Dillon Danis has claimed that DAZN 'pulled' his planned entrance for his match against Logan Paul over fears of a lawsuit.
Danis will take on Paul in a boxing grudge match on tonight's Misfits Boxing Prime card.
It is one of the two main events on the card, with the Paul vs Danis clash preceding the bout between KSI and Tommy Fury.

Much of the build-up for Paul vs Danis has revolved around the latter's tweets towards Danish model Nina Agdal, who is Paul's fiancee.
Danis has relentlessly taunted Agdal on X (Twitter) and posted photos and videos of her to the platform, as well as mocking her past.
According to TMZ, Agdal has filed a lawsuit against the 30-year-old MMA fighter, and has also filed for a restraining order against him.

In the suit, Agdal says that Danis has wrote 'despicable' things about her on more than 250 occasions, and that she has suffered 'humiliation, emotional distress and reputational harm' as a result
She is in attendance in the AO Arena at Manchester, having been spotted walking in alongside Paul earlier today.
And Danis has claimed that his entrance plans were 'pulled' by DAZN, citing a 'fear of a lawsuit'.
Taking to X (Twitter), Danis posted: "DAZN pulled my big entrance pop in fear of a lawsuit complete bulls***."

The pre-fight press conference saw things get heated between the two fighters, with Danis hitting Paul in the head with a microphone during their face-off.
That left the WWE star bleeding, and he took to Twitter afterwards to simply state: "This Saturday we catching a Predator."
