Darren Till has revealed that he will be in the corner of Khamzat Chimaev for his upcoming UFC 273 fight against Gilbert Burns. Till recently made his way to Sweden to train alongside Chimaev.

'The Gorilla' has been on a rough patch in the UFC. The former welterweight title contender has three losses in his last four fights, with the latest one being against Derek Brunson in 2021.

During Till and Chimaev's recent conversation on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani, Till claimed that he is helping Chimaev prepare for his upcoming fight and expects 'Borz' to do the same. He said:

"I'm helping him [Khamzat] for this fight so that after his fight, he can help me with mine and that's just how it is, that's how it is, brother."
