Danis and Paul have been involved in an incredibly personal feud since their dust-up was announced in August.
Brazilian jiu-jitsu ace Danis has continuously taunted Paul's fiancee, Nina Agdal on social media.
And just last month, Agdal filed a restraining order against Danis, who Paul has promised will be punished for his actions in the ring.
Things only escalated at the pre-fight press conference, with Danis CUTTING Paul in an on-stage attack.
Misfits' latest show promises to be another wild event filled with thrills and spills.

What's been said?
Logan Paul said: “Almost two years after fighting the greatest boxer of all time, I am so pumped to return to the boxing ring on October 14, for this monster Misfits show.
"Manchester, I hope you are ready for a night you will never forget, because The Prime Card is delivering in a big way, with KSI and I on either side of a double main event.
"The world has seen the energy, athleticism and showmanship I've brought to WWE, but this October I plan on reminding everyone that I can bring it to boxing too."
Dillon Danis said: "I couldn't care less what Logan Paul has done in the WWE, because when he is in the boxing ring, he is in a completely different world.
"It's a world of pain, a world where he doesn't have control and it's my world, not his. On October 14, in Manchester, Logan Paul is getting beat down.”

SunSport's prediction
Despite Danis being a lifelong martial artist, his striking leave little to be desired.
Add to that the fact Danis has never boxed competitively and the odds are very much stacked against him.
