'El Jefe' has been absent from the MMA scene for nearly three years. However, his name remains well-known, thanks in large part to his association with UFC star Conor McGregor. Danis initially gained fame as a Brazilian jiu-jitsu prodigy and was expected to excel in No-Gi grappling. He earned a black belt under the legendary Marcelo Garcia.
Dillon Danis ventured into mixed martial arts by joining Bellator MMA and marked his debut in April 2018. As of now, the 30-year-old American holds a professional record of 2-0. Danis claimed a first-round submission win over Kyle Walker at Bellator 198 in April 2018 and followed it up with another submission victory against Max Humphrey at Bellator 222, which took place in June 2019.

Dillon Danis denies his identity in order to avoid being lawfully served in Nina Agdal's harassment case
Since the fight was officially confirmed in July, Dillon Danis has consistently been sharing personal photos and videos of Logan Paul's fiancée, Nina Agdal. This led to Agdal taking legal action by filing a lawsuit and obtaining a restraining order against Danis.
Recently, 'El Jefe' was officially served with legal papers related to Agdal's lawsuit. This comes after a week of Danis avoiding the person tasked with delivering the documents. Video footage shows the process server and two others trying to hand Danis a brown envelope with the legal papers.

However, Danis initially refused, saying, "That's not me." Eventually, the server had to leave the documents on the ground as Danis and his companions entered his building.
