Below is the original version prior to the update provided by Logan Paul at 3:18 PM ET
The volatility building between Logan Paul and Dillon Danis finally burst as Paul and Danis each flung objects at each other. Danis was struck in the midsection by a water bottle and returned the favor by ejecting a microphone toward Paul’s head. This comes just two days ahead of their scheduled boxing match at the Misfits Boxing pre-fight press conference.

Security rushed to keep them separated as Danis charged Paul, ready to throw down, two days before prior to their scheduled fight. Members of the security team had to continue pushing Danis backward as he tried to get at Paul before everyone ultimately cleared the stage.
🚨| Logan Paul may be forced to pull out of his fight with Dillon Danis this weekend due to a cut opened up across his eye after he was hit with an unknown object during his altercation with Danis at todays press conference.
