Dillon Danis hits back at Errol Spence Jr. following Boxer's explicit comment directed at Bellator's upcoming event in July this year.

The highly anticipated Bellator MMA vs. Rizin 2 event takes place on July 29. The event, co-promoted by Bellator MMA and the Rizin Fighting Federation, will be held at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan.

Headlining the event will be a quarterfinal bout of the Bellator Lightweight World Grand Prix between former Bellator Featherweight Champion A.J. McKee and former Bellator Lightweight Champion Patricky Pitbull. Additionally, an inaugural Bellator Flyweight Championship bout between Kyoji Horiguchi and Makoto Shinryu is scheduled as the co-main event.

"Nobody gives a fu*k about Bellator MMA, July 29 👨🏽‍🦯."

Not one to shy away from a challenge, Dillon Danis swiftly responded, aiming to defend Bellator's honor. In his reply, Danis, known for his association with Conor McGregor, fired back at Spence, stating:

"I honestly don't know who you are, but if you can survive one round in a real fight against me, I'll donate 5 million to any charity of your choice."
