Dillon Danis leaks photo showing cut and black eye Logan Paul suffered from press conference microph
Logan Paul has kept his face covered in recent days.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer took a microphone to his head after launching a bottle of PRIME at Dillon Danis during their pre-fight press conference on Thursday.
A small cut on his face was visible when he exited the stage, and it left many people, including Jake Paul, concerned that his first fight since an exhibition bout with Floyd Mayweather in 2021 could fall through.
‘The Maverick’ covered his eyes when posting a subsequent selfie to assure fans he will be fine to face Danis at the AO Arena in Manchester on Saturday night.
A day later, Paul wore a balaclava for his ceremonial weigh-in, creating more intrigue about the extent of the injuries he suffered during Danis’ mic attack.
It seemed fans wouldn’t get a glimpse of his face until moments before the fight, but his rival has now leaked a picture showing Paul sporting a black eye and a cut right cheek.
