‘Quarantine madness!’ Stephen Thompson zings Darren Till

Have these lockdown times gotten “NMF” Stephen Thompson to turn heel?

In a friendly Twitter spat between ESPN journalist Ariel Helwani and Darren Till, Thompson decided to chime in by throwing a little zinger toward the latter in reference to their UFC Liverpool fight in 2018.

Till edged “Wonderboy” by unanimous decision in a fight where he missed weight by three pounds. And Thompson made sure to let him know.

I was actually at both of those fights…I’m pretty sure GSP didn’t miss weight either Thinking face Thinking face

I was at that fight too…technically, just stating facts here, Kelvin did not miss weight. #TrainerGate2019 #ShoulderToLeanOn

Looks like Thompson may have officially gone from “NMF” to “BMF.”

I think I’m gettin that quarantine madness!

After losing three of four, Thompson rebounded with a unanimous decision win over Vicente Luque last November, putting on an absolute striking clinic.
