Dillon Danis is a notorious figure, and he remains focused on the UFC. 

The former Bellator MMA welterweight and key sparring partner of Conor McGregor told The Post that his return to the fight game is all about getting to the big show.

“I talked to Hunter [Campbell, UFC Chief Business Officer] and there’s certain things that we talk about that I can’t say,” Danis said. “He just wants me to stay active and show that I want to fight.”
