With the fight seemingly on and off in recent weeks, Till claimed earlier this week that he’s agreed to the bout for UFC 248 on March 7 in Las Vegas.
He even tweeted a fanmade poster of him and Cannonier with the date of the event as the caption in a post on Thursday, leading many to believe that the fight was close to being finalized.

However, that unfortunately isn’t the case as per ESPN’s Brett Okamoto who claims the fight won’t be happening at UFC 248.
“Based on conversations I’ve had, a potentially sweet middleweight fight between Darren Till and Jared Cannonier is NOT going to happen on March 7 in Las Vegas,” Okamoto tweeted on Thursday.
It remains to be seen whether the two middleweight contenders will compete in a future event. However, Cannonier could still serve as the backup for the UFC 248 headliner between middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and Yoel Romero.
Cannonier was originally supposed to face former middleweight champion Robert Whittaker at UFC 248 until the latter had to pull out due to undisclosed personal reasons.
What do you think will happen with Till and Cannonier?
Israel Adesanya will face a steep test in his first-ever UFC middleweight title defense. Adesanya puts his 185-pound strap on the line against Yoel Romero in the UFC 248 pay-per-view (PPV) main event on March 7 from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. It’s an interesting matchup for “Stylebender,” as many believe Romero’s wrestling […]
Israel Adesanya will face a steep test in his first-ever UFC middleweight title defense.
Adesanya puts his 185-pound strap on the line against Yoel Romero in the UFC 248 pay-per-view (PPV) main event on March 7 from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. It’s an interesting matchup for “Stylebender,” as many believe Romero’s wrestling ability will be difficult for the striker to deal with. However, speaking to Yahoo! Sports’ Kevin Iole in a recent interview, Adesanya explained that his footwork will be key in dealing with Romero’s wrestling.
“Well, I can control where the fight goes as well, because of my footwork,” Adesanya said. “Like I said, wrestling doesn’t always start straight away from the clinch, it starts from the feet. Where your feet are placed. And he’s flat-footed. I am not. I have really good footwork, and also, when he gets his hands on you, it’s hard to get your hands on me when you can’t see me. And he keeps saying, ‘I see you soon, boy.’ But you won’t.”
Romero is coming off of a loss to Paulo Costa, who was originally expected to challenge Adesanya first. Unfortunately, Costa suffered an injury that forced him to be on the sideline for several months, and Adesanya decided to call out who many believe is the most dangerous fight in the division instead. Should Adesanya manage to earn a successful title defense over Romero in March, it will be an extraordinary way to kick off his title reign.
The Nigerian-born champion will then have no shortage of challengers if that’s the case, as he already has beef with the likes of light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and middleweight contender Paulo Costa. Adesanya also recognizes the work being put in by rising contender Jared Cannonier, who is expected to face Darren Till at UFC 248 as well.
