Dillon Danis Says He's Appealing His Loss to Logan Paul and the Internet is Giving Him a Worse Beating Than He Took in the Ring

Without a doubt, the best kind of villain is the one who will strike terror in you with just a few words and then prove his menace by backing it up with action. Think Thanos, Hans Gruber, Darth Vader, and so on. 

But a close second is the villain who has a lot to say when he's threatening someone he has power over, but then exposes himself as a laughable, comic fraud by falling to pieces the first time he's faced with a real adversary. Think Count Rugen:

That's what Dillon Danis became with his preposterous non-performance against Logan Paul. Marty Mush said it better than I ever could when he called him an online warrior who fails miserably when it comes to proving it in real life:

But there's a subset of both kinds of villains who are the worst of the lot: The kind who can't accept defeat. Even if it's as complete as the total destruction Danis received in the ring at the end of Paul's fists. And I don't mean where they're driven by some sort of noble spirit where they'll keep fighting their way back because they have no quit in them. Danis proved he has a bottomless cup o' quit in him. I'm talking about the type who won't accept defeat because they lack the character to. Where they're incapable of admitting they've been bested, and instead revert to their default setting of saying how unfair the result was and how the world owes it to them personally to make it all better. Since I guess I've painted myself into a rhetorical corner where I have to come up with a movie example, I'll go with the Dukes Brothers crying "Turn those machines BACK ON!!!" after Louis and Billy Ray used their own greed to ruin them. 

Given what a dirtbag and a coward Dillon Danis has proven to be up to this point, it should come as no surprise to anyone he wants the machines turned back on:

While arguing that everyone's eyes lied to them and Paul ran from him the whole time:

And claiming "he punched me on the ground" while refusing to answer whether he'll honor his agreement to pay Paul his share of the purse if he loses:

Needless to say, this is all blood in the water for the sharks on X. And they didn't pass on the meme feeding frenzy. I'll skip the ones with the dick jokes and just offer up a sample of the highlights:

And my personal favorite:

Ah, Dillon Danis is not undefeated, but the internet still is. 

The best part isn't even the fact he laid on his back in the ring and exposed his soft underbelly like a conquered mammal assuming the submissive pose to its Alpha. It's not even the public shaming. Or the fact this appeal is going to be laughed out of the commission's board room. It's that when all this is said and done, Dillon still has to face a lawsuit from Nina Agdal who's claiming he stole the private photos he tried to slutshame her with, just to drum up interest in a boxing match. 

Here's hoping that's the worst asskicking this clown will suffer.
