One user wrote,” Give that $3,000 to the bouncer that choked you.” He said this in reference to the altercation Danis had with a security guard last year. The argument didn’t end up pretty for Danis. He got taken down by a rear-naked choke applied by the security guard.

Another user took this as a chance to slam Danis for his fighting skills. He wrote,” You don’t have anywhere near $3k. You’ve been on jobseekers allowance for 3 years. Only way you could’ve saved that up is not going to striking lessons for 20 years. So yeah maybe you do.”
