Darren Till is coming to terms with his second loss in a row.

Darren Till is looking to reevaluate things following a second straight loss. The Liverpool fighter was knocked out for the first time in his career by Jorge Masvidal at UFC London last weekend and in an Instagram post, he described how he followed up the fight (by going to Whistler), and what he’s looking to do going forward:

“Last Saturday was a tough night against a strong opponent, @gamebredfighter.

Fight game is a tough one.

Few things need refocusing now, feel like I lost me self the past year & haven’t been fully focused to my craft!

I’ve had a week in this amazing place Canada to revitalise with my thoughts!

I’ll be back a different animal, @teamkaobon is still the best coach & person in this world & we will dominate for years to come.

Can not wait to be back at the gym Monday evolving and focusing like never before. I owe it to myself!

Peace motherf—kers”

The 26-year-old Till (17-2-1, 5-2-1 UFC) started his UFC career by going undefeated in six fights, but was stopped by welterweight champion Tyron Woodley in September. Despite coming up short against Masvidal, he did earn his third UFC performance bonus for the headlining fight in London.
