Darren Till fought off fatigue and jetlag to record arguably the biggest victory of his career when he took on Kelvin Gastelum last Saturday night at UFC 244 in his 185-pound debut with the promotion. Former middleweight champ Robert Whittaker praised Till’s performance and believes it was his best fight since making his debut for the promotion.

Till arrived only two days before the fight after running into visa issues, but put that aside to outpoint Gastelum over the three rounds.
