One of the most hated Grapplers in BJJ History, Dillon Danis is planning his next MMA fight. The 2-0 MMA fighter and McGregor grappling coach, recently had a shouting war with Khabib Nurmagomedov’s manager Ali Adbelaziz.
In a recent interview, he answered a question about who would win in a grappling match between himself and Khabib.
Danis who is a high level BJJ black belt under Marcelo Garcia, and ADCC competitor candidl;y answered:
“In straight grappling? Ahh, come on.”
Reporter (sounding surprised): “Yeah? Easy Work?”
“Yeah, come on everybody knows that though.But it’s not my fight. It’s Connor’s fight.”
A straight grappling match or even an MMA fight between these two will of course probably never happen. Danis is much accomplished Submission grappler. Khabib would have a huge advantage in the Wrestling but nobody has really seen him competing at the elite grappling level, even though he easily won a NAGA expert division.
