10-9 Till

The low output from both of these guys in the past was sort of what I was afraid of for tonight's fight. #UFC244

Yo. Kelvin Gastelum's finger literally stabbed Darren Till's eye. Nasty. #UFC244

— Chamatkar Sandhu (@SandhuMMA) November 3, 2019

They're dancing awkwardly. Crowd restive. #UFC244

— Bloody Elbow (@BloodyElbow) November 3, 2019

Till is so quick with the elbows off the clinch, and the low kicks are adding up. 20-18 Till.

— Brandon Gibson (@SixGunGibson) November 3, 2019

Kelvin needs a finish I think

— Anthony Rocco Martin (@TonyRoccoMartin) November 3, 2019

Crowd is booing the fight. NYC was spoiled tonight. #UFC244

Not sure about this one.

— Chuck Mindenhall (@ChuckMindenhall) November 3, 2019

The size advantage of Till is obvious. Will be interesting to see him compete at this weight moving forward. #ufc244

— Michael Chandler (@MikeChandlerMMA) November 3, 2019

Damn, tense fight. Kelvin Gastelum was looking to end it through the final bell. Not a barnburner, but these guys opened up, while still showing respect for each others power. I enjoyed it. I think it's Darren Till's win.
