Nina Agdal and Logan Paul: Who is boxer's fiancee and what is her lawsuit against Misfits' Dillon Danis for? image

As if the boxing bout between Logan Paul and Dillon Danis needed further acrimony, the YouTuber's fiancee, Nina Agdal, has become involved in a spat with his opponent.

Paul and Danis are scheduled to meet on the undercard of Tommy Fury's fight with KSI at Manchester Arena on October 14.

Agdal is likely to be particularly keen for Paul to win because of a fiery build-up in which Danis has repeatedly targeted her.

What's the story between Agdal and Danis? Here's what we know, as well as a profile of influencer Paul's fiancee.

Nina Agdal and Logan Paul: What's happened with Dillon Danis?

Court documents filed on September 6 showed that Agdal submitted a lawsuit against MMA fighter Danis for "revenge porn".

The complaint claims that 30-year-old Danis posted a "sexually explicit photograph" of her that was taken without her consent.

Filed in the District Court for the District of New Jersey, the suit requests a temporary restraining order against Danis, a preliminary injunction to stop him from posting more photos or videos and an eventual permanent restraining order.

Judge Madeline Cox Arleo granted Agdal the temporary restraining order pending further litigation the day after it was filed.

Agdal claimed two counts of disclosure of an intimate image and one of invasion of privacy, pointing to the revenge porn statute in the U.S., known as the Violence Against Women Act Reauthorization from 2022, and a New Jersey statute against invasion of privacy.

Attorneys Joseph B. Shumofsky and Linxuan Yan, of Sills Cummins & Gross PC, said Danis had posted to "millions of social media users" as part of a "relentless, ongoing campaign of cyber harassment and bullying" against Agdal.

The explicit photo was taken during a "romantic encounter" more than 10 years ago without Agdal's consent, according to the complaint.

It also alleged that Danis had deleted the post at the request of promoters Misfits Boxing after a threat that his bout with Paul would be cancelled if he failed to do so. Agdal is seeking at least $150,000.

Nina Agdal Danis case: What has Dillon Danis said?

In a response to ESPN two days after the suit was filed, Danis said: "I will beat Logan and this case. The biggest comeback in sports history."

The outlet said that Paul's team had declined to comment on the suit and Agdal's legal team did not immediately respond to their request for comment.

When Paul confronted him about the controversy at a press conference, Danis remained silent. He continues to troll Paul and Agdal but has cut down on the photos.

Who is Logan Paul's fiancee Nina Agdal?

Born in the Danish village of Hillerod, 31-year-old Agdal was already signed to a modelling agency by the time she moved to the U.S. after graduating from college.

She is a regular model for outlets such as Sports Illustrated and has almost two million followers on Instagram, where her biography reads: "Fitness, health coaching, nutrition."

Agdal began dating Paul in 2022 and the pair made their engagement public on the platform in July 2023 when they shared a photo of Paul proposing on one knee.

Accompanying the snap from Lake Como in Italy, Paul said he was now "engaged to my best friend". You turned me into a puddle," he added, sharing the full video on his hugely popular YouTube channel.

Paul, 28, rose to fame as a YouTube personality before turning that into a combat sports career, which has included an exhibition boxing match against Floyd Mayweather and several high-profile WWE professional wrestling matches.
