ALBAWABA - A video of a massive brawl between Dillon Danis and Islam Makhachev's teammates, including Magomed Zaynikov (also known as John Pork or Chanco), at the UFC 322 event in New York City flooded social media.
The violent clash occurred among the crowd following the main event when Danid confronted members from "Team Khabib." Several shots of the viral interaction were shared across social media, including X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, garnering millions of views.
Additionally, security officers were forced to intervene to separate Danis from Makachev's teammates. In response to the incident, UFC President Dana White stated in an interview.

Dana White outlined, "I blame myself for that, actually. They told me about that right before I walked out for the main card, that Dillon Danis was here and he was moving around, sitting in the fighter’s seats, and not sitting in his own seat that he had."
He added, "It never even crossed my mind, as stupid as this could be, that the entire Muslim Brotherhood was here tonight in the first five rows for Islam... and as soon as it broke out, I was over on the other side."
White included his statement assuring the public that they will "never see Dillon Danis at a UFC fight ever again."
Makhachev also said during another interview, "He has to be banned from this country also."
This comes after Islam Makhachev's historic win against Jack Della Maddalena in New York City, where the Dagestan fighter claimed the UFC Welterweight title, making it his second title.
