Dillon Danis (NY Post)
Dillon Danis is an MMA star who fights in Bellator but what is his ethnicity and is he Irish?
Dillon Danis has been in the news recently after calling out Logan Paul. The pair have been slamming each other online, and Danis then took it to another level after posting inappropriate photos of Paul’s fiance, Nina Adgal.
It is to be seen if the pair ever fight, especially since Danis’ last fight was in 2019. However, there are other questions about Danis.
Many have asked what the ethnicity of Dillon Danis is, and the straight answer is that he is American. However, he was born to a Honduran mother and was raised in Parsippany-Troy Hills, New Jersey.
Danis also is American, so the question of him being Irish doesn’t feature. This question could be asked by many due to his close association with UFC legend Conor McGregor.
Danis is one of the biggest supporters of McGregor and has trained with the Irishman. The pair were also involved in the infamous brawl after McGregor lost to Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229.
This is a question that many in the MMA world have asked. While Danis was highly regarded as a top talent, he hasn’t fought since 2019.
The 31-year-old is 2-0 in his MMA career under the Bellator banner. According to reports, Danis has two more fights left on his Bellator contract.
He has claimed that he wants to finish off both his fights in 2023, but time is running out since it is already mid-August. Danis has also spoken about fighting once more after the two stipulated fights on his Bellator deal.
The 31-year-old has called out several names for boxing fights, and a fight against Logan Paul seems to be on the cards.
Danis is not a boxer, however, he could be the latest one to participate in celebrity boxing. Nate Diaz, a UFC legend, recently fought Jake Paul in a boxing match and lost.
Danis has spoken a lot about his next fight, and it will be interesting to see if he really is in action before the end of 2024 as fans last witnessed the star way back in 2019.
