Dillon Danis was involved in a brawl with team KSI, and got rocked with a right hand by Anthony Taylor
On Friday, Dillon Danis added to the drama in the combat sports world. Danis was involved in a heated and nearly physical altercation with MMA star Nate Diaz outside of Madison Square Garden in New York this past weekend at UFC 281, and he found himself in a number of more confrontational situations a few days later.
Danis met YouTube sensation and part-time boxer KSI at Saturday’s “DAZN X Series 0003 Misfits Boxing” event in Austin, Texas. The two exchanged words, and KSI dared Danis to touch him while they were surrounded by media.
The video of Dillon Danis’s brawl following his recent altercation with KSI shows the Bellator fighter being rocked by Anthony Taylor. “Pretty Boy” Taylor is an MMA fighter and boxer who beat Conor McGregor’s teammate outside of the misfit weigh-in. Several angles of the Dillon Danis and Anthony Taylor brawl have surfaced on the internet.
Danis ignited the brawl, slapping the hat off KSI’s head, causing a scuffle that was quickly de-escalated by security.
Dan Hooker says Dillon Danis was arrested by the cops the same night he got into a scuffle with Nate Diaz
Dillon Danis got into a scuffle with MMA superstar Nate Diaz at UFC 281. The two were in attendance to witness the pay-per-view event that went down last Saturday at Madison Square Garden. The UFC legend, who is no stranger to a brawl, was surrounded by fans outside the prestigious arena following the event, when he bumped into Danis, his friend and McGregor’s manager Audie Attar.
Dillon Danis made an appearance at the nightclub that hosted the afterparty of UFC 281. Dan Hooker, who came back to winning ways with a victory over Claudio Puelles was also in attendance.
Speaking in a recent episode on The AllStar, Hooker narrated the incident when Danis was escorted out of the club:
“I saw Dillon Danis at our afterparty. He was at our afterparty. He was like in the booth over and he tried to come in like our booth and got past the security. Waka [Beau Rawiri] from our team was like, ‘Who the fuck is this guy?’ and he chucked him out.”
He added:
“He was like, this Dillon Danis guy is a f**king joke and he chucked him out of out booth. I think he got the boot from the nightclub after that.””
