According to a report from The Orange County Register, BJJ star Dillon Danis has withdrawn from the upcoming Bellator 238 card due to an injury and after being heavily involved in preparing Conor McGregor for his return to the Octagon at UFC 246, Danis is also joined by Khrony Gracie on the Bellator injury list.

As of now, it still remains unclear if Bellator will be replacing both Danis and Gracie for their respective fights against the likes of Kegan Gennrich and Hector Saldana but as per MMA Fighting, both men will be paid their money for showing up.
