Darren Till reveals he's only seen his newborn daughter once because of UFC 282 training camp: "I’ve cut no corners, I’ve absolutely given my all"

Cole Shelton - December 8, 2022

Darren Till has made a lot of sacrifices for his UFC 282 training camp. Till is returning for the first time in over a year as he takes on Dricus Du Plessis. Given he is on a two-fight losing skid, the Brit made some changes to his training, most notably going out to Thailand. With that, he says he has only seen his newborn child once, the day she was born. After that, he flew to Thailand to begin training camp.

Darren Till offers prediction for possible Khamzat Chimaev vs. Colby Covington matchup: "He'd be the powerful one"

Josh Evanoff - December 8, 2022

If Khamzat Chimaev and Colby Covington end up fighting, Darren Till knows who he’d pick to win. ‘Borz’ has been out of action since September at UFC 279, when he faced Kevin Holland. In that outing, the Chechen scored a first-round submission win over ‘Trail Blazer’. However, that wasn’t the bout he was expecting that weekend.

Chael Sonnen believes Bo Nickal will end up fighting Darren Till at UFC 282

Harry Kettle - October 6, 2022

Chael Sonnen has explained how and why Bo Nickal could end up fighting Darren Till at UFC 282 in December. While he may not be on the best run of form right now, Darren Till is still one of the most recognisable names in the middleweight division. ‘The Gorilla’ has made a habit of making waves through social media and as we look ahead to the next couple of months, he has the opportunity to finally get back in the win column when he goes head to head with Dricus du Plessis at UFC 282.

Bo Nickal confused after receiving callout from Darren Till: “It’s a cute thing of you to say, having just got absolutely bodied by Derek Brunson”

Harry Kettle - September 30, 2022

Bo Nickal was left feeling pretty confused this week after hearing that Darren Till had issued a callout to him on social media. While he hasn’t exactly been on the best run of form lately, Darren Till is still viewed by many as one of the most entertaining figures in mixed martial arts. The Liverpudlian knows how to get people talking and later this year, he’ll attempt to get back to winning ways when he collides with Dricus du Plessis at UFC 282.

Darren Till believes he has the tools to defeat Bo Nickal: “Drive the left hand through his skull”

Zain Bando - September 28, 2022

Darren Till was glued to Dana White’s Contender Series, like many UFC fans. With that being said, Bo Nickal was the star of the season finale, as he only needed 52 seconds to finish Donovan Beard via triangle choke in the night’s featured attraction. This left White no choice but to sign the 26-year-old phenomenon. Nickal (3-0) was an All-American wrestler and NCAA standout at Penn State. He has only competed in professional MMA since June and has already made a name for himself in such a short period. It’s safe to assume that he is one of the most sought-after UFC prospects ever, as he competes in the middleweight division and trains out of one of American Top Team’s gyms in Happy Valley, PA.

Darren Till has reacted to Khabib Nurmagomedov’s criticism of Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 279. It was just last Friday, September 9th, that Chimaev missed weight by 7.5 pounds sending the UFC into a tailspin trying to figure out their main card match-up.

Darren Till expects Khamzat Chimaev to move up to middleweight but confident he "can make welterweight comfortably"

Cole Shelton - September 14, 2022

Darren Till still believes his training partner Khamzat Chimaev can make welterweight. At UFC 279, Chimaev missed weight by 7.5lbs for his welterweight fight against Nate Diaz. That forced the UFC to change the entire card around and Chimaev ended up fighting and beating Kevin Holland. However, after the event, Dana White said the Swede will now likely go up to middleweight, and for Till he believes that is the right move but believes Chimaev can still make welterweight.

Cole Shelton - September 1, 2022

Marvin Vettori isn’t a fan of Darren Till. Vettori and Till were supposed to fight back in April of 2021, but the Brit was forced out of the contest.
