Dana White doesn’t think Darren Till’s stock ‘dropped at all’ after UFC 282 loss to Dricus Du Plessis

LAS VEGAS – UFC president Dana White was impressed by Darren Till despite another setback.

Till (18-5-1 MMA, 6-5-1 UFC) was submitted in Round 3 by Dricus Du Plessis (18-2 MMA, 4-0 UFC) in their middleweight bout this past Saturday at UFC 282. Their entertaining back-and-forth battle earned Fight of Night.

Du Plessis stormed Till right off the bat and was close to getting the stoppage in Round 1. But Till weathered the early storm and turned things around in Round 2 before Du Plessis caught second wind and submitted him in Round 3. Till, a former welterweight title challenger, is now 1-5 in his past six fights, but White doesn’t think the loss impacts him that much.
