Khamzat Chimaev and Darren Till take a break from training to pose for picture.
Khamzat Chimaev took to Twitter recently to share a morphed image of him and his new training partner Darren Till. The newest bromance in the UFC, Till, and Chimaev have been training together at Allstars Training Center, Sweden.
Till, fresh off a submission loss to Dereck Brunson saw Chimaev tweet “Till do you want to come out here and train with me brother? The doors are open.” and decided that the opportunity to train with the new rising star of the UFC is too good to pass up. While Till trains with Chimaev, he is still associated with his training camp, Team Kaobon.
The chemistry between the two has led to a lot of content for MMA fans, from training footage, workouts, and of course, them winding each other up at all times. The most viral of these has been Chimaev pushing Till during training repeatedly shouting “Come on, fat boy.” Chimaev’s recent tweet of his and Darren’s face morphed together might be the best one yet. ‘Damzat Tillmaev’ is one among the numerous names given to this fusion by fans, and Tillmaev’ is a future champion for sure. Till’s reply to the post ‘Why m8?’ is something that every fan is thinking of themselves.
“(Chimaev) fully believes he’s going to smash every guy and make money, and you need to be around that…, trust me. It’s infectious, especially for a guy like me, who believes that as well,” said Till about Khamzat’s mentality. Chimaev is currently on a 4 fight win streak and will fight Gilbert Burns at UFC 272.

Till is currently working on his wrestling game with Chimaev, one of the best in the sport, as it was his lack of takedown defense that led to his loss to Brunson and Whittaker before that. At the moment Till doesn’t care who his next opponent is but has opined that he could outperform both Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker, after having progressed further with his technique. Till has been in talks with the UFC about his next opponent where Sean Strickland seemed like an exciting fight.
“I’m good. Listen, losses are part of life and you have to take them losses,… I know my future looks very very, bright… I know where im at and people who know, know where I’m at. All the haters, the haters will soon turn into fans. It’s just the way that this game goes,” said Till.
Till further hopes to make his return to the octagon later this year, after having to stand on the sidelines due to an ACL injury suffered by him. He is eager to prove that he is still at the top of the division and wants to capitalize on 2022.
