Darren Till called Ian Machado Garry fake after the welterweight contender said the world would be better if women ruled it.

Garry made the comment during his media tour ahead of UFC 330, where he challenges Islam Makhachev for the welterweight title next Saturday. The statement drew criticism from multiple fighters, with Till the latest to pile on.

Till Questions Garry's Authenticity

"I'm not a hateful guy. I don't hate Ian Garry," Till told The Mac Life, per MMA Fighting. "But I just think every time that guy speaks, he just absolutely tarnishes his brand, his image, by what he's talking about. Look, I'm a guy for the power of the women. I have four girls and me missus and stuff like that. Powerful women, of course, we love that, but it's just the things he says."

The former welterweight title challenger added that Garry comes across as insincere. "The one thing as well, people can see and know a fake guy. And he's got fake written all over him," Till said. He suggested Garry is trying too hard to win favor with his public statements.

Till fights Yoel Romero in the main event of BKFC 94 on Sep. 24.
