Darren Till Outlines Ambitious 2026 Plan in Misfits Boxing
Former UFC title challenger Darren Till is setting the tone for a massive 2026 campaign under the Misfits Boxing banner. Having made a successful transition from MMA to crossover boxing, Till has now laid out his ideal fight schedule, and it’s loaded with big names and high stakes.
Planned Activity: 3 to 4 Fights in 2026
Till aims to stay highly active, stating he wants to fight three or four times in 2026. This would mark a sharp uptick in activity for the Liverpudlian, who previously fought sporadically in MMA. Now rejuvenated in boxing, Till sees Misfits as the perfect platform to rebuild momentum and entertain fans.
Targeted Opponents
1. Chase DeMoor (Heavyweight Champion)
A matchup between Till and Chase DeMoor has been rumored for months. DeMoor is the reigning Misfits Heavyweight Champion and a central figure in the influencer fight scene. Till, who’s looked comfortable in the Bridgerweight class (~200–224 lbs), sees a fight with DeMoor as a blockbuster event, and a chance to claim gold in his new sport.
2. Mike Perry
Till and Mike Perry have a long-standing rivalry that traces back to their UFC days. Perry, now a successful bare-knuckle boxer, has also expressed interest in crossing over to the Misfits ring. This would be a violent, high-intensity scrap with real history behind it.
3. Nate Diaz
Another UFC veteran, Nate Diaz is on Till’s wishlist. Diaz has flirted with boxing (including a bout against Jake Paul), and a fight with Till would be a natural draw. Both men have fan-favorite status, unfiltered personas, and real striking backgrounds. This could be a crossover PPV hit.
4. Jake Paul
Till isn’t shy about his ambition, he’s eyeing Jake Paul as a future opponent. Paul remains one of the biggest stars in crossover boxing, and a clash with Till would represent a showdown between a legitimate former UFC contender and the face of influencer combat sports.
