“When I say this from my heart, I’m truly gutted about my relationship with Mike Perry. Cause we were good friends, and we were DMing each other and it was fun. I don’t know what happened, I must have crossed a line.”

The genesis of the feud began when Darren Till made a spoof website to troll his former friend. Moreover, he began to jokingly pass comments towards ‘Platinum’ Perry’s girlfriend over his social media platforms. The instances were not received well by Perry who briskly cut ties with the former title challenger.

“He owes me money for the rent cause I’m living in his head rent-free. He owes me some money. I wish him the best, I hope he’s okay.”

The news of their heated rivalry became publicized within the MMA community when Perry spoke out against Till. On numerous occasions, the Welterweight had fighting words for Till who appeared to be enjoying himself. The Englishman is one of the biggest social media trolls given the state of his Twitter and Instagram accounts.

The two former friends don’t seem to be on the path to making amends anytime soon. Chiefly, the move to another weight class has helped temper the rising vitriol the two had for each other. The MMA community awaits to see whether reconciliation is in ever on the cards in the future.
