Since moving up to the UFC Middleweight Division, Darren Till has been calling out 185-pounders left, right, and center. However, one man who 'The Gorilla' has been avoiding at all costs is Yoel Romero.

Romero, who challenges for the UFC Middleweight Championship this weekend, spoke with Ariel Helwani ahead of the fight and responded to Till's jokes about avoiding him in the MW division.
