Trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Danis previously competed in the Pan Jiu-Jitsu No-Gi Championship.

Danis then faced Max Humphreys at Bellator 222 and won via armbar in the first round. He was involved in a melee at UFC 229 after Khabib Nurmagomedov proceeded to throw his mouthpiece and then scaled the cage and appeared to jump towards him. He was subsequently fined $7,500 and suspended for 7 months following the incident.

Throughout his career, Danis has become the subject of many controversies due to his behaviour.
