Darren Till doesn’t understand why fighters get “offended” by UFC President Dana White: “What are you getting your feeling hurt for?”
Former UFC fighter Darren Till doesn’t understand why fighters get offended by the words of Dana White.
White has been the face of the UFC dating back since his purchase in 2001. During that time, the boss has made headlines for the right and for the wrong reasons. White is often a negative topic of conversation in the media, whether it be fans, analysts, or his own active roster criticizing him.
White’s most recent spat came with the then UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou, who failed to re-sign with the company, resulting in the Cameroonian’s departure. Since then, White has poked jabs at Ngannou, stating he wants to ‘fight lesser opponents and make more money.’
Although most fighters who leave the UFC have a bad word to say about the man in charge, one former active UFC competitor looks at things through a slighty different lens.

They happily agreed to release me out of contract which I appreciate.

Till sat down in a recent sit-down interview with iFL TV’s Kugan Cassius and stressed to the audience that he and White left on good terms. The former UFC welterweight title challenger also emphasized that fighters must understand White’s promoter role.
