Former UFC champion Israel Adesanya thinks Darren Till needs to stop being so predictable in his fights.
Till, 29, suffered his third consecutive UFC defeat last weekend when he was choked out by Dricus Du Plessis in Las Vegas after a back and forth fight. 'The Gorilla' was fighting for the first time in over a year after spending time away from the octagon to improve his skills and despite putting up a valiant effort against the South African, he succumbed to a rear-naked choke in the final round.
Adesanya, who lost his middleweight title to Alex Pereira last month, was impressed by certain sequences from Till in the fight but thinks he needs to be more varied with his strikes. Reacting to the fight on his YouTube channel, Adesanya said: “Darren needs to actually like, fight. Don’t just sit there. That’s a mental block. You can’t keep saying, ‘I’m okay,’ because now you’re not okay. He could have got out and had space. Urgency, urgency, urgency.
