Fans react to Darren Till being a dead ringer for "fu**ed-up looking" food
MMA fans have been reacting to an image of an Angus steak that some believe resembles UFC middleweight Darren Till.
'The Gorilla' last stepped into the octagon at UFC 282 where he faced off against Dricus Du Plessis. The 29-year-old was unable to turn around his poor form in the cage, being largely outclassed by the South African before being submitted in the third round. The loss for the Liverpudlian means he is now 1-5 in his last six appearances.
During the bout against Du Plessis, Till suffered significant damage to his face in the first round, which fans now hilariously believe has made him resemble an image from the "f*cked up looking food" Twitter account:
"Looks like Darren Till"

Another fan responded to the image and compared the meat product to Russian leader Vladimir Putin:
"Looks like he invaded Ukraine"
@callumjohnston0 looks like he invaded Ukraine
One fan suggested Darren Till has moved from the NFT market to the meat industry, suggesting the 29-year-old is going to start selling steaks soon:
"You have an unreal merch game. First NFT's, now beef. Get that money mate."
@darrentill2 @arielhelwani @darrentill2 you have an unreal merch game.
First NFT’s, now beef. Get that money mate https://t.co/sPcAGR6h86
Twitter user @Ijr1975 instead believes the steak resembles the world famous monolithic statue heads found in Chile:
"Looks like one of those giant heads on Easter Island."

Dana White reacts to Darren Till's latest loss
During UFC 282's post-fight presser, Dana White responded to questions from journalists in regards to Darren Till and his future in the organization.
According to the UFC president, despite a third loss in a row for Till, he doesn't believe the fighter's stock has dropped in the slightest. 'The Gorilla's' fight against Dricus Du Plessis was awarded the Fight of the Night bonus and according to White, Till's ability to weather the storm in the first round proved he's where he belongs:
"I mean that's Fight of the Night. I don't think his stock drops at all. You know, if he went out there and got destroyed in the first round, like it looked like it was gonna happen, but it did the exact opposite, he weathered that storm, stayed out of submissions. Then he comes back and you think he's gonna win the fight."
Dana White continued:
"I thought it was an awesome fight, that's why it was Fight of the Night and I don't think his stock dropped at all."
