Dillion Danis is certainly a controversial personality. After a highly regarded Jiu-Jitsu career, the fighter debuted in MMA. He signed with Bellator MMA in 2018. Since then, ‘El Jefe’ has only competed twice. Yet, due to his outspoken personality, he has stayed in the headlines. Danis has been associated with Conor McGregor and was also involved in the post-fight brawl at UFC 229. He gets into a lot of tussles and scuffles.

It is safe to say that Danis and the Paul brothers don’t get along too well. In the past, he was considered a potential opponent for both. Logan Paul even had a hostile confrontation with him a few years back.
