Dillon Danis chokes out OnlyFans model-turned-boxer Elle Brooke
Dillon Danis recently helped OnlyFans star Elle Brooke experience getting choked out (h/t @SpinninBackfist on X). The jiu-jitsu maestro ran into the celebrity boxer at the same Misfits Boxing open workouts.
After applying a firm rear-naked choke on Brooke, Danis held it in place till she lost consciousness for a short while. As Brooke's legs gave out, Phil Hawes and Danis helped her get up and steady herself. It seems the OnlyFans model-turned-boxer had an outworldly experience, twitching as she lost her cognizance.
As soon as Elle Brooke woke up, she thanked Danis and compared her experience to that of using the party drug MDMA. As the Bellator welterweight contender laughed with Hawes, she could be heard saying:
"It felt like I was on MDMA. Oh my god, that's so much better than drugs."
Danis will be making his first combat sports outing since his first-round submission win against Max Humphrey at Bellator 222 in June 2019. His boxing match against Logan Paul is scheduled to be a six-round affair at 195 pounds and will go down at the AO Arena in Manchester, England.
