Darren Till will not be cornering Chris Curtis in his matchup this weekend against Jack Hermansson at UFC:Fight Night 208, at the O2 Arena in London.
Till was forced out of his long awaited comeback, in his hometown due to an injury. He tore his ACL when he fought Derek Brunson back in September of 2021. His ACL was damaged before the fight, causing his coaches and teammates to advise against him fighting.
Till started off his UFC career undefeated with a record of 5-0-1, which included some big wins over Stephen ‘Wonderboy’ Thompson and Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone in their primes. The UFC saw his impressive wins alongside his excellent mic presence and ability to sell fights, and gifted him a title shot in just his sixth fight in the UFC. In hindsight, the shot may have came a little too quick, as he was severely outmatched against Tyron Woodley. After that loss, he would go on to lose three of his next four fights. He was even knocked out cold against Jorge Masvidal.
“I won’t be cornering Chris this weekend at UFC London, I feel it would be disrespectful to the whole situation after pulling out of the fight to then turn up to the corner of the fight. I wish Chris the best of luck he’s a proper guy & we trained together & he can do good things, I also wish Jack the best of luck may both men have a good fight. I also look forward to hearing what all the couch potato’s have to comment below this post I’ll be reading & laughing. To the people that messaged me saying keep my head up etc. it’s massively appreciated but the only problem right now is that my body is brittle through years of hard torment day in day out to the body.” Till tweeted out
Curtis looks to continue his fantastic year, as he looks to get his fourth win in just 9 months. He also tweeted out his thoughts on Till not cornering him this weekend.
Jack Hermansson was not surprised to see Darren Till pull out of their scheduled bout. Fan favorite Till was set to mark his return to competition against Hermansson on Saturday, Jul. 21 for UFC London at O2 Arena. However, “The Gorilla” was forced to withdraw from their planned outing due to a leg injury. With […]
Jack Hermansson was not surprised to see Darren Till pull out of their scheduled bout.
Fan favorite Till was set to mark his return to competition against Hermansson on Saturday, Jul. 21 for UFC London at O2 Arena. However, “The Gorilla” was forced to withdraw from their planned outing due to a leg injury.
With Till being out, Chris Curtis stepped in as the replacement for the co-main event.
During the UFC London media day, Jack Hermansson talked to the reporters about having to fight a new opponent. Given Till’s unfortunate history of pulling out of fights due to injuries, Hermansson was not surprised to see it happen again.
“I kind of anticipated it through the whole camp,” Hermansson said. “I don’t know why, I just had a bad feeling about it — maybe because the first time I wanted to fight him he declined the fight, second time he pulled from the fight, third time he didn’t even announce the fight himself.
“I couldn’t see any sign of him fighting, so I just had a bad feeling about it with me through the whole camp. To be honest, I wasn’t surprised.” (ht Mike Heck/MMA Fighting)
Hermansson was previously booked to face Till in the headlining bout of UFC Vegas 16 in Dec. 2020. Till ended up pulling out of the contest and Kevin Holland was matched up with “The Joker”. Then, Holland had a positive COVID-19 test and was also forced out of the bout. Hermansson was game still and accepted the fight with another replacement, Marvin Vettori, who would beat him by a decision.
While it’s not a preference, fighters have to be ready for anything in this crazy sport, and Hermansson understands that part of the game.
“It’s a big part of the MMA game. It happens all the time,” Hermansson said. “You just need to be ready for anything.
“Chris is a great opponent. He has a lot of experience, a lot of fights, a lot of wins, heavy hands, won all his fights in the UFC, eight-fight win streak. I think he’s as good as it gets. He’s one of those guys trying to climb into the rankings and he’s right up there. He’s a great opponent.”

Making a short notice co-headlining appearance next weekend, Chris Curtis has revealed the middleweight contender he is replacing; Darren Till – will feature in his corner for his UFC London showdown against Jack Hermansson.
Replacing the injured Till on just over two weeks’ notice, Ohio native, Curtis attempts to land the most high-profile victory of his Octagon tenure to date – drawing the #8 ranked contender, Hermansson at The O2 Arena in the English capital.
Last time out, Curtis improved to 3-0 since his November Octagon bow at Madison Square Garden, outlasting Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu ace, Rodolfo Vieira over the course of three rounds to land a unanimous decision victory at UFC Vegas 57 at the end of last month.
Prior to his win against Vieira, Curtis had stopped the highly-touted, Brendan Allen, as well as Dana White’s Contender Series alum, Phil Hawes with strikes – with the Syndicate MMA trainee improving his winning spree to eight straight fights.
Revealing his past relationship with one-time UFC welterweight title challenger, Till, Curtis confirmed that the Team Kaobon staple, as well as PFL mainstay, Brendan Loughnane will join him in his corner, alongside head coach, Eric Nicksick.
“I’ve known Darren Till for a little bit – we’ve trained together,” Chris Curtis told Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour. “Actually, he’s gonna be in the corner, it’s happening.”
“I think I’m going to have my coach, Eric (Nicksick) and Nate (Pettit) – then I’ll have Darren Till and Brendan Loughnane in my corner,” Chris Curtis explained. (Transcribed by Middleeasy)
Facing stiff competition in the form of former Cage Warriors champion and perennial contender, Hermansson, the AllStars MMA staple managed to defeat Edmen Shahbazyan in his most recent professional victory, before suffering a split decision loss against recent UFC 276 feature, Sean Strickland in a February UFC Apex main event bout.
