Jiu Jitsu world champion Dillon Danis joins outpouring of support for 'victim' after sickening video emerges of twisted 'bully' choking him unconscious

Disturbing video has revealed the moment a young boy was knocked unconscious by an alleged bully who put him in a headlock. 

The shocking footage, shared on X by jiu jitsu star Dillon Danis, showed one boy preparing to put another kid in a headlock as he announced: 'If I stay stop, you gotta stop.'

As the alleged attacker wrapped his arms aggressively around the other boy's neck, the victim struggled to escape and pry the bully's arms from around his throat. 

While the boy was placed in a headlock, the cameraman jokingly said 'worldstar' - referencing the website World Star Hip Hop, known for posting fight compilation videos. 

The incident occurred in Fowlerville, Michigan, around 30 miles east of Lansing. The circumstances of the incident are unclear, MailOnline has reached out to the local police and school district for comment on this story. 

The video has been viewed over 5.5 million times. Do you know who either person is in the video?

Danis wrote: 'This makes me sick to my stomach,' in his post on X. 'Could have killed the poor kid. If we find his name, I'll pay for his membership at any local Jiu Jitsu gym,' he continued

Danis has recently been involved in an online spat with former UFC star turned OnlyFans sensation Paige Van Zant, shown here with her husband Austin Vanderford 

Eventually, the bullied boy's body went limp and he fell face first into the dirt - where his bully dropped him. The person videoing burst out laughing. 

Danis wrote: 'This makes me sick to my stomach,' in his post on X. 'Could have killed the poor kid. If we find his name, I'll pay for his membership at any local Jiu Jitsu gym,' he continued. 

Users on X were outraged by the horrific video. One wrote: 'The fact they recorded it and proceeded to say 'worldstar' make this even more disgusting. 

'At least they have already provided evidence for this case. Hope the kid doing the chokehold and the camera man get prison time.' 

Recently Danis, perhaps best known for his role in the post-fight brawl between the corner teams of Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018, has been embroiled in a war of words with UFC fighter turned OnlyFans model Paige VanZant. 

VanZant took to Instagram earlier this month to directly fire back at Danis, as the former submission grappler shared a post on X barely 24 hours earlier, revealing that he can 'ruin' her marriage by bringing up 'two trips to Vegas' after she claimed that he isn't a 'real fighter' during an interview for her upcoming Misfits boxing match against Elle Brooke.

The 30-year-old VanZant was alluding to Danis on Wednesday when asked about her transition from MMA to boxing. Danis boxed once against American YouTuber Logan Paul in October 2023 and lost by disqualification.
