UFC 244 video recap: Darren Till takes split decision against Kelvin Gastelum in uneventful fight

In the co-main event of UFC 244, Darren Till was succesful in his middleweight debut defeating Kelvin Gastelum by split decision.

What was the high point of the fight?

Both men started the fight very patient on the feet, showing great respect for each other’s striking abilities. Gastelum tried to find success in the clinch but Till did well to break free and attack the lead leg of Gastelum with some heavy leg kicks.

Other than an eye poke from Gastelum briefly halting the action, the second round was much the same with Till turning the fight in his favour by continuing to chop down Gastelum’s front leg.
