Darren Till has outlined his ambitions in Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) and is open to a fight with the promotion's co-owner, Conor McGregor. The 33-year-old signed a multi-fight deal with BKFC earlier this week, just days after parting ways with Misfits Boxing.
Till, a former UFC welterweight title challenger, will make his BKFC debut on May 30 at BKFC 90 in Birmingham. He has quickly set his sights on major names, including McGregor, who has expressed interest in fighting under the BKFC banner. The Irishman has not fought since 2021 due to a leg injury but has two fights left on his UFC contract.
“If it ever presents itself to me to fight him, obviously me and him would make for a great stadium fight, money fight,” Till said. “Gotta pay me well, though. Gotta pay me really well.”
Beyond McGregor, Till is keen on a long-awaited bout with Mike Perry, the undefeated BKFC star and current 'King of Violence' champion. The pair have a history of animosity, and Till wants to take Perry's belt. He also mentioned potential fights with Nate Diaz and a rematch with Jorge Masvidal, who defeated Till in their 2019 UFC clash.
Till's initial BKFC fight is expected to be a tune-up, but he is determined to make an impact. “The ultimate goal is to face Mike Perry,” he stated, adding that he would love to “steal his King of Violence” title.
