Garry has emerged as a polarizing figure in recent years for a variety of reasons, including frequently switching gyms and allegations about his marriage. The former Cage Warriors champ’s recent claim that women are better suited to run the world is the latest remark that has drawn reactions from prominent fighters, including Till and Garry’s next opponent, Islam Makhachev.

Ian Garry’s comments about women continue to fuel criticism ahead of UFC 330
Garry’s comments came during a recent podcast appearance in which he claimed that if men listened to women and let them take over the world, it would be a better place.
“If the world was run by women, we’d all live in a better world,” Garry said on the “High Performance” podcast. “If we just listened to them and let them take over, it would be an easier world.”
While Till, who has four daughters, acknowledges women’s power, he claims Garry is just trying to “buy love.”
“I’m not a hateful guy. I don’t hate Ian Garry,” Till told The Mac Life. “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 my missus and stuff like that. Powerful women, of course, we love that, but it’s just the things he says. And it’s always like he’s trying to buy love. If he was a bit more like me, mate, people would love him, because he’s obviously a great fighter.”
The Briton sees Garry’s public persona as inauthentic and believes that fans can see right through it.
“The one thing as well, people can see and know a fake guy,” Till added. “And he’s got fake written all over him. For me he has, anyway.”
Garry will face Makhachev for the welterweight title at UFC 330 on Aug. 15 at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia. The reigning welterweight champion has also weighed in on Garry’s recent comments, questioning whether the challenger’s wife has influenced his opinions.
“He looks very bad in this interview. Better he does training more and less interview,” Makhachev told MMA Junkie. “It looks like somebody in the house controls him and tells him what to say in the interview.”
