UFC Vegas 36 was headlined by Darren Till and Derek Brunson going head to head in a middleweight fight. Till was the favorite going into the fight but ended up losing to Brunson as he submitted him via Rare Naked Choke.
Till took to Instagram sharing photos of former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping and the current UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira.
Till did this to signify he was not going to give up. Even when the media and the fight fans have started to write him off after his recent loss. Bisping and Oliveira were also counted out on many occasions when things were not going in their favor but they beat the odds to come back even stronger. Till hopes to do the same and assures this is not the end of him.
Upon learning about Darren Till’s post the Lightweight champion had some motivational words for Till and this is what he had to say:
The lightweight champion tried to motivate Darren Till asking him to keep his head up and come back stronger.
Till was dominated by Brunson in both round one and round two where Brunson scored multiple takedowns as well.
Till’s only bright moment came in the third round when he got Brunson hurt and went all in for the KO. While rushing in on Brunson he left himself wide open for a takedown and Brunson ended up putting Till in a Rare Naked Choke. Overall, It was a disappointing performance from Till.
