Ben Askren has been digging into former UFC welterweight title challenger Darren Till quite a bit lately.

The Englishman is preparing to main event UFC London against Jorge Masvidal this weekend (Sat. March 16, 2019). For the past several weeks, Askren has been poking fun at Till and teasing a future clash with “The Gorilla” should he emerge victorious.

However, in effort not to count “Gamebred” out just yet, Askren also claims he has beef with Masvidal, and would be happy to fight him if he were to win Saturday night. Askren had this to say on Twitter:

“I know I have been picking in @darrentill2 a lot, but @GamebredFighter I think you suck too. Best of luck Saturday guys.”

“I actually don’t like @GamebredFighter bc I hammered him at ATT when I was training MMA for 2 months and he wants to pretend it didn’t happen. I don’t like liars.”

Askren comes off a successful UFC debut at the UFC 235 pay-per-view (PPV) two weeks ago. He survived an early onslaught from former 170-pound king Robbie Lawler to secure a first-round submission win. Albeit an extremely controversial one.

Now, “Funky” will be in attendance for UFC London this weekend, hoping to face off with the winner of Till vs. Masvidal and set up his next UFC bout.

Michael Bisping wants to squash the beef that he has with Jorge Masvidal and has the perfect location to do so.

Their history dates all the way back to 2017 once Masvidal and Bisping ran into each other at the fighter hotel in New York City ahead of UFC 217. This is where they got into a second altercation the next day and since then, they have been trading words. There was even another altercation at UFC Shanghai.

Masvidal is slated to fight Darren Till in the headliner of the upcoming UFC London show. The former UFC middleweight champion took to his podcast where he offered to squash the beef while in the city.

“I hope I see him in London,” Bisping said on his Believe You Me podcast (H/T to MMAFighting). “I hope I see him in London so I can just walk over and say, ‘Hey, listen, can we just end this bullsh*t?’ Because as I’ve said, I don’t know the guy! I don’t know him and he doesn’t know me. I’m not against Masvidal anymore,” Bisping said. “I’ve got no issue with him. I never had.”

“Let’s see how he behaves in London. Now that I’m with ESPN and not Fox, when we used to travel to the arenas for Fox, Fox always put us up in a separate hotel – a very, very nice, five-star bougie hotel I might add. Now we’re in UFC hotel, so we’re surrounded by all the fighters and stuff like that. So no doubt I’ll be seeing him around fight week. So let’s see how all that goes. If there’s another interaction, if he’s trying to start a fight with me in the lobby like he did in New York, and in Shanghai, and in London. [But] I think that ship has sailed.”

Despite recent redemption in Bisping’s career featuring a late-career resurgence including wins over Anderson Silva, Luke Rockhold, and Dan Henderson. His last two fights didn’t go the way he wanted. Bisping lost to former UFC two-division champ Georges St-Pierre by submission in the main event of the UFC 217 last November.
