Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis
Dillon Danis asserts that his rise to 'A-List' status in the fight industry is a result of the social media buzz around his forthcoming grudge match with Logan Paul.
Thanks to his association with Conor McGregor and his prosperous grappling career, which earned him a lucrative contract with Bellator MMA, the Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt has built a substantial fan base over the years.
However, in recent weeks, he has achieved a whole new level of recognition, amassing billions of views for his Twitter and Instagram posts and more than tripling his follower count.
During the Flagrant podcast by Andrew Schulz, Danis mentioned, "I've definitely become more popular; I mean, now I'm considered 'A-List.'"
“Fighters? I'm definitely on the A-List... If you go on the street I bet you more people know me than any of these guys. Look at it on the camera back, every place we go it's 100 pictures, I'm just a bit defensive today, I've been on every show there is,” he added.
