He added, “I mean, the last fight was very unfortunate because it was only like two or three weeks before where I broke my collarbone. I mean, if it was 10 weeks before the fight and I broke my collarbone, I was definitely still fighting. But it’s just it reminds me a lot of like when Dominick Cruz was getting a lot of setbacks and injuries. You’ve just got to come through them, and you’ve got to come through them, and here I am a few days before, and I’m a very happy man.”
However, ‘The Gorilla’ will now face the #5 Derek Brunson and it will surely excite many to see how Till performs in his return. A win against Brunson will surely raise Till’s rank in the division.
