Regardless, Till emphasized that he's ready to win the UFC Welterweight, Middleweight and Light-Heavyweight title belts. Till added--

“I’m not scared of anyone...I’m not scared of Gunnar’s grappling, I’m not scared of Usman’s wrestling, I’m not scared of Woodley’s power, and I’m not scared of Thompson’s karate. I don’t give a f**k about any of them--I’m not scared of any of them; they should be f**king scared of me because I’m a vicious little c**t, that’s what I am."

The vast majority of MMA experts believe that a fight against Gunnar Nelson in on the cards for Till. This is a rumor worth keeping your eye on, as a victory over Nelson could land Till a UFC Welterweight title shot or at the very least a fight for the number-1 contender status by the end of 2018.
