UFC News round up: Conor McGregor blamed for Dillon Danis’ downfall
Jiu-jitsu fighter Gordon Ryan told Dillon Danis that his MMA career ended due to joining forces with UFC champion Conor McGregor. Danis is preparing for his fight with KSI on January 14 at the OVO Wembley Arena, marking the fourth iteration of DAZN’s association with Misfit’s Boxing, the promotional company founded by the YouTuber-turned-boxer.
According to Ryan on MMA Fighting, he was generally well-liked as a brown belt. He excelled in tournaments as a brown belt and showed promise as a black belt combatant. However, he loses his cool during a fight with Marcelo Garcia and after getting close to Conor McGregor. His career continued to crumble when his popularity plummeted.

At UFC on Fox 17, Leon Edwards and Kamaru Usman met almost seven years ago. When compared to the fighters they are today, both men were different. The Nigerian Nightmare outwrestled his opponent to a convincing unanimous decision victory in their initial fight, despite Edwards’ valiant attempt in the opening round. Usman eventually won the UFC welterweight title, and Edwards learned from the defeat.
Years later, when the two entered the octagon for their eagerly anticipated rematch, “Rocky” shocked everyone by defeating Kamaru Usman.
