Dillon Danis Fired Shots At Jake Shields And Gets Bashed By Multiple MMA Fighters In Return
Dillon Danis successfully made his MMA debut last year in April after defeating Kyle Walker via submission at Bellator 198. He’s mostly known for his association with former UFC champ Conor McGregor.
Currently, Danis is 1-0 in MMA and has nothing good to offer to combat sports as he hasn’t accomplished anything. So in order to keep himself in public eye Brazilian jiu-jitsu ace has irritated some fighters with his brash talk, and most recent victim of Danis trash talk is Nate Diaz’s stablemate, Jake Shields.
“Hugging my son,” he wrote in a Tweet which displays a photo from his 2017 Flograppling match with Shields.

Shields fires back reminded Danis of how their 2017 FloGrappling Submission Underground 4 match played off, which of course Jake won:
“I’m actually old enough to be your dad and still easily beat you at your own sport. Your biggest accomplishment is sucking Conor’s d**k,” Shields wrote.

Danis didn’t hold back throw another shot at Shields, a tweet he deleted out later:

Shields then follow up with another tweet asking fans to vote on Danis top accomplishment:
“What’s [Dillon Danis’] top accomplishment in life?,” he wrote. “Vote and retweet.”

Here several other MMA fighters chimed in and bashed Danis:
“That’s his highlight reel,” Rafael dos Anjos wrote in response to Jake Shields.

“And this clown actually lost this match with you Jake,” wrote UFC lightweight foe Gilbert Burns. “What a shame. We all know why Marcelo Garcia kicked him out. Great job MG.”

Notice even while trying to make fun of Jake you couldn't come up with anything near as funny as what you can come up with for Dillon because his entire existence is a joke

McGregor’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training partner Danis also slams Khabib Nurmgaomedov in the media leading up to UFC 229. Partly because he’s Mcgregor’s opponent and moreover when ‘Eagle’ confronted Artem Lobov in the hotel lobby prior to UFC 223 fight, which triggered an infamous bus incident in Brooklyn.
After Khabib’s historic win over Mcgregor, ‘Eagle’ leaped over the cage and attacked Danis, who was insulting Russian during the fight. Afterward, all hell loose broke.
Shields, meanwhile, has been fighting out under the Professional Fighters League (PFL) banner.
What do you think of their beef?
