Darren Till is stepping back into the limelight, but this time, it won't be inside the UFC's octagon. The former UFC title contender is set to square off against undefeated boxer and social media star Tommy Fury at the highly anticipated Misfits Boxing 20 event on January 18, 2024, at Co-Op Live in Manchester, England.
After parting ways with the UFC in 2023, Darren Till is now exploring new avenues in combat sports. Till’s career in the octagon ended on a rocky note, with three consecutive losses leading to his departure. However, his spirit remains unbroken. In his first venture into boxing, Till earned a decisive third-round TKO victory over Mohammad Mutie at Social Knockout 3 in July, marking his first win in nearly five years. The Liverpool native, who once fought for UFC gold against Tyron Woodley in 2018, is now set on shaking up the boxing scene.
On the other side of the ring stands Tommy Fury, an undefeated boxer who has become a household name thanks to his influencer status and impressive victories. Fury is best known for handing Jake Paul his first defeat, winning by decision in a hotly debated matchup in February 2023. More recently, Fury secured another high-profile victory by defeating KSI via unanimous decision at Misfits Boxing’s Prime Card event.
The showdown between Till and Fury promises to be a clash of styles. With Till’s striking background from MMA and Fury’s undefeated boxing record, fans are eager to see how these two will match up.
This fight not only represents a pivotal moment for Till, who is eager to prove himself outside the confines of the UFC but also for Fury, who looks to extend his undefeated streak and further cement his reputation as one of the sport’s rising stars. With both fighters aiming to make a statement, January 18 is shaping up to be an unmissable night for combat sports fans.
