Eddie Hall vs. Dillon Danis? Misfits Tease Wild Heavyweight Showdown in the Ring

In a twist nobody saw coming, Misfits Boxing is teasing a potential clash between strongman-turned-FIghter Eddie Hall and controversial MMA figure Dillon Danis.

While the two were previously linked to a bout under the Misfits MMA banner, recent promotional material suggests this matchup may go down in the squared circle instead.

The tale of the tape highlights the massive physical disparity between the two. Hall, 37, stands at 6’2″, weighing in at a colossal 334 lbs with an 80″ reach. Danis, 31, is significantly lighter at 195 lbs, 6 feet tall, and has a 72″ reach. Both men are 0-1 in professional boxing, with Hall’s last appearance coming in April 2025 and Danis’s in October 2023.

Originally floated as an MMA fight, Danis himself admitted he was “close” to fighting Hall under Misfits’ new MMA league. But with this latest poster and the Misfits Boxing logo front and center, it looks like plans have shifted — and fast.

From a competitive standpoint, this matchup raises eyebrows. The size and power advantage is heavily tilted in Hall’s favor, but Danis, a BJJ black belt and Conor McGregor training partner, has made a name for himself more through trash talk than his actual combat sports record. Still, his involvement guarantees headlines and social media buzz.

Whether it’s a circus or a spectacle, this is Misfits at its finest — unexpected, viral, and likely to pull in massive attention. Boxing purists may scoff, but the crossover crowd is already grabbing popcorn.

Stay tuned for an official announcement. If this fight is confirmed, it’s bound to shake up the influencer fight scene once again.
