Dillon Danis has opened up about following in the footsteps of Conor McGregor as a movie star.
McGregor made his Hollywood debut with the recently released, Road House. In the movie, ‘The Notorious’ was seen alongside Hollywood A-lister Jake Gyllenhaal. The movie was eagerly anticipated as it was the first time the former UFC champion was seen on the big screen.
Ahead of the release of the movie, Conor McGregor’s former teammate Dillon Danis has given his thoughts on the same. For those unaware of Danis, he is an MMA fighter as well. However, his last professional fight was back in 2019. As of now, he boasts a professional MMA record of 2-0.
While Danis has been out of the cage for quite some time, last year he was seen in a boxing fight against Logan Paul. When the two locked horns inside the squared circle, ‘El Jefe’ had a rather embarrassing night out as he was dominated by Paul for six rounds before being disqualified.
