Conor McGregor‘s sparring partner and teammate Dillon Danis has been going back and forth with Ali Abdelaziz on Twitter of late. They seem to share a great deal of animosity with each other. However, McGregor’s former rival Nate Diaz‘s teammate Jake Shields sent a reminder to Danis amidst his ongoing social media altercation with the prominent MMA manager.

Dillon Danis and Ali Abdelaziz have had a lot of bad blood since McGregor’s rivalry with Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018. It was clear that both teams harbored a deep distaste for one another. Fans have seen both camps engage with each other on social media numerous times. With the latest Danis-Abdelaziz Twitter war going on, Jake Shields decided to take a side.

The former UFC star caught up with the ongoing verbal warfare between Abdelaziz and Danis. Furthermore, he took the opportunity to share a tweet in an attempt to defend the MMA manager. He wrote: “Ali would beat Dillon’s a**.” 

Dillon Danis didn’t spare any words for Jake Shields and told the former UFC fighter to keep his mouth shut. It aggravated Shields. He proceeded to share an image of him defeating ‘El Jefe’ in a submission grappling bout from 2018. Shields gave him a reminder and warned Danis by saying, “Son don’t make me spank you again.”

It is not rare to see Dillon Danis get into a war of words with MMA figures on social media. Moreover, it may not be the last time we see him get involved in such scuffles.

Dillon Danis and Ali Abdelaziz’s Twitter war

Recently, UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev took to Twitter and jokingly demanded that CEO Elon Musk give him a blue tick for his account. However, this tweet was noticed by Dillon Danis, who replied back asking Makhachev to earn his blue belt in jiu-jitsu before getting the blue tick on Twitter.

Makhachev’s manager didn’t take Danis’s comments too kindly. He clapped right back at ‘El Jefe’ and asked him to show some respect to the Dagestani native. Abdelaziz wrote, “Stop talking trash to the champion your bum.” He tweeted a screenshot of an article that mentioned Danis getting slapped by Abdelaziz in 2021.

Dillon Danis didn’t hold back. He retaliated and harked back with a comment that Conor McGregor made about Ali Abdelaziz. ‘El Jefe’ wrote, “How’s Noah?” As per several reports, Noah is Abdelaziz’s son, whom he doesn’t share much of a relationship with.

Many people would have thought that the verbal altercation might end there. However, Abdelaziz got back at Dillon Danis, claiming that Noah had grown up and can prove to be a tough challenge for Danis. He wrote, “Noah is actually a big guy now he can slap you too, you are an embarrassment.” 

This back-and-forth doesn’t look like it will stop soon. What do you make of Jake Shields’ reminder to Dillon Danis? Drop your comments below.
