Darren Till clarifies that his past jokes about avoiding Yoel Romero were not serious, as he addresses their intense four-minute faceoff ahead of BKFC 92.

Darren Till has provided insight into the viral four-minute stare-down with Yoel Romero ahead of their upcoming clash at BKFC 92. The prolonged faceoff drew significant attention from fans and pundits, highlighting the palpable tension between the two combatants as they prepare to transition into bare-knuckle competition.

Addressing the moment, Till acknowledged the unique atmosphere of the stare-down while reflecting on his past comments regarding a potential matchup with the Olympic silver medalist. During his tenure in the UFC, Till frequently joked about his desire to avoid a collision with the formidable wrestler. However, speaking with MMA Fighting, the British striker clarified that those previous remarks were made in jest, emphasizing that his current commitment to the BKFC 92 bout is strictly professional.

Till maintains that despite his humorously candid past, he is fully prepared to engage in a physical battle with Romero. The transition to bare-knuckle boxing presents a new stylistic challenge for both men, and Till is focused on executing his game plan rather than dwelling on the theatrics of the pre-fight proceedings. With the contest now officially on the books, both fighters are shifting their focus to the upcoming event, where their preparation will be put to the ultimate test under the BKFC banner.
