Conor McGregor’s Ex-Coach Bets ‘$40 Million’ for Tyson Fury Fight Amidst His Joe Rogan & Jon Jones Remarks
Tyson Fury and Jon Jones are considered to be two of the baddest men on the planet and a fantasy matchup between the two is something that interests the whole world. Despite the possibility of a fight between the two happening being next to impossible, UFC color commentator Joe Rogan once gave his thoughts on what would happen if it were to happen.
Joe Rogan sided with Jon Jones and the same seems to have not settled well with the boxing heavyweight champion, who recently clapped back at the UFC color commentator.
Dillon Danis wants to bet $40 million against Tyson Fury
Tyson Fury was certainly not a fan of Joe Rogan’s comments and recently blasted him for his opinions while suggesting no man could ever beat him.
Amidst all the chaos, Conor McGregor’s former jiu-jitsu coach Dillon Danis has jumped in between with a rather outrageous offer. Danis recently took to Twitter and challenged ‘The Gypsy King’ to survive one round in MMA.
While doing so, Dillon Danis also suggested that he’s willing to put up $20 million against Tyson Fury’s $20 million with the winner taking all the money. He said:
“I’ll put up 20 million vs your 20 million – 1 mma round if you survive 5 mins you keep all the money @Tyson_Fury”

Fury, however, is yet to respond to Danis’s tweet. Meanwhile, fans in the comments section brutally mocked Danis for his bizarre offer while pointing out his minor experience in combat compared to Fury.
How did Jon Jones react to Tyson Fury’s response?
Upon hearing what Tyson Fury had to say about a potential clash with Jon Jones, the UFC heavyweight champion took to Twitter and seemingly called out ‘The Gypsy King’.
‘Bones’ accepted the fact that Tyson Fury is undoubtedly the best in boxing. However, he went on to claim that he won’t be able to find success in the UFC octagon. He said:
“I’ll admit there’s no one touching you in that ring right now, but let’s not let that confuse you with what would happen if you stepped foot in my cage.”

Further in the tweet, Jon Jones also urged Tyson Fury to call the UFC president Dana White if he wanted to make something happen between the two. It’s safe to say that Jones is extremely confident in his abilities. And believes he will destroy Fury inside the octagon. However, as appealing as the bout might seem, the chances of it actually happening are very less.
What are your thoughts on the recent feud between Fury and Jones? What do you guys think about Danis’ challenge?
