A very solid performance from Till, he showed composure and serious skills with his hands in this one…I think that his stance and style are very much in the McGregor fashion. He’s going to be a tough out for anyone.
Poor old Cerrone, too small to compete, not strong enough push the kid back and looking confused almost after the first 30 seconds of the fight. He also abandoned his kicks instantly in the fight. Not a good look form him. Maybe it’s time to hang’em up for the Cowboy.
Excellent performance and a very easy win for the British fighter. Cerrone was unable to deal with Till’s punching skills looking like an amateur in this bout.
