Dillon Danis has gotten a lot of attention since teaming up with Conor McGregor<\/a> for his last two fight camps helping with his jiu-jitsu game.<\/p>\n

Danis was initially brought in to help McGregor for his UFC 202 rematch against Nate Diaz<\/a> after he was submitted by the Stockton scrapper in their initial meeting at UFC 196. After McGregor was able to get redemption by winning a majority decision over Diaz at UFC 202, Danis was a part of the training camp for McGregor’s UFC 205 fight against then-lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez. McGregor ran through Alvarez and is now looking to cash in on the biggest fight of his career<\/a> by stepping into the boxing ring against Floyd Mayweather.<\/p>\n

It seems the style and attitude of McGregor have rubbed off on the grappling specialist, who recently signed a contract with Bellator. Danis has claimed that he is the highest paid fighter in Bellator<\/a> and feels he has the biggest following on their roster.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a bigger following and a bigger name than anyone on the roster,\u201d Danis said on The MMA Hour after the announcement of his signing with Bellator (transcribed by Dave Doyle of MMA Fighting<\/a>). \u201cSo at the end of the day I wasn\u2019t surprised. It was the right move for them. You can put any of those bums against me, and they\u2019ll get a rating.\u201d<\/p>\n

That statement Danis made has reflections of McGregor all over it and now, Danis is even looking a little bit more like “The Notorious.” Danis posted a few photos recently to social media sporting a full head of blonde hair, getting just a little closer in looks to the UFC lightweight champion.<\/p>\n
