Dillon Danis

Dillon Danis (born August 22, 1993) is an American retired mixed martial artist and professional boxer. Danis competed in the Welterweight division of Bellator MMA. He also competed in the Pan Jiu-Jitsu No-Gi Championship.

He made his mixed martial arts debut at Bellator 198 against Kyle Walker and won via a toe hold in the first round. He then faced Max Humphreys at Bellator 222 and won via armbar in the first round. He was involved in a melee at UFC 229 after Khabib Nurmagomedov proceeded to throw his mouthpiece and then scaled the cage and appeared to jump towards him. He responded by throwing punches at Nurmagomedov before an all-out brawl ensued. He was subsequently fined $7,500 and suspended for 7 months following the incident. Throughout his career, Danis has become the subject of many controversies due to his behaviour.

He was scheduled to face English YouTuber KSI at MF & DAZN: X Series 004 but withdrew due to lack of preparation and coaching. In his debut professional boxing match, he was defeated by American YouTuber Logan Paul via disqualification after illegal use of Jiu-Jitsu moves.
