Overview
- In new comments, Danis says Dana White and Hunter Campbell declined to bring him in over concerns he would misbehave, referencing his offer to join The Ultimate Fighter.
- He told Demetrious Johnson he now makes more than Johnson earned in his UFC title fights, attributing his payouts to his drawing power on platforms such as DAZN.
- Danis’ 15-second guillotine of Warren Spencer at Misfits X Series 22 is confirmed, while his claim of a seven-figure purse for that fight remains his assertion.
- Positioning for a marquee bout, he has called for a matchup with Islam Makhachev as a potential champion-versus-champion meeting if Makhachev wins the UFC welterweight belt at UFC 322.
- He also alleges Makhachev punched him multiple times during the UFC 229 melee, framing a rematch as personal revenge, and these claims are reported as his statements rather than independently verified facts.
