Dillon Danis first gained fame within the mixed martial arts world for being the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coach to none other than UFC megastar Conor McGregor. Since then, Danis made his own MMA debut under the banner of Bellator MMA.
Danis earned a first round submission victory over Kyle Walker, a fighter that was 2-3 before the match up. Since then, Danis has been asserting himself as the top star of the Bellator promotion.
