Darren Till picked up what may have been the biggest win of his professional MMA career when he defeated Donald Cerrone in the main event of UFC Fight Night Gdansk.
The welterđ weight has high hopes for his UFC run and he would like to hold three titles in three different weight clasâses.
âThis has been a thought of mine for a few years now, for the last two or three. Just because of how big I am I know I canât stay at welterweight forever and the way you see a guy like Conor getting the two. To me, now, thatâs already been done, so now I need three. I need to beat him in that because when I say I want to be the greatest, I donât want people to question it and go, âWell hang on, GSP, Jon JonesâŠâ I just want people to say, âDarrenâs at the top, and theyâre all below Darren.â Thatâs what I see and thatâs what will happen,â Till said on .
Several fighters-- Conor McGregor, BJ Penn and đŹRandy Couture have held two titles in two different weight classes in the UFC.
Till wađnts to achieve the three title goal and many more so he can bê§e recognized as the best ever in the UFC.
âYou get guys saying theyâre the best, but people know when I say it itâs f**kinâ true and I believe it,â he said. âIâm talking about the Echo Arena, and after the Echo Arena, Iâm talking Anfield. I know all of this will come true. This is what I know. Itâs no bullsh*t. I know. When I say Iâm going to beat these guys, I know it. When I say Iâm going to be champion in numerous divisions, I know itâs going to happen.â
Thus far in the two-plus decade history of the UFC, nobody has held three titles in three different weight clasđŒses.
