Dillon Danis says he and ‘simp’ Ben Askren have same MMA credentials, threatens to ‘suplex’ him

Dillon Danis is back to saying Dillon Danis things.

Danis, a Bellator fighter who transitioned to MMA from competitive jiu-jitsu last year, took aim at UFC welterweight Ben Askren in a tweet Saturday. Askren called out UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov for a 165-pound title fight at the end of 2019. Danis responsed to “Funky,” telling him to “pipe down.”

“Me and you have the same credentials in MMA pipe down you simp before i suplex you,” Danis wrote.

Of course, Danis is in Bellator and Askren is in the UFC, so a lot would have to happen for a fight between the pair to make sense and line up.
