HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. – Marvin Vettori thinks Israel Adesanya is trying to bait a reaction out of him by publicly targeting Darren Till for his next middleweight title defense. After failing in his bid to become a dual-UFC champ, Adesanya (20-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC) is expected to return to 185 pounds to put the belt on the line in his next fight. Both the champion and his coaches have said Till is the “frontrunner” in terms of the desired next opponent. The hurdle, however, is that Till (18-3-1 MMA, 6-3-1 UFC) is scheduled to fight Vettori (16-4-1 MMA, 6-2-1 UFC) in the UFC on ABC 2 main event on April 10 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.
