Dillon Danis was victorious in his first MMA fight in six years and he might already have his next opponent lined up: World\u2019s Strongest Man legend Eddie Hall.<\/p>\n
Shortly after Danis made quick work of Warren Spencer<\/a> at Misfits Boxing 22 this past weekend, he found himself face to face with Hall and the two made a loose agreement for a potential fight.<\/p>\n According to Hall, he has to lose a considerable amount of weight for Danis to accept the fight, but he\u2019s prepared to sign on the dotted line if Danis sticks to his end of the bargain.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s been talking shit for a long time, doing snide comments on the old social media, so I thought he\u2019d put his money where his mouth is tonight,\u201d Hall told Bloody Elbow<\/a>. \u201cHe wanted me to get under 400 pounds, he must think I\u2019m over 400. Well, I\u2019m under 400. So I said, \u2018Look, I\u2019ll get under 300 pounds if he shakes hands on it there and then and he did shake hands, so give me 12 weeks, I will lose 64 pounds, and I will come in and rock his f*cking chin.\u201d<\/p>\n Hall, a 2017 World\u2019s Strongest Man champion, has dabbled in combat sports and recently made his MMA debut against fellow strongman legend Mariusz Pudzianowski at a KSW event this past April. It was a stunning debut for Hall, who finished Pudzianowski with strikes in just 30 seconds.<\/p>\n Should he actually set up a fight with Danis, he welcomes the inevitable war of words his opponent has become famous for.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m actually quite a fan of Dillon,\u201d Hall said. \u201cI love his shit talk. He\u2019s got brilliant shit talk. I think it was all the feud with the Paul brothers that made me aware of him. I\u2019m a bit of a fan, but you can be a fan of someone but still want to knock them out.\u201d<\/p>\n Even with just three MMA bouts under his belt, Danis is far more seasoned than Hall when it comes to combat sports, having competed in grappling for years and also boxed Logan Paul in forgettable 2023 contest.<\/p>\n Hall has plenty of respect for Danis\u2019 grappling, but believes he has a serious puncher\u2019s chance to silence the New Jersey native.<\/p>\n \u201cI just think one good hit on his face, and he\u2019ll regret shaking my hand,\u201d Hall said.<\/p>\n Pay. Tom Aspinall\u2019s dad thinks boxing makes sense for the heavyweight champ because \u201cThe UFC ain\u2019t paying that type of money.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n Prediction. Robert Whittaker is going with JDM<\/a> to stop Islam Makhachev\u2019s epic win streak.<\/p>\n Next? Merab Dvalishvili has to overcome Cory Sandhagen first, but that isn\u2019t stopping him from envisioning one more title fight in 2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n Transformation.
