Darren Till and Ian Machado Garry Exchange Verbal Jabs Online

The exchange began after Ian Machado Garry suggested in an interview that Darren Till spends more time talking than fighting, labeling him a social media-focused figure. Garry did acknowledge that he considers Till a game opponent, noting he has watched his past performances.

Till responded to these claims on X, asserting that his activity level and finish rate in the last two years exceed Garry’s. He also criticized Garry's public persona, referencing past comments where he previously claimed the Irishman tarnishes his own brand with his public statements.

Currently, both fighters are without a booked bout. Ian Machado Garry last competed against Islam Makhachev at UFC 330 in August, suffering a unanimous decision loss. Darren Till recently recorded a unanimous decision victory over Yoel Romero at BKFC 94.
