MMA Community REACTS to Darren Till KNOCKING OUT Luke Rockhold! Tony Ferguson FINISHES Salt Papi!

Fight fans are in shock after a wild night of combat sports chaos that saw Darren Till brutally knock out Luke Rockhold and Tony Ferguson finishing social media star Salt Papi in front of a stunned crowd. The MMA community has exploded with reactions—some cheering, some laughing, and some downright horrified.

Darren Till Ends Luke Rockhold’s Comeback Dream

Former UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold was looking to mount a comeback, but Darren Till had other plans. In the second round, Till unleashed a devastating left hand that sent Rockhold crashing to the canvas.

“Rockhold’s chin just can’t take shots anymore, man. Sad to see.”

“Darren Till NEEDED this win. Vintage Till with that KO.”

“That might be the last time we see Luke in a fight. Retire, bro.”

Rockhold’s fans were devastated, while others argued it’s time for him to hang up the gloves for good.

Tony Ferguson Destroys Salt Papi

Perhaps the most bizarre matchup of the night came when MMA veteran Tony Ferguson faced off against YouTube boxing star Salt Papi. Many thought Ferguson’s losing streak in the UFC meant Salt Papi had a chance. They were wrong.

“El Cucuy” swarmed Papi from the opening bell, overwhelming him with relentless pressure before locking in a nasty D’Arce choke for the finish. The influencer had no choice but to tap, leaving the crowd both stunned and entertained.

“Tony finally gets a W—Salt Papi just wasn’t ready for real smoke.”

“That was a mismatch from the start. Respect to Papi for stepping in, though.”

“El Cucuy back in the win column, but against a YouTuber? C’mon…”

Fighters React

The wider MMA community jumped on social media immediately:

Jorge Masvidal: “Darren Till slept Rockhold bad! Damn.”

Sean Strickland: “Tony beating up influencers now 😂 dude’s gotta chill.”

Khamzat Chimaev: “My boy Till is BACK. Big fights coming.”

Even boxing fans chimed in, clowning Salt Papi for biting off more than he could chew.

Final Thoughts

This night will go down as one of the strangest crossover events in recent fight memory. Darren Till may have just revived his career with a statement knockout, while Tony Ferguson reminded the world that—even past his UFC prime—he’s still a nightmare to deal with.

But the big question remains:

Should Rockhold retire for good?

And will Salt Papi ever dare to step into an MMA cage again?
