After a poor run of form, the immensely popular Darren Till opted to be released from the UFC. He looks to rebuild and return in future since his release. Till is rumoured to have various offers from across the sporting world.
YouTube star Logan Paul is a rumoured opponent next for Till in a boxing bout. Many times Till has mentioned he will be looking to make money whilst away from the UFC and explore different avenues.
Dillon Danis Comments on Darren Till
Infamous for making comments and ‘trolling’ many within the MMA community Dillon Danis tweeted out in response to the rumoured Paul vs Till fight. In recent times Danis has had a back-and-forth in the studio with Ariel Helwani on TheMMAHour. He has, unsurprisingly, pulled out of a boxing match against YouTube sensation KSI. The brit will attend UFC 286 at the O2 Arena this weekend.
“He ran from me to go fight a 1-5 Darren Till”
Danis tweeted.
In his interview on the TheMacLife YouTube channel Darren Till had this to say:
“What’s he on about, Dillon? I’ve never said one thing about him. His little gang, his little mates from like Conor, I know all his mates from Ireland. I know them all, I get on really well with them all. So what’s he talking s*** for like? I can’t physically or mentally respond to the guy because he argues and trolls everyone. For me, why would I even get worked up about a guy like that, who pulled out of a fight with KSI like? What am I gonna gain from responding to Dillon Danis? Like, what mate? What?”

TheMacLife Interview
Till not only addresses the comments made by Danis but also spoke on the upcoming UFC 286 event in London. He had his predictions for both the main and co main going down Saturday night in the O2 arena.
“I think Leon is going to do him mate. I really do. I think Leon’s in his prime now, he’s firing on all cylinders looks very sharp. I think the knockout could still be a little bit in Usman’s head, so yeah I think Leon’s going to win.”
“Just from what I have seen live I just think he has got too much for Gaethje. I think Fiziev is going to win that technically, I think he is going to stop him in the second.”

Fan favourite and good friend of Darren, Khamzat Chimaev, was brought up in the interview as fans are eager to see him return to the octagon. Two potential opponents for Chimaev are Robert Whitaker at 185 lbs and Colby Covington at 170 lbs. The latter made an appearance in London as the backup for the welterweight title bout.
Till appears in good spirits as he does in most interviews, and all fans look forward to seeing what the future holds for ‘The Gorilla’.
