This past weekend was a big one for former UFC stars making their way into the boxing world as Saturday night’s major contest saw Nate Diaz take on Jorge Masvidal inside the ring.

On the same night, former UFC title challenger Darren Till also stepped through the ropes for the first time when making his long awaited return to competition at Social Knockout 3.

Whilst he took this fight just to try and stay active after his bout on the undercard of Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fell off, Till hopes to mix it up with the big names in this scene in the near future.

With both Masvidal and Diaz being potential opponents for him inside the ring, he was sure to have a keen eye on their rematch that went down in California…

Darren Till Not Impressed By What He Saw From Nate Diaz & Jorge Masvidal

The general consensus seemed to be that the boxing clash between Masvidal and Diaz ended up being a better watch that some may have expected.

Till didn’t see the fight that way, however, as he outlined during his appearance on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani.

“The Gorilla” wasn’t particularly impressed by what he saw from either man but didn’t want to discredit them too much due to the respect he has for them both.

“I wasn’t impressed mate. Just like, fluffy hands, just not a lot of power, both looked like they wasn’t in no fit physical shape. But as I say, Masvidal, I fought and he beat me fair and square. Diaz, I don’t ever like to diss Diaz too much, I’ve always been a fan since a kid. I think he’s a f****** G of the sport, he’s one of your real ones. Whether you want it in the ring or outside, he’s that guy and that’s what I respect.”

Till, meanwhile, emerged victorious in bizarre fashion after his opponent claimed to be unable to continue following a shot to the back of the head.

After a brawl between the pair was split up, the Liverpool native was awarded the victory by way of TKO, marking his first combat sports win since 2019.

Darren Till refuses to fight Mike Perry in BKFC grudge match: ‘I’m not busting my face up at 31’

Former UFC fighter Darren Till isn’t interested in fighting Mike Perry bare-knuckle but would box him.

Till and Perry have taken shots at one another for years now and many fans have wanted to see them fight, but nothing has come to fruition. However, Till is hopeful the two fight but says it won’t be in bare-knuckle.

“I don’t care, I will fight him,” Darren Till explained on The MMA Hour. “I’m not saying no because I’m scared, I’m saying no because I don’t need to fight bare-knuckle right now. I’m not busting my face up at 31, f— that. What birds are going to look at me?”

Till is coming off his boxing debut where he fought Mohammad Mutie at Social Knockout 3. After touching Mutie in the back of the head, his opponent rolled on the floor and couldn’t continue and the ref gave the win to Till. After the fight, Mutie tried to brawl Till, which he didn’t seem to care about.

“Mate, you’re an MMA fighter and you’re a fighter. This shit happens,” Darren Till said. “You’re rolling around on the floor for 20 minutes? Like, paramedics in there? And I’m just looking in disbelief, I’m like, ‘Is this really happening in my return?’ I just couldn’t believe it. I just think he just wanted a way out. He just felt my power in there, he knew I was finding my range, I was probably going to knock him out in that round. That’s what I was thinking in my head. And then, yeah, get the win off that, and then hell ensued.”

Till called out Jake Paul, Mike Perry, Jorge Masvidal, or Nate Diaz and believes he can get one of them next time out.

“There was a definitive winner, mate. The guy was rolling around for 20 minutes on the floor,” Till said when asked about a rematch. “He’s had his five minutes of fame. That was just a get-me-out-quick thing. He was never, ever going to win the fight. He was never going to do anything. He knows that as well. Even before the fight, he knew that.”

Till is currently 1-0 as a boxer and does not have his next fight booked.

Ex-UFC star Darren Till wants ‘real fight’ with Nate Diaz after brawl breaks out in his boxing debut

After the clusterf*ck that was his pro boxing debut, ex-UFC star Darren Till is ready for a real fight.

More than a year after exiting the Octagon on a three-fight losing skid, ‘The Gorilla’ made his squared circle debut as part of the Social Knockout 3 card in Dubai. There, Till was matched up with 2-2-1 MMA fighter Moh Mutie. After a fairly uninteresting opening round, things got downright crazy in the second after Mutie complained that Till hit him in the back of the head.

Replay showed that the blow was nothing more than a glancing shot, but that didn’t stop Mutie from clutching the back of his head and laying down on the canvas as though he were dying.

However, Mutie suddenly sprang to life when he realized that the referee wasn’t buying the act and awarded Till the win via TKO. That prompted the Palestinian fighter to instigate an all-out brawl with the former welterweight title challenger.

With his own fight, if you can call it that, in the books, Till turned his attention toward Saturday night’s scrap between Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz in Anaheim. After 10 rounds of entertaining action, the ‘Stockton Samurai’ was awarded the victory via majority decision.

That prompted ‘The Gorilla’ to take to social media and declare his desire for a “real fight” with the realest fighter out there.

“Just thinking…,” Till wrote on Instagram. “Need a real boxing fight…”

With most of Nate Diaz’s hitlist preoccupied, is Darren till the perfect opponent for his next boxing match?

Diaz’s victory over Masvidal comes nearly one year removed from his unanimous decision loss to Jake Paul in his pro boxing debut. Immediately following the fight, Diaz declared his desire to run it back with both ‘The Problem Child’ and reigning UFC welterweight world champion Leon Edwards.

“I’m going to beat Jake Paul’s f*cking ass, and I’m down to fight the highest-ranked boxer I can find, I don’t know who the f*ck he is.”

“My main objective has always been to be the best fighter in the world so I’m going to go back to get a UFC title,” Diaz added. “Leon Edwards, Jake Paul, anybody else, you’re dead.”

With Jake Paul already preoccupied with both ‘Platinum’ Mike Perry and ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson, perhaps Darren Till would be the perfect opponent for Diaz’s next appearance inside the squared circle.

Darren Till’s boxing debut was nothing short of an utter sh*t show.

After making a name for himself inside the Octagon, Till exited the UFC in early 2023 to test his skills in the world of boxing. More than a year later, he finally stepped inside the squared circle for a scrap with Mohammad Mutie at the Social Knockout 3 event in Dubai.

In the opening minute of the second round, Till landed a rabbit punch on his opponent while in a clinch. Though the strike landed on the back of Mutie’s head, the blow had about as much force on it as a cool breeze on a hot summer’s day. Still, that didn’t stop Mutie from milking the situation, clutching the back of his head before laying down as if he were dying.

Despite complaints of an illegal blow, Till was awarded the win via TKO after Mutie was unable to continue.

That prompted Mutie to rush Till inside the ring, kickstarting an all-out brawl.

Darren Till’s boxing brawl is becoming an all-too-familiar scene in the sport

It’s certainly not the first time a brawl has broken out immediately following a boxing match. Hell, it’s not even the first time it’s happened in the last year. The teams of Logan Paul and Dillon Danis famously brawled in the waning seconds of their lackluster scrap in October after Danis appeared to shoot for a takedown on the WWE Superstar.

A few months before that, an exhibition match between legendary pugilist and John Gotti III ended in a brawl after Gotti was DQ’d for holding.

And who can forget the press conference scuffle between Jorge Masvidal and everyone on Nate Diaz’s team except Diaz himself, who fled the scene shortly after instigating things?

Just chalk this up as another embarrassing moment for the sport of boxing.

Former UFC title challenger Darren Till is set to finally make his combat sports return this weekend after taking a late-notice fight at Social Knockout 3 in Dubai.

Till was previously scheduled to make his long awaited boxing debut against Julio César Chávez Jr. on the undercard of Jake Paul’s fight with Mike Tyson. With that card being postponed until November, the fight was off, but the Brit hopes that he will still be a part of that event in some capacity when it takes place later this year.

It has taken him a long time to get back in the mix, and after having this big fight collapse, he doesn’t want to lose out on the big opportunities that could have come with getting a win on July 20.

Till is still targeting two of the biggest names that are out there for him in boxing as they’re set to meet on the originally planned date for Paul vs. Tyson.

Darren Till Talks Wanting To Face Jake Paul & Mike Perry, Predicts Their Upcoming Fight

In an interview with Fred Talks Fighting ahead of his return to competition, Till laid out his plans for the near future.

Regardless of what happens on July 20, he is hoping to face either Mike Perry or Jake Paul, and there’s no denying that both fights would be big occasions for “The Gorilla.”

“I think it’s either Jake Paul or Mike Perry at this point. Me and Mike Perry have got a lot of history. … It’s always beef, it’s always war with Mike. We always push for war, never peace.”

Till also gave his prediction for the upcoming clash between Perry and Paul that was announced shortly after the postponement of the Tyson fight.

The former UFC fighter finds it difficult to call a winner because of what both men bring to the table, but he is leaning ever so slightly toward “The Problem Child.”

“I keep 50:50 on both, some days I say Jake ‘cause I know Jake’s the bigger man, but then I don’t think you can rule Perry out. Perry’s a tough man and he’s been beating all these veterans now. like, I think it’s a 50:50. I’m gonna sway towards Jake a little bit more.”

Darren Till vows to KO Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., call for fight with Jake Paul: ‘I’ll be right there’

Darren Till will be making his boxing debut on July 20 against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. on the Jake…

Darren Till will be making his boxing debut on July 20 against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. on the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson undercard on July 20.

Till asked for his release from the UFC to heal up his injuries and will now be turning to boxing. Although Till has said he will fight in the UFC again, he is booked to face Chavez Jr. in an intriguing matchup.

Although Till doesn’t have any prior boxing experience, he does believe he will be able to upset Chavez Jr., and he expects to do so by KO.

“Man, they’ve just got to make a statement,” Paul told The Schmo. “A KO, win the crowd over and do so good that I see their skill and I am impressed by them and want to make a big fight with them happen.”

If Darren Till does KO Chavez Jr. it would be an upset as the oddsmakers have the Mexican as a -400 favorite while Till is a +275 underdog.

Darren Till plans to call out Jake Paul

One fight that Till has his eye on is Jake Paul as he knows it would be a fight that the fans would want to see, especially if he KO’s Chavez Jr. just moments before Paul faces Tyson.

“When I do win, when I knock Chavez Jr. out, I’m going to get on the mic or whatever, watch Jake’s fight, and I’ll be right there in the mix,” Till said. “I’m going to hold him to that fight now. F*ck him fighting Tommy (Fury), f*ck him fighting anyone else, all this McGregor – I’m the same size as him, so let’s see. Most probably (jumping into the ring) after the winner with a pint, just jumping in. I probably will do that.”

Darren Till has not fought since December of 2022 when he suffered a submission loss to Dricus Du Plessis.
