Darren Till's future inside the octagon has been a bit of a mystery since he lost to Jorge Masvidal.
The former #1 contender to the welterweight title was coming off a loss to then champion Tyron Woodley at UFC 228; Till has previously teased moving up to middleweight, stating that jumping to the 185-pound division was something he considered during his interview with
MMAJunkie:
“I do have to think about them things,” Till said.
“I wouldn’t be small at 185. I’d be right in the mix in there with them guys. The great guy, the interim champ Israel (Adesanya) is a great fighter. The champ (Robert Whittaker) is a good fighter. There’s a few beasts. The one guy who is a scary guy is Yoel (Romero).”
The England native seems to be headed into the middleweight class as he posted this picture that says
“Come den motherf*cking middleweights”.
There’s no word on when Till could return to the octagon; however, his first fight in the middleweight – should it happen – will be interesting.
