Darren Till calls out ‘stupid’ MMA fans in passionate rant to support Israel Adesanya after shocking KO defeat
Darren Till has branded some MMA fans ‘stupid’ with an ‘IQ of about 10’ following their reaction to Israel Adesanya’s defeat. Adesanya was brutally stopped by Nassourdine Imavov at UFC Saudi Arabia on Saturday night. Adesanya’s pro MMA record now stands at 24-5getty After he was finished by Imavov at UFC Saudi Arabiagetty The defeat marked his third in a row under the UFC banner, meaning he has not won an MMA bout since knocking out Alex Pereira in April 2023. This prompted many MMA fans to say that Adesanya has experienced a significant downfall recently when compared to his time spent at the UFC’s summit only a few years ago. The Nigerian-born New Zealander is a former two-time UFC middleweight champion, having beaten the likes of Robert Whittaker, Yoel Romero and Paulo Costa during his title reign. He lost the belt to Pereira in November 2022 before knocking him out in the rematch five months later, and has since endured three consecutive defeats. Till is a former UFC welterweight title challenger, having lost his one shot at championship gold in Dana White’s promotion after being submitted by Tyron Woodley in September 2018. He did, however, fight in the same division as Adesanya towards the end of his UFC career, and certainly had a lot on his mind following the Saudi Arabia card. “I have just read a comment on an MMA page saying the downfall of Israel Adesanya needs to be studied!” he said in a long rant on X. “Can everyone on here who is not [an] absolute moron actually understand that statement? “I am trying so hard to understand it but can’t… I’m so confused… What downfall? “I’ve seen people comment about downfalls, studies etc… all that s*** like the downfall of Darren Till needs to be studied. Till said Adesanya remains one of the best middleweights in UFC history “I get that. I should have excelled more in the UFC than I did but some certain factors didn’t let me… “But now. I swear I can not even fathom that I have just seen a comment saying Israel Adesanya’s downfall needs to be studied.” Till went on to explain that although he and Adesanya aren’t friends, and he is not his ‘biggest fan’, ‘The Last Stylebender’ looked ‘unbeatable’ during his title reign. “People only cried for the fight between me and him because of styles but facts are facts he was f***ing ruining everyone,” Till added. “He made Paulo Costa look like a baby, who by the way had a war with Yoel Romero. “He absolutely bodied Robert Whittaker. Izzy was a absolute wrecking machine in his day. Adesanya has held the UFC middleweight belt twiceGetty - Contributor “He is without doubt one of the middleweight goats and it’s not even up for debate. “In fact he can lose his next five fights and it wouldn’t change a f***ing thing on his goat status. “But these today kind of MMA fans are so f***ing dumb stupid IQ of about 10 say these things I just look and think oh my f***ing god. Hope is lost. Gang of absolute morons. I’m in utter disbelief by it.” Till concluded by apologising for his ‘big’ rant, while adding that too many MMA fans let their ’emotions take over the facts’. He also used former interim welterweight champion Colby Covington as an example of someone who people hate but is an ‘absolute savage’. Adesanya has enjoyed a legendary career to date, having the second most consecutive middleweight title defences with five behind Anderson Silva, who has 10. After everything the 35-year-old has achieved in the sport, the long-winding road back to the top may not be an appealing proposition for Adesanya, yet MMA fans will still wait eagerly for his next move. But if he does decide to call it quits after his latest defeat then there will surely be a place in the UFC Hall of Fame waiting for him.
