“I don’t know why you would say something like that, knowing what I can do to you” – Bo Nickal responds to Darren Till’s ‘cute’ warning, reminds him that the fighter ’embodied’ him

After Bo Nickal earned a UFC contract through another impressive performance in Dana White’s Contender SeriesDarren Till sent a threatening message that has now been answered by the undefeated prospect.

The NCAA Division I fighter made headlines when he decided to make MMA his career choice and has looked sensational ever since. In just three fights, the star has already shown exactly what he’s capable of, drilling each of his opponents from the start of the first round with his arsenal of weapons.

After Bo Nickal’s most recent exit, Darren Till insisted that he can’t wait to find himself inside the octagon in the future and “raise his left hand to his skull.” The comment has not gone down very well with Nickal, 26.

“Man, Darren. Very, very cute. I guess that’s my first impression, it’s nice of you to say that Derek Brunson just absolutely gave you a body. Another fighter, another fighter who’s a tough guy, but I don’t know why. what would you say something like that, knowing what I can do to you. Hopefully we’ll fight in the future and hopefully you’re ready. Good luck.”

Despite showing some good signs on his feet, ‘The Gorilla’ tends to look less than impressive when the fight hits the ground. This was an issue highlighted during his last appearance in the Octagon over a year ago.

While it’s unclear why the Briton decided to call out the elite fighter, it could be due to Nickal’s post-fight speech in which he set his sights on Liverpudlian’s friend and training partner, Khamzat Chimaev.
