The previous grappler remains to be right down to throw hands with considered one of the celebrities of Sunday night’s game.
Dillon Danis is definitely no stranger to calling people out whether or not they are fighters, athletes and even just celebrities. Ever since he first began to make a reputation for himself within the combat sports world as a top grappler and training partner of Conor McGregor, the 31-year-old has talked a giant game.
Nevertheless, there isn’t necessarily a track record for Danis putting his money where his mouth is having made some daring statements prior to now about what he would do to a few of one of the best fighters on this planet.
When he did finally step back into competition in 2023 for a boxing match with Logan Paul, he was convincingly beaten by the WWE superstar before getting himself disqualified within the sixth round. He’s now set to return for a rebooked clash with KSI on March 29.
But Danis is continuous to acknowledge a feud with an athlete outside of the combat sports circle.
Dillon Danis brings Saquon Barkley feud from 2019 back up following Super Bowl LIX
Saquon Barkley is one of the talked about athletes on this planet without delay following Super Bowl LIX in Recent Orleans on Sunday night.
In his debut season for the Philadelphia Eagles, Barkley broke a record that has existed since 1998 after he became the record holder for essentially the most rushing yards in a single season in NFL history together with becoming a Super Bowl champion.
The 28-year-old running back had previously gone back-and-forth with Dillon Danis over social media all the best way back in 2019 where he live tweeted his reactions to Barstool Sports’ Rough N’ Rowdy 10.
Barkley called to fight the controversial fighter all those years ago and now that he’s at the head of the sporting world, despite having a comparatively quiet game against the Kansas City Chiefs, Danis is bringing the callout back into the general public eye.
Danis shared a screenshot on his Instagram story of an article from Barstool Sports about their social media exchange back in 2019, writing the next caption:
“Let’s go brother @saquon haha”
Dillon Danis would seem to have his hands full without delay
Dillon Danis has been incredibly inactive over the past few years attributable to several significant aspects but that may very well be set to vary.
His boxing match with Logan Paul in October of 2023 was his first competitive bout of any kind since his second MMA fight in Bellator back in 2019 where he submitted Max Humphrey.
Danis now has the choice to remain busy along with his upcoming fight against KSI in Manchester on X Series 21 and the news that he was drafted by the Global Fight League (GFL) last month.
Should he be a component of the promotion’s first season, which looks like a giant ask considering the turnaround he would want to make after his boxing return, Danis definitely won’t be short on options.
