Dillon Danis claims that neither he nor Logan Paul have been drug tested
Dillon Danis is set to make his boxing debut against Logan Paul this weekend at the AO Arena in Manchester.
Danis vs. Paul is the co-main event on the MF x DAZN: The Prime Card, with the pay-per-view also featuring KSI vs. Tommy Fury.
In the build-up to their fight, Danis has regularly accused Paul of taking steroids and using performance-enhancing drugs. ‘The Maverick’ has denied Danis’ claims, but ‘El Jefe’ has remained stern in his belief and even claimed today that neither he nor Paul had been drug tested for their bout.
Mark Hunt labels Dana White a ‘sc*mbag’ following UFC-USADA split
Former UFC heavyweight Mark Hunt has weighed in on the news that the UFC will end its working relationship with USADA from January 1, 2024.
‘The Super Samoan’ previously filed a lawsuit against the UFC, Dana White and Brock Lesnar, following his loss to Lesnar in 2016. ‘The Beast Incarnate’ tested positive for PED’s after their fight.
Given that he has invested a lot of time fighting the UFC in a battle about performance-enhancing drugs, it is no surprise that Mark Hunt has commented on the MMA promotion’s recent split with USADA.
The 49-year-old made three posts on Instagram calling out Dana White. In one of the posts, he labeled White a "sc*mbag".
Fans react after Israel Adesanya confirms UFC hiatus
Israel Adesanya has confirmed that he’s taking a significant leave of absence from MMA.
His decision comes after his shocking defeat to Sean Strickland at UFC 293, where he was convincingly defeated 4-1 across all three judges’ scorecards.
During a recent episode of The Rock podcast, Adesanya outlined his intention of stepping away from fighting to "look after himself". He said:
"Now I’m going to take time to look after myself, and I’m not going to fight for a long time. I’m definitely not going to retire because I know me – I’m not leaving like that. I’m going to heal myself up. You won’t see me fight for a long time."
