Darren Till’s “massive announcement” has been revealed.
The former UFC welterweight title challenger, who also spent time under the Misfits Boxing banner, recently signed a multi-fight contract with Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC). “The Gorilla” will make his in-ring debut at BKFC 90 on Sat., May 30, 2026 inside Utilita Arena in Birmingham, UK.
I guess he’n no longer worried about the “birds” and the bees.
“Darren and I have been talking and the timing is perfect for him to make his BKFC debut,”
said David Feldman, Founder and President of BKFC. “I’ve watched Darren compete for the last few years and he’s a tremendous and exciting addition to our team. We’re expanding rapidly in the United Kingdom; BKFC 90 is a huge event and the perfect place for Darren to make his BKFC debut.”
An opponent is expected to be announced in the coming days.
Till, 33, recently went 3-0 under the Misfits Banner with victories over Anthony Taylor, Darren Stewart, and Luke Rockhold, the latter of which scored Till the Misfits Boxing bridgerweight title. “The Gorilla” also registered one fight for Social Knockouts in his post-UFC fighting career, which began in early 2023.
BKFC 90 is headlined by the interim welterweight title fight between cross-country rivals Connor “Brum Town Bomber” Tierney (9-2) and Rico “Bon Bon” Franco, (10-3).
