Dillon Danis: I’ll fight Nate Diaz in MMA ‘tomorrow’

[Wild]

Nate Diaz specifically called out Conor McGregor's Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach Dillon Danis on Saturday night. On Monday, Danis responded.

Diaz ripped Danis at the post-fight press conference after UFC 202 in Las Vegas, bashing him for representing the Irishman when he is from the United States and saying he's on his "hit list." Danis told Ariel Helwani on Monday's edition of The MMA Hour that if Diaz wants a fight, he can have one.

"I don't know what that means, I'm on his hit list," Danis said. "But if he wants to do MMA, I'll fight him in MMA if he wants. He can do a CM Punk with me and bring me into the UFC. He can be my first fight. I'll fight him in a couple months, whatever he wants to do."

Danis, 23, is a black belt in BJJ under legendary coach Marcelo Garcia in New York. He doesn't have any MMA experience at all.

Of course the guy is going to come out like that. It would be his biggest payday and he'd jump in line to the UFC to take an epic ass whoopin. And, to compare yourself to CM Punk is sad. It's like a rapper talking about being the next MC Hammer. You've shit on your own game and dissed yourself.

LOL no. He would get worked. You don't come in 0-0 and take on a top 5/top 10 LW

Nate was scummy after the fight and wouldn't shake his hand. Then Nate goes to the press conference saying he's on his hit list. So Dillon said he would take on Nate in any combat sport. How do you think he would react? He is an elite competitor. Not gonna let himself get punked. They're obviously not gonna fight mma.

Danis is looking to get his bum life changed.

Lol. If that fight gets sanctioned, there something wrong.

That would be an epic beating.
