LOGAN PAUL has revealed his swollen face after being attacked by Dillon Danis in a chaotic pre-fight press conference.
The grudge match between the two stars will be the co-headline bout in Manchester on Saturday night along with KSI versus Tommy Fury.
However, there were fears that the bout could be jeopardy after an explosive brawl left YouTuber-turned WWE star Paul gushing with blood on Thursday.
The pair had just finished trash-talking on stage when Paul, who has a 0-1-2 record, hurled a bottle of his Prime drink at Danis' nether regions.
MMA fighter Danis hit back by swiping a microphone at his rival’s head as security tried to separate them.
The 28-year-old Paul was left clutching his face after the sickening thud of the impact cut open his cheek.

Mams Taylor, KSI's manager and co-owner of Misfits Boxing, was initially unable to provide an update on the American’s health status after the shock incident.
However, Paul has now taken to social media to seemingly reassure fans that the highly-anticipated bout is still on despite the damage he suffered.
He firstly tweeted: “This Saturday we catching a predator.”
