Dillon Danis wants fight with Islam Makhachev to end their story.
Alright, fight fans, let's break this down because Dillon Danis is back at it, and this time he's not just trolling on the internet for clout—he's calling out the pound-for-pound king, Islam Makhachev, and man, if this isn't the most chaotic timeline, I don't know what is. You've gotta love the sheer audacity.Here's Danis, the MMA blogger and occasional fighter whose biggest claim to fame in recent memory was that circus with Logan Paul, suddenly declaring himself the 'real welterweight champion' while the actual UFC champ, Jack Della Maddalena, is just out here doing his job. But Danis isn't interested in the formalities; he's got a score to settle, a story to finish, and he's pointing directly at Makhachev, saying, 'Everyone knows where to find me.' This isn't just a call-out; it's a sequel no one asked for but everyone might just tune into for the drama. Let's rewind the tape to UFC 229 in October 2018, because that's where this beef supposedly started.Remember the scene? It was pure chaos after Khabib Nurmagomedov submitted Conor McGregor, and all hell broke loose. Khabib jumped the cage, and in the ensuing melee, Danis claims Makhachev came at him from behind.Fast forward to today, and Danis is spinning this narrative like it's a personal vendetta, a chance for revenge to 'end this story. ' But let's be real—this is Dillon Danis we're talking about.The man is a master of the online grind, a provocateur who knows how to stay relevant by dropping bombshells that get the MMA world buzzing. He's even joked about Makhachev before, throwing shade with lines like 'boxing, grappling, and steroids—the most perfect fighter in history,' which, sure, gets laughs, but also highlights the underlying tensions and the trash-talk game that's become his signature.Now, imagine this playing out in the UFC landscape. Makhachev is on a tear, dominating the lightweight division and eyeing that welterweight title, while Danis is.well, he's Dillon Danis. The odds of this fight happening? Slim to none, but that's not the point.In today's fight game, where social media call-outs can sometimes lead to big-money bouts, Danis is playing the long game, hoping to leverage his notoriety into a payday that'd make even the Logan Paul boxing match look tame. Dana White might be skeptical—he's already called out the inflated PPV numbers from Danis's past antics—but in an era where influencers and fighters blur the lines, you can't rule anything out.Think about it: the buildup would be pure entertainment, with Danis firing off memes and Makhachev staying stoic, the classic clash of personalities that sells tickets. Beyond the hype, though, this taps into something deeper in combat sports—the allure of unfinished business.Fans eat this stuff up, whether it's a grudge match or a redemption arc, and Danis is crafting his own version, painting himself as the wronged party seeking closure. It's a storyline straight out of a WWE script, but in MMA, where real stakes meet manufactured drama, it could just work. So, while the purists might roll their eyes, the rest of us will be watching, popcorn in hand, because in the wild world of fighting, sometimes the most unlikely stories are the ones that capture our attention.
