Darren Till has not fought in 2023
Darren Till hasn’t seen fighting action since parting ways with the UFC in early 2023, after losses in five of his last six bouts. In his last fight, at UFC 282 last December, he lost to Dricus du Plessis, who will now fight for the title next.
The-30-year-old Liverpudlian joined the UFC as an undefeated fighter in 2015, after 12 straight wins. In his promotional debut he knocked out Wendell de Oliveira in the second round. During his years on the promotion he fought some of the absolute best fighters at both welterweight and middleweight, such as Tyron Woodley, Jorge Masvidal, Robert Whittaker and Stephen ”Wonderboy” Thompson.
Karate Combat’s next event will be a highly interesting matchup between former UFC lightweight champions Benson Henderson and Anthony ”Showtime” Pettis. It will be held on December 15.
