After Till, Israel Adesanya was also a guest on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani. Therefore, when asked about his reaction to the comments made by Till. Adesanya replied, “Ah, Darren, Darren, in case I didn’t know. We don’t talk all the time, but we talk often. We’re cool. But he just has to win first.”
“I’ve laid it out to him so many times, and he just keeps flopping. Like, Jesus Christ, get it f*cking together, Darren. So he can’t talk unless he wins first, and to win the way I’ve been winning in this division is not an easy task. So pick a number and get in line, son.”
