Darren Till Wants Mike Perry Fight to Kick Off 2025, Predicts Stadium Sellout
Darren Till remains convinced a fight with Mike Perry would be a major draw, capable of filling a stadium.
Till recently headlined BKFC 94, defeating former UFC fighter Yoel Romero via unanimous decision. This victory marks his second in bare-knuckle boxing.
With the Romero bout concluded, Till is now focused on the long-anticipated matchup with Perry. Speaking after the BKFC 94 event, Till expressed his belief that a clash with Perry, even after years of back-and-forth, could still generate significant revenue in 2025.
"It's been eight years in the making, me and Mike Perry," Till stated. "People will have their opinions, but I personally think Mike Perry and I would sell out a stadium. Given our history, the eight years of exchanges, what could come of that? I sold out the arena tonight. I respect Yoel immensely, he's a phenomenal fighter, but this was my arena tonight. If Mike Perry and I fight, we'll sell out a stadium."
Till added, "If Mike wants to return and be the 'A' side, get more money, whatever. My managers hate me for saying this, but I don't care. I want that fight. I want it to start next year if David [Feldman] can make it happen."
Perry is currently recovering from a dislocation sustained during his loss to Brandon Jenkins in August. BKFC president David Feldman has indicated he hopes to book Perry vs. Till in the near future.
Darren Till Still Believes Mike Perry Fight Will Sell Out a Stadium: “I Want That Fight to Start Next Year”
Darren Till is confident that a fight with Mike Perry is not only possible but could also draw a stadium crowd.
Till recently participated in the BKFC 94 main event, facing former UFC fighter Yoel Romero. He secured a unanimous decision win after a bout that went the full distance, improving his bare-knuckle boxing record to 2-0.
Now that the Romero fight is behind him, Till is pursuing a grudge match he's wanted for some time. At the BKFC 94 post-fight press conference, Till shared his view that a fight with Perry could still be highly profitable in 2025.
"It's been eight years, me and Mike Perry, and people will have other opinions," Till said. "I personally think me and Perry would sell out a stadium. The history, the back-and-forth for eight years – what could come of that? I sold out that arena tonight. I respect Yoel more than anything, he's a phenom, but that was my arena tonight. If Mike Perry and I fight, we'll sell out a stadium."
"If Mike wants to come back here and be the 'A' side and get more money or whatever, my managers hate me for saying this, but I don't give a f*ck," he continued. "But I want that fight. I want that fight to start next year if David [Feldman] can make that happen and I know he can."
Perry is recovering from a dislocation suffered in his recent upset loss to Brandon Jenkins. BKFC president David Feldman is reportedly looking to book Perry vs. Till soon.
