Nate is returning finally, Wonderboy has yet to except fight with Till

Who would you take if they made this fight? Both fighters beat Cerrone. Nate out classed him in his prime and Till beat a Cowboy that obviously shows the wars he has had took a toll on his body.

Who would you have in that fight at 170?



-----My opinion
I dont get the buzz around Darren Till honestly. He beat Donald Cerrone who dont get me wrong is/was a great fighter but its not like Cowboy was an unbeatable fighter. He has lost to guys he should have beaten (on paper).
So I need to see more of Till before I decide if he is the next big thing or just another hyped Ngannou good for 1 round then dead on his feet, Nate will be perfect to test it.

How does this fight go?? go and watch Nate vs Rory....there you'll find the answer. Nate is a LW .
 
I don't like Nate but I don't wish him getting mauled by Till.
 
I love Nate but I feel like Till would brutally beat him down.

Till beats the breaks off of Diaz, not even a question in my mind who would win.
 
Till via TKO he's WAY fresher than Nate at this point. Also tree times bigger an Nate.
 
First of all, I believed Till was overhyped after the Cowboy fight. Cowboy is a tough fighter, but he was on a losing streak, though. And then I've seen other Till fights. He is legit. I don't know if champion material, but legit. And he is a big WW.

Nate is a tough fighter, but not a top one. He is hard to finish but never had an amazing run. Also, he is a LW... yeah, I know, still 3 times bigger... weird.


I believe Till beats him easily. He might even break Nate's legs...
- big WW
- legit kickboxing
- young and confident

Nate is three times the size of Conor, while Till is a LHW. I’d say Nate wins via size.
 
Nathan has become one of the most overrated fighters on the roster since his win over Conor. He's a LW, and not an elite one. At 170, he'd but full on mauled by a much bigger and stronger Till.
 
We would need subtitles at the press conference
 
Everyone on the Till bandwagon because he beat a way over the hill, comically highly ranked, Cowboy. The guy drew vs Dalby for crying out loud & then decisioned two bums: time to pump the breaks! And in case y'all forgot, the last guy to steamroll Cowboy got steamrolled by Eddie in their next fight. Cowboy is a horrible litmus test, as he is a headcase and has always been hot and cold.
 
I still think Till is unproven; would watch.
 
Big Diaz bros fan, but Till is just too damn big for Nate. Nick would be able to take more of that punishment, but Till would put on a clinic with leg kicks finished off with combos. Nick wouldn't be able to goad/drag Till into the brawl that he needs to be competitive in that fight.

Sadly, most of the top-10 fighters in LW/WW/MW have left the Diaz bros behind. If you can't or are too stubborn to check/mitigate leg kicks, then you're going to have a hard time nowadays unless you are matched up with a fighter that hardly uses that technique.
 
I think Till is a bit unproven,
but it's hard to argue against him until we see some more of him.
I think he's gonna be the Sherdog favorite in many matchups right now cause right now cause we haven't seen his weaknesses.

But it could all change very quickly once a hole in his game is found, just like it did with Ngannou.
 
Anyone with decent low kicks and footwork beats Diaz. Seriously. It's 2018, the game plan for beating a Diaz brother has been out there for years and proven to work many times. You'll win if you follow the plan, but sadly there's still fighters around who are dumb enough to stand in front of a Diaz brother and trade punches.
