Overview
- Darren Till, in a Tuesday interview on The Ariel Helwani Show, said UFC CEO Dana White’s ego is “out of control” and claimed White is “totally switched off” from the promotion.
- Till said an MMA return is unlikely in the near term and he is set for a bare-knuckle boxing debut at BKFC 90 on May 30 in Birmingham, England.
- He criticized the UFC’s shift to computer‑generated promo videos, contrasting them with past cinematic packages such as Holm–Rousey and Jones–Cormier that built anticipation.
- Till took aim at White’s recent “Who gives a s***?” replies to reporters, saying the dismissive tone dodges fair questions that fans want answered.
- The UFC is pressing on with AI promos and a June 14 White House lawn event headlined by Ilia Topuria vs. Justin Gaethje with Alex Pereira vs. Ciryl Gane on the card, despite mixed reactions to the lineup and marketing.
