Darren Till won’t fight at UFC Fight Night 208, and now he won’t serve as a cornerman either.
The wheels were in motion to corner Chris Curtis, the fighter who replaced him on the card, but Till changed his mind. Till originally agreed to make the walk with Curtis for his bout vs. Jack Hermansson, but on Thursday he revealed he’s decided not to as it would be “disrespectful.”
“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,” Till wrote in a statement on Twitter. “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 [sic] have to comment below this post I’ll be reading and laughing.”
