Once again, Darren Till is the subject of heated controversy among MMA fans, but this time it’s over the release of a private WhatsApp conversation. The former UFC fighter shared a screenshot of what looks to be a conversation he had with boxer Rocky Fielding, prompting people to ridicule him.
Till was just let go by UFC because his performance had drastically declined over the previous four years. Dricus du Plessis was the opponent in Darren’s final fight at UFC 282, however, The Gorilla lost for the third time in a row. The South African fighter’s dominating submission victory has dropped the British fighter to 1-5 in his last 6 cage appearances.
How did fans respond to Darren Till exposing his conversation with Rocky Fielding?
Before facing Stillknocks, the former UFC champion put in a lot of effort to be back in peak condition. Till is currently out of action due to a rough period in his UFC career, but many believe that his deliberate disclosure of his conversation with Rocky Fielding may be a clue that he should give boxing a shot next.

According to another user, “No one’s trying to see a washed UFC fighter who’s 1-5 in his last 6 fights get starched out in another sport for a paycheque. So much for missing out on seeing your kid for legacy & greatness.”
Marc pointed out how unethical it is to leak someone’s private message online by saying, “Look a right bell end. Rockys always seemed a good lad. Leaking private messages is helmet behaviour too.”
