Dillon Danis has become a heel of MMA and he has embraced every second of it.

Following UFC Newark where Colby Covington beat Robbie Lawler by decision, Jon Jones took to Twitter to say the following.

“Robbie just the let the whole world down,” he wrote.

Immediately, Dillon Danis took to social media to reply to “Bones” and like usual took a dig at the light heavyweight champion.

“something you should know a lot about,” Danis replied.

Of course, Jon Jones has had a ton of legal issues which has resulted in him not being able to fight and being pulled from fights at the last second. Along with the picogram, USADA issues.

Nonetheless, Dillon Danis continues to play the heel role and plays it well. Although he is just 2-0 as a pro, with both wins coming by submission, he gets on the nerves of many fighters. The Bellator fighter last fought back Bellator 222 where he submitted max Humphrey in the first round by armbar. The SBG Ireland-product is also the jiu-jitsu coach of Conor McGregor.

Jones, meanwhile, last fought back at UFC 239 where he beat Thiago Santos by split-decision. Before then, he beat Anthony Smith by decision at UFC 235, and at UFC 232 he TKO’d Alexander Gustafsson. The Gus fight marked his return to the Octagon where he has been active ever since and says he would like to fight again in November or December.

Although he’s currently suspended from competing in mixed martial arts, former UFC light heavyweight champion and former pound-for-pound king Jon “Bones” Jones recently returned to action in the form of a grappling match, submitting Dan Henderson earlier this month (Dec. 11, 2016) at Submission Underground 3. Jones also called out Chael Sonnen, who promotes Submission Underground, for next month’s Submission Underground 3.

In the time since submitting Henderson, “Bones” has received various grappling challenges, most notably from former UFC champions Luke Rockhold and Frank Mir. This led the former 205-pound titleholder to take to his official Twitter account earlier today to issue a challenge to all black belts, asking ‘who’s tapping next’:


Surprisingly, Jones received an answer from decorated Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt Dillon Danis, who also happens to be a notable training partner and cornerman for UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor. Taking a page out of the “Notorious” one’s book, Danis told Jones to ‘beg’ him:
