“Ariel Helvani” has claimed yet another victim. This time, it is British mixed martial artist Darren Till. The UFC Welterweight fighter posted an image of a cup, wishing followers a good morning. Well everyone, “except that b**** Carole Baskin.” 

His post prompted replied from both “Dana White” and “Helvani.”

Darren Till responds to fake Dana White

The post is a shot at Baskin, an animal rights activist. She is prominently positioned as an “evil” person in the recent Tiger King series on Netflix. Till certainly believes it to be true. The fun began when Till assumed Dana White replied to his tweet. 

“White” said he hoped the coffee would get Till ready for his next fight. The Twitterati were quick to notice the fake account, as there was a noticeable lack of a blue tick next to the name. Also, the ‘v’ after the name indicates that it is a play on the fake “Ariel Helvani” account. Users were quick to jump in with their two cents. 

Many pointed out the grammar error in the tweet.

Darren Till responded to the fake Dana White saying he’s ready. Till is due for a return to the Octagon. The Middleweight’s last fight was a split decision win over Kelvin Gastelum in November. 

This prompted “Ariel Helvani” to join in and praise Till. 

Does Darren Till know that it is a fake account? If yes, he is certainly providing fans with an abundance of entertainment. If not, he needs to get up to speed as the Ariel Helwani parody account has caused problems all weekend, most notably with Daniel Cormier. The former heavyweight champion believed a tweet by the fake Dana White, claiming him and Russian leader Vladimir Putin reached an agreement permitting ‘The Eagle’ Khabib Nurmagomedov to fly to the USA for UFC 249. 

UFC 249 has been confirmed with Tony Ferguson fighting Justin Gaethje for the Interim Lightweight Championship at an undisclosed location.
