If there is one person in the MMA scene who seems to have beef with anyone and everyone, it has to be Dillon Danis. The BJJ prodigy first tasted fame for being part of Conor McGregor‘s UFC 229 training camp, even getting into a brawl with McGregor’s opponent Khabib Nurmagomedov following the Irishman’s loss.
Since then, the American has been shrouded in controversies, mostly over his random call-outs of different celebrities. These call-outs were targeted toward the likes of Jon Jones, Logan Paul, and Nate Diaz. The latest addition to this list is the internet sensation, Bradley Martyn.

In his latest tweet, Dillon Danis seems to be mocking Bradley Martyn. The tweet includes a video clip of Martyn tussling with another man with a similar build and size. The tussle seems to be pretty even, and neither man appears to be dominating anyone. It is noteworthy that this brawl does not seem to be violent. Danis captioned this as “Bradley Martyn – IN a STreet FiGHT i beAt anyONe,” thus mocking the celebrity’s lack of dominance in the fight.

For those unaware, Bradley Martyn is a fitness influencer and media personality. Apart from his aesthetic physique, he is known for his stunts and motivational videos. In one of his appearances on Brandon Schaub’s “This Boy” podcast, Martyn claimed that he could beat anyone in a street fight, and it seems like Danis was quoting this statement.
This is not the first time that ‘El Jefe’ has done something like that. In fact, at this point, Dillon Danis is more well-known for his trolling than his in-ring action. Even Jon Jones wasn’t spared following his controversial win over Dominic Reyes. According to many, these antics are Danis’s strategy to secure high-level fights. Nevertheless, none of this beef has ever gone to a ring or mat.
Dillon Danis’s trolling attracts fan reaction
It is an undisputed fact that controversy on Twitter spreads like wildfire, and Danis’s tweet was no different. Fans soon came out with their reactions, and as expected, most of these weren’t in favor of the BJJ black belt. Many seem to be mentioning Danis’s past brawl with a security guard, who also happens to be a chocolatier. The same fight ended with the grappler getting choked out.
