Dillon Danis 'leaks' list of people banned from attending UFC 328 after Dana White warning
Dillon Danis has 'leaked' a list of people he claims are banned from UFC 328 after president Dana White told him to stay away from the event.
Danis, a former Bellator fighter who was once part of Conor McGregor's entourage, has been involved in a series of controversies during his career in mixed martial arts.
The 32-year-old switched to boxing in 2023 and fought Logan Paul at a Misfits event in Manchester, where he was disqualified in round six after attempting an illegal choke and takedown.
In February 2025, he signed up as a replacement fighter to take on KSI after ex-Chelsea defender Wayne Bridge pulled out, but the bout was later cancelled.

He was given a lifetime ban from the UFC in November for his involvement in a crowd brawl with members of Islam Makhachev's team at UFC 322.
"You will never see Dillon Danis at a UFC fight ever again," White told reporters. "Yeah, you'll never see him at another fight. I could've prevented this tonight, and I messed up."

During an interview with influencer and MMA content creator Nina Drama on Thursday, the UFC president warned that Danis must stay away from UFC 328 - which will be main-evented by Sean Strickland and Khamzat Chimaev - for his own safety.
After being shown a clip of November's brawl by Drama, he said: "Well, Dillon. If you show up on Saturday, man, the Muslim Brotherhood will be so focused on you, they won't be able to go after Sean."
In response, Danis posted a story update to his 7.3 million Instagram followers, which he claimed shows a list of people banned from the UFC 328.
Danis features as the first name in the list, while the names of former MMA star Mark Hunt and controversial influencer Sneako are also listed.
It is unclear as to whether any part of the list is genuine or whether any of the names - clearly, aside from Danis - are actually banned from UFC 328.
