MMA fighter turned boxer Dillon Danis has declared that he’ll be wearing a Tottenham Hotspur shirt before his fight with Logan Paul this Saturday night.
The news comes amid reports that he’s already looking to his next shameless attempt to swindle money out of children bout and a lucrative showdown with fizzy drink salesman and Arsenal fan KSI.
The 30-year-old Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt has already attempted to get the attention of the notorious Gooner by… pretending bottled water is p*ss and pouring it on an Arsenal kit in an “outrageous” call-out video.
Close confidante and Danis hypeman Conor McGregor offered a bottle of Proper 12 whiskey to act as the urine substitute, but by the time they’d got the camera rolling the whiskey had disappeared and McGregor had passed out on a sofa, while one commenter on the footage observed that:
“Should’ve used a bottle of Prime, mate, though the chemicals in that would’ve probably burnt a hole in the hotel room floor.”
If the mistreatment of a piece of polyester didn’t grind the gears of the punch-swinging streamer then the sudden revelation that the New Jersey-born El Jefe is, in fact, a life-long fan of the North London’s lilywhites is sure to have him fuming – or at least angry enough to get a bunch of mugs to spend a few hundred quid on tickets or streams for another fight in a few months time.
Danis, known for his MMA skills, seems to have had a sudden revelation that he’s a through-and-through Tottenham fan, just in time for his fight with Logan Paul which happens to feature on the undercard to KSI’s bout with Tommy Fury.
“Oh yeah, Dillon a huge fan of the Hot Totham Spurs,” a source within Danis’ close circle of 3.4million Instagram followers told us.
“Ever since he was was kid he’s dreamt of visiting the glittering trophy room of the Spurs at their famous old ground and seeing all the silverware his heroes – Christian Bale, Michael Caine and the guy who thinks he’s Andy Garcia – brought to the club,” we were told.
“The Spurs franchise will DEMOLISH the Premiere League Playoffs and leave Arsenal Gunners begging for the EPL draft to start,” our source said.

Meanwhile, Danis’ opponent on Saturday night, Logan Paul, is said to be taking the latest developments in his stride.
When asked if he was concerned about his upcoming opponent’s skills in the ring on Wednesday afternoon, the 28-year-old Youtuber offered a dismissive assessment to the assembled media:
“Lads, he’s Tottenham.”
