UFC Middleweight Darren Till and UFC Welterweight Khamzat Chimaev know no bounds of their bromance as well as joking, even if it means joking about killing UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou. Till went to Switzerland last month to train with the fighters at All-Stars Training Center in order to elevate his fighting style and add more tools to his game in order to get back on the winning track.

Till is 1-4 in his last 5 fights and therefore needs back to back wins in order to be considered as a legit contender for a title shot in the UFC middleweight division, whose current champion is Israel Adesanya. Chimaev on the other hand is 4-0 in the UFC with possibly the biggest hype he is carrying on his shoulder in UFC history.

Chimaev is now going to face a former title challenger in just his fifth UFC fight in Gilbert Burns at UFC 273 in April. With the kind of predictions many UFC athletes like Alexander Gustaffson, Ilir Latifi and Henry Cejudo have given regarding Chimaev’s future, it seems like there’s no stopping until the Chechnian becomes double champion in the UFC.

On the Youtube channel of Blockasset– an athlete NFT and Tokenisation platform- Chimaev and Till are seen hanging out in a shooting range after training where at one moment Till practices shooting automatic and shotguns at the range while Chimaev waits for his turn. Meanwhile, both share a brief conversation, particularly, they crack a dark joke about UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou. Chimaev and Till are a part of SMESH BROS, a mini docuseries produced by Blockasset itself.

“Give me the guns. I’m gonna shoot Ngannou,” says Chimaev and Till replies “Oh you beat him easy!” and Khamzat responds with laughter followed by saying “How you gonna knock him out bro!? You have to use something brother. If they give you someone I will kill him as well. Then nobody wanna fight you, they get killed you know.”

What do you make of Chimaev and Till cracking out dark but hilarious jokes on fighters like Ngannou? Are you entertained by the duo like never before? What do you think is next for Chimaev if he wins, or loses the Gilbert Burns fight? Also, who do you think should welcome back Darren Till on his return to fighting?
