In the highly anticipated co-main event, Logan Paul faced MMA fighter Dillon Danis in a six-round heavyweight bout Saturday night at AO Arena in Manchester, England. Paul won by disqualification in the sixth round. Although the fight had its moments, including a few flurries of punches from Paul and a pair of illegal takedown attempts by Danis (the second of which led to the DQ and countless security having to enter the ring to separate the fighters and their teams), the action in the fight was underwhelming. Through five rounds, Danis landed less than 10 punches.
In the main event, YouTuber-turned boxer KSI nearly pulled off a big upset over Tommy Fury. Fury, the half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, won the six-round fight by majority decision. Fury overcame an early point deduction to pick up in the scorecards. He entered the fight with a more extensive boxing record than KSI, and that experience proved enough to help him get the win in a close fight. Prior to this fight, Fury beat Jake Paul, the younger brother of Logan Paul, by split decision in February.
Here’s a recap of all the action from Saturday’s fights:
