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.
