MMA Community reacts to Dillon Danis’ impressive debut at Bellator 198

Submission specialist Dillon Danis made his professional mixed martial arts debut at tonight’s Bellator 198 event against opponent Kyle Walker.

Danis ate a couple of big shots from Walker in the early seconds of the fight but was eventually able to pull guard, a move which immediately had Kyle in trouble.

Danis was able to secure one of Walker’s legs and ultimately locked in a toe hold which forced his opponent to tapout.

Dillon Danis' stand-up was far from pretty, but he ultimately got the job done so good for him.

Danis took a couple shots on the feet but was able to get Kyle Walker down around 45-60 seconds in and then went to work. The ground game, as you’d expect, was impressive.

Dillon Danis pulls guard early and collects a quick toe hold submission over Kyle Walker in his MMA debut. The result many expected, but still impressive. Took a left hand on the feet but looked relatively comfortable doing so.

Danis is going to be big for Bellator. No need to rush him along by any means.

Danis: I'm the one that created this and built this whole card. All the bums on the card will call me out now. We'll see what's next.

“Congrats to my brother @dillondanis on winning his MMA debut tonight! #Proud” – Conor McGregor
