danis made an inappropriate sexual request. She further mocked his lack of fighting credentials and suggested he was attempting to leverage the situation for a fight with her husband, Bellator fighter Austin Vanderford.

Danis later went on to post NSFW images of '12 Gauge' and again aimed the former UFC contender with another inflammatory post.
