Darren Till Wants UFC to Induct Tyron Woodley’s Mom into Hall of Fame
Follow Us
UFC middleweight fighter Darren Till will be making his return to the ring against Derek Brunson later this year. The former was scheduled to face Marvin Vettori in April this year but had to be replaced one week prior to the fight.
He suffered a collarbone injury and Kevin Holland fought Vettori instead of him. Although the injury has kept him out of action from the octagon, it can’t separate Till from expressing his views on social media.

It is a well-known fact that Tyron Woodley’s mom is respected by everyone. Even by the former’s opponents. She has been often seen hugging and consoling Woodley’s fight opponents. Recently, she was seen hugging Woodley’s next opponent, Jake Paul’s mother.
Till took a notice of it and appreciated Deborah Woodley over the same. He wrote, “Petition for Tyron Woodley’s mum to be inducted into the @ufc Hall of Fame, Just seen a photo of her hugging Jake Paul’s mum & I swear she is the kindest person. A nice tweet from me for once but well worth it.”
Mama Woodley is a first-ballot Hall of Famer 🙌
