Former UFC star Darren Till has an unorthodox name in mind for his next high-profile fight in the boxing ring.<\/p>\n

\"Darren<\/p>\n

Darren Till\u2019s latest professional boxing match couldn\u2019t\u2019ve gone much better as he knocked former UFC champion Luke Rockhold out cold at Misfits Boxing 22 last month in Manchester. After weeks of trash talk between the former UFC standouts, Till sent Rockhold into retirement with a brutal left hand<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Till has repeatedly called for a matchup with Jake Paul in the ring, but as of this writing, it\u2019s unclear if Paul shares interest. Paul is set to face Gervonta Davis in a highly anticipated fight later this year.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Till has another massive name in mind for his next fight, and it isn\u2019t a former rival or a fellow UFC legend.<\/p>\n

Darren Till vs. Andrew Tate in the mix?<\/p>\n

During a recent interview on The Ariel Helwani Show<\/a>, Till targeted one of the promotion\u2019s newest signees for his next appearance in the ring.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m definitely fighting again this year. December,\u201d Till said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d say Andrew Tate, more than likely. I\u2019d think [a professional fight].\u201d<\/p>\n

Misfits Boxing made headlines earlier this year when they signed Tate to a lucrative contract. Despite not making his promotional debut, Tate debuted in the promotion\u2019s pound-for-pound rankings, despite the protest of fans and critics.<\/p>\n

While Tate is highly controversial outside of combat sports, he\u2019s a legitimate threat in a fight, as evidenced by his decorated career in professional kickboxing.<\/p>\n

Till went on to hit at one of his formerly scheduled opponents, Tommy Fury, as he continues to make the case to settle their beef in the ring.<\/p>\n

\u201cTommy Fury is moaning to his father, how tough life is,\u201d Till said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has way more money than me, probably better looking than me. Wife, brother is a world champion, got a big mansion.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat are you moaning about, you f\u2014\u2013 stiff dope of a man?\u201d<\/p>\n

Till and Fury were supposed to square off earlier this year<\/a> before Fury withdrew from the bout. Fury hasn\u2019t fought since a unanimous decision win over Kenan Hanjalic in May.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former UFC star Darren Till has an unorthodox name in mind for his next high-profile fight in the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":129682,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[447],"tags":[11623,703,49,48,3136,638,82,640],"class_list":{"0":"post-129681","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-andrew-tate","9":"tag-boxing","10":"tag-ca","11":"tag-canada","12":"tag-darren-till","13":"tag-mma","14":"tag-sports","15":"tag-ufc"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129681","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129681"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129681\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/129682"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129681"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129681"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129681"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
