Darren Till on ‘stale’ UFC 248 main event, ‘unbelievable’ co-main: ‘Give them five million each’

Darren Till wasn’t bowled over by Israel Adesanya and Yoel Romero’s meeting at the weekend, but was nearly left speechless by the epic encounter between Weili Zhang and Joanna Jedrzejczyk in the co-main event.

The Liverpudlian middleweight had a keen eye on the main event title bout having got off to great start in the division with a win over Kelvin Gastelum last year. However, he admitted that what transpired between Adesanya and Romero was not what most people were expecting.

“I just think it was stale,” Till told MMA Fighting’s Eurobash podcast.
