Darren Till and Cody Garbrandt have heartwarming interaction on social media after 'No Love' lends his boxing gloves to 'The Gorilla'
Cody Garbrandt recently surprised Darren Till by gifting a pair of boxing gloves to 'The Gorilla'. Till took to social media to thank 'No Love' for his gesture and also revealed the story behind the gift.
The Liverpool native said that he was in need of new boxing gloves and Garbrandt obliged him by giving his own to Till's friend:
"I was training at the UFC Performance Institute today & I made a joke to Cody Garbrandt about how my gloves were ripped to shreds & that I needed new ones. I’ve came home to my house & little did I know he gave his gloves he was hitting pads with to my friend. It’s the little things that make the biggest impact, Thank you brother," wrote Darren Till.
In the comments section of Till's post, Garbrandt praised 'The Gorilla' for his training at the gym and expressed his excitement for the 29-year-old's upcoming fight.
"We will get you a set out brother!! Looking sharp pumped for your performance!"
Like Till, Garbrandt is currently going through a rough patch in the UFC. The former bantamweight champion has managed to secure only one win in his last six fights. What's more concerning is the fact that four out of those five losses have come via knockout.
In his last outing, 'No Love' dropped down to flyweight for the first time against Kai Kara-France at UFC 269. That venture proved to be unsuccessful as the 31-year-old was knocked out in the very first round.
If 'No Love' suffers a couple more losses in the UFC, concerns regarding his viability as a fighter may cause alarm to the promotion, as well as MMA fans around the world.
What's next for Darren Till?
UFC middleweight Darren Till's next UFC outing will take place on December 10 as he will take on Dricus du Plessis at UFC 282.
The event will take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada and will be headlined by a title fight between Jan Blachowicz and Magomed Ankalaev.
Till is going through a tumultuous time in the UFC at the moment. 'The Gorilla' has lost four of his last five bouts and multiple recent injuries have also caused him to stay out of action for over a year.
But the 29-year-old now appears to be in good shape and will be looking to turn things around at UFC 282.
