Darren Till Targets Huge Boxing Showdown at Anfield and Reveals Desired Opponent

Darren Till recently made his boxing debut in an exhibition bout, where he defeated Mohammad Mutie by second-round TKO at the Coca-Cola Arena, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Following that win, the ex-UFC star has revealed the opponent he wants to fight and who Till thinks, will help him sell out Anfield, the home of Liverpool FC.

Darren Till Talks Potential Jake Paul Fight

Till is fresh from his boxing debut victory, and despite that being an exhibition, it has not stopped “The Gorilla” from dreaming big. The 31-year-old Liverpool native was a huge attraction in the UFC, which saw him race to an impressive 17-0-1 record before losing in huge fights to Tyron Woodley and Jorge Masvidal. The Liverpudlian lost five of his last six fights before his release from the UFC on 28 February 2023.

Jake Paul is set to face Mike Perry on July 21, but that hasn’t stopped Till from thinking about facing “The Problem Child” at Anfield: “If me and Jake Paul were scheduled to fight, I think we could actually sell out Anfield. Jake Paul is a Liverpool fan. Obviously, I’m a Liverpool fan,” said Till when speaking to CasinoOnlineIn.

Speaking on the potential of a fight against Paul, Till said: “We’d do big numbers just because of how we’d treat the fight. If Jake Paul ever wants to fight me, the fight is there. Obviously, it’s not going to be some area fight, it’s gonna be a stadium fight.” 

The Future for Darren Till

After one exhibition fight, it’s difficult to imagine Till troubling the more experienced Paul – but with a couple more fights, it will be interesting to see how the Liverpool fighter progresses. Till is naturally strong and carried plenty of power in his left hand throughout his UFC career.
