Danis stated:

“I’ve known Luke for a long time. He’s a lazy c***. He doesn’t train. He’s a p***y.

 

“He tried to jump over a table; he’s lucky he didn’t get to me because I would choke him out in a second.

 

“I used to train with him. He was a little fanboy.

“He always asked me for help with fight preparation. ‘Oh, please help me with my preparation.’

 

“And now he’s turned against me. So f*** it, Darren Till will knock his head off.”
