Darren Till Signs Multi-Fight Deal With BKFC, Eyes May 30 Debut in Birmingham

The move follows a three-fight surge in Misfits Boxing, signaling a push for marquee grudge bouts under bare-knuckle rules.

Overview

  • BKFC officials confirmed Wednesday that the former UFC contender signed a multi-fight contract with the bare-knuckle promotion.
  • He is targeted to debut May 30 at BKFC 90 at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena with the opponent not yet named.
  • The move follows three Misfits Boxing wins in 2025, including a knockout of Luke Rockhold to claim the group’s inaugural bridgerweight title.
  • Till had previously said he avoided bare-knuckle fighting out of concern for facial damage, yet he now commits to the switch.
  • The deal renews talk of a long-discussed bout with BKFC star Mike Perry, though Perry is booked to face Nate Diaz on May 16.
