‘The Diamond’ trains at American Top Team in Coconut Creek in Florida. Following his teammate Sabah Homasi’s KO win at the recent Bellator 250 event, Dustin tweeted, “We had a bet going fight week that if he did this we’d all get a tattoo… tattoo incoming (Mike Brown).”

Jon Anik was quick to approve of the outcome replying, “I like tattoo bets.”
