Uriah Hall Tells Darren Till: “I’ll Fight You In Your Hometown” | Social Media Roundup
Both Uriah Hall and Darren Till are coming off pretty devastating losses in the UFC and the seed may have just been planted for a fight between the two middleweight contenders — this and much more on Friday’s social media roundup.
Uriah Hall calls out Darren Till
UFC middleweight contenders Uriah Hall and Darren Till are both coming off pretty devastating and damaging losses.
Hall recently lost to the in form Sean Strickland and Till was dominated and submitted by Derek Brunson who now seems to be a legitimate contender to Israel Adesanya.
With both fighters coming off bad losses and not knowing what is next, a fight between the two makes perfect sense and it seems that Uriah Hall also believe that.
See the Tweet below to see what Hall had to say in his call out of the Scouser, Till.
@darrentill2 bruh I’m giving you all the leverage you need I’ll fight u in your hometown … no easy task —-

Hall told Till “I’ll fight u in your hometown.”
This is a smart move from Hall to try and get the fight against Till, as Till fighting in Liverpool will always be a huge draw for the UFC.
Is Hall vs Till a fight you would like to see in the near future?
