Till is disappointed with the
UFC’s recent state of affairs.
Till slammed the UFC over lackluster cards, which he claims he
doesn’t even watch anymore. “The Gorilla” believes his former boss,
Dana White, is no longer focused on the UFC. Till further went off
on Dana White for his handling of the media. White recently snapped
at a reporter who brought up criticism against AI use in UFC
promotional videos. Till says White needs to put his ego aside and
respond sincerely to questions.
Lacking Intrigue
“I do like Dana,” Till said on “The Ariel Helwani Show.” “But I
just think Dana’s ego is getting a little bit out of control. I
think he’s totally switched off from the UFC. I don’t even watch
the UFC anymore. I couldn’t tell you half the people who fight
there. The events aren’t juicy no more. I’m pissed off, to be
honest, with the media side of things. Every time Dana’s in a
scrum, it’s like these reporters are scared to say the real thing.
And when they do ask questions, Dana’s all sort of like, ‘Who gives
a s—t?’ We give a s—t. I give a s—t, so give us a f—-ing answer,
baldy, and take your ego away.”
Till (18-5) parted ways with the UFC on a three-fight slump in
2022. While the Englishman promised that he would return to the
promotion, the UFC top brass didn’t sound very optimistic about the
idea. Till has since racked up three straight wins at Misfits
Boxing, winning the title against Luke
Rockhold last year. The Liverpudlian recently parted ways with
Misfits to sign with Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, where he
is expected to make his debut against Aaron
Chalmers at BKFC 90 on May 30 in Birmingham, England.
