Dillon Danis has worked out techniques for his fight with KSI by calling in the help of the most scary champion of the UFC.
Controversial former Bellator -star Danis was faced on March 29 on YouTube star KSI, before he finally goes back to the MMA cage to face Tony Ferguson under the GFL banner on 11 May. And to prepare, he trained with Alex Pereira in New York.
The frightening Brazilian has been in his own camp for UFC 313, where he takes on Magomed Ankalaev on Saturday evening. He defends his light-heavy title for the fourth time in 11 months and will have wiped anything but his division as he would win.
Dillon Danis Details Alex Pereira Sparring Sessions
Dillon Danis was seen for the first time with Alex Pereira a while ago, but has lately been involved in more sessions. And with a bloody elbow in an exclusive chat, he opened how they worked exactly in the gym.
“I like to be in the bag and throw,” Danis explained. “That is how I and Pereira have spared when you look at the images. But these guys [KSI and Logan Paul] They don't want to be busy, run around the ring and circle and the quality of KSI is doing star jumps or some s -.
“Alex is a beast, he is one of the strongest people I have ever felt in my entire life. So I am excited to see him knock -out Ankalaev. I hate Dagestanis, not all, but much if I'm honest. So Alex has shown me a lot and he is just finished – and an animal with whom I like to train.
Alex Pereira opens about sparring with Dillon Danis
Although Pereira was mainly focused on his own work, he had time to help Danis prepare for KSI. And although he will not be in the corner before the fight, he explained that he is hopeful for a victory for his teammate when the bell rings.
“I think it's a good fight with two big names,” Pereira Bloody Elbow told his role as Ringambassdor during an exclusive chat last week. “I trained with him today, and of course he is a different weight, a different size than me, and also a different style.
“But he did very well, he trains with us and is root for him – I couldn't say anything else. But I will look at the fight and hope he wins. “
