Dillon Danis has claimed he's been offered a huge £4 million to fight YouTuber Jake Paul in a boxing bout.
Jake's brother, Logan, is set to fight KSI in a blockbuster rematch on November 9 in Los Angeles and he's hoping to land a bout against Conor McGregor's teammate.

Jake and Danis have been bickering on social media for some time now with the famous YouTuber challenging the MMA star to a fight.
And it appears a bout is in the works with Danis saying a massive deal is on the table to fight Jake.
"We're still working on the fight with Jake Paul, the boxing fight, so I want that to happen really bad," he revealed on Ariel Helwani's MMA Show.

"In the beginning he called me out - everyone think I called him out, but I wouldn't call out a YouTuber.
"He called me out like he wanted to fight me and this and that and I was kind of like, 'Whatever, I'm not going to fight a YouTuber'.
"And then the money came in to part and I was like 'Maybe I'll just shut this motherf***er up'.
"So I've been thinking about it lately and I'm down to do it, they're offering me $4-$5m for a boxing fight against some p***y that can't even defend himself.

"When I talked to Jake Paul they said the last one they made $8m so they split four between each other.
"But he said obviously this fight will be a lot bigger, so let's do it, and I was like, 'Okay, I'm down'."
Jake has also been linked with a fight against fellow YouTube star AnEsonGib.

Danis, meanwhile, who's 2-0 in MMA, was set to compete at the Abu Dhabi Combat Club (ADCC) grappling competition, but injury has ruled him out of the tournament.
The Bellator welterweight is expected to return to the cage next year.
