He's the prospect that no one is talking about that has potential to wreck some shit. Time will tell how his ground game translates to MMA against tough competition, but I certainly feel his ceiling is higher than Ryan Hall's (no disrespect to Hall).It's a shame the UFC didn't snag Tonon. He's looked very good in one and has pretty decent stand up already. Danis has that "oh shit" look on his face if he can't get it to the ground quickly.
Yeah he quickly got decent standup where he chose to test himself and get the better of it then take it to the ground and get a sub. Usually that takes years to see in a BJJ guyHe's the prospect that no one is talking about that has potential to wreck some shit.

Lol, only God knows what Khabib would do to this poor boy.
Exactly -- he is choosing to keep fights standing longer than he needs to, it seems.Yeah he quickly got decent standup where he chose to test himself and get the better of it then take it to the ground and get a sub. Usually that takes years to see in a BJJ guy
Dillon Danis is 18-16 as a black belt.
He's literally the Artem Lobov of BJJ.
Many MMA fighters have better BJJ records than him.
The myth about his elite statues is so weird and misleading.
Conor really loves training with cans and journeymen.
In submission grappling? Whole lot of nothing.
Yeah he didn't even set up the takedowns with strikes. He tested his standup while he can and took him down. Danis' whole gameplan is that and he doesn't realize or doesn't care that it's not going to work against wrestlers.Exactly -- he is choosing to keep fights standing longer than he needs to, it seems.
