Daniel Cormier: Darren Till lost because he threw a combo that only works for Conor McGregor
Darren Till fought the biggest fight of his career at UFC 228 two weekends ago in a title bout against welterweight champion Tyron Woodley. “The Gorilla” lost via second round stoppage, when he was forced into submission via a D’arce choke.
But what led to the choke was a right hand counter from Woodley from Till’s lead right uppercut. And according to Daniel Cormier who was present at the broadcast table during the fight that night, it was a very crucial mistake that should have been avoided altogether.
“Darren Till threw one shot,” the UFC double-champ said (transcript via BJPenn.com). “When he finally decided to go — I’ve always hated this combination.”
