Darren Till and Mike Perry have a long-awaited showdown in the works. Find out more about their history and their plans for a boxing match.
Darren Till and Mike Perry have been on a collision course for years. The two brash fighters, once considered rising stars in the UFC Welterweight division, almost came to blows back in 2017. Till was headlining his first UFC card and delivered a stunning first-round knockout of Donald Cerrone. Perry, who was in attendance that night, engaged in a heated exchange with Till but the fight never materialized.
Now, both fighters find themselves in the post-MMA stages of their careers and have set their sights on boxing matches against some of the biggest names in the sport. However, they soon realized that the most intriguing matchup might be against each other.
Till took to Twitter to express his desire to box Nate Diaz, a veteran of the fight game. Perry, on the other hand, called out Till, as well as Jake Paul, stating that he wants to make the fights that the fans want to see. Till responded, suggesting that he and Perry should fight each other.
While Perry has found success in his bare-knuckle boxing career with a 4-0 record, Till has yet to compete since leaving the UFC in 2022. The former Welterweight contender, who has a record of 18-5-1, has expressed his intention to return to the sport.
It remains to be seen if Till and Perry will finally step into the ring together, but fans are eagerly awaiting a showdown between these two fighters who have a history of animosity and unfinished business.
