Former UFC middleweight champion, Michael Bisping and Darren Till have been firing shots at each other on Twitter. The exchange started after a video of Bisping surfaced where the Brit was yelling at a cameraman after losing his luggage. Till proceeded to call ‘The Count’ a drama queen.

Bisping then asked Till what he thinks of the fight between Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley this weekend. However, there was a subtle dig involved from Bisping as he reminded ‘The Gorilla’ about his loss to Tyron Woodley. “So what we saying @darrentill2 is the YouTuber gonna get revenge for you this weekend or what?” wrote Bisping.

Welle all have to watch closely. Oh shit sorry bro forgot about the eye thing,” Till replied, taking a dig at Bisping’s eye injury.

Mate leave off with the eye jokes. I’d rather have one than have 2 so close together,” Bisping proceeded to reply.

He then also posted a meme mocking Till’s appearance.

Fans seemed to have enjoyed the hilarious exchange between the duo. Both fighters are considered as two of the biggest stars in the history of British MMA.

Till will be finally making his return to the UFC Octagon against Derek Brunson next month. ‘The Gorilla’ hasn’t competed since his loss to Robert Whittaker in fight island. He was booked several times in the meantime. However, injuries delayed his potential return.

He is 1-1 since moving up to the 170 lbs division of the UFC. The British fighter will look to challenge for a world title at a second division. He has previously fought Tyron Woodley at UFC 228 for the welterweight strap. But that ended in a submission loss for him. However, he gained some valuable experience with a world championship fight that can certainly come in handy the next time he gets the chance.
