Dillon Danis is almost ready to face KSI for his professional boxing bout on 14th January 2023. But, before that, Danis has some scores to settle with former ONE Championship fighter Gordon Ryan. Evidently, the pair of hotheads are not fond of each other. But things got a little more heated after they chatted through their Instagram DM. Ryan challenged Danis to a fight at his gym, to which Danis never showed up. But he claimed that he did on a recent podcast episode with notable media personality Ariel Helwani. Danis also insisted that ‘The King’ ran away from his sight when he approached him.

But ‘The King’ shared his perspective on Instagram and set the record straight.

Ryan challenged Danis to come to his gym, Renzo Gracie Academy, for a fight.

El Jefe can talk better than he fights

Gordon Ryan recently fought on a UFC Fight Pass event against BJJ Black belter Nick Rodriguez. Ultimately, the fight was very close between the talented martial artists. But in the end, Ryan clinched the victory after he almost lost.

As per Ryan, El Jefe promised to be there but fled from the scene before Gordon Ryan showed up.

“What actually happened was Dillon came to the gym when he knew I wasn’t there, sent me a pic of the outside of renzos”

The former ADCC World champion already knew he would run away from the fight. But he did not appreciate Danis spreading lies about their encounter. “Talking is the easy part, winning isn’t. Maybe when the guy you’re talking about has more ADCC medals than you have ADCC wins you should just shut up 😂”

Ryan asked him to stay quiet more often until he could actually back his big talk.
