Darren Till is 10 days away from crossing the first hurdle of his UFC 228 title challenge against Tyron Woodley, and next Friday morning’s weigh-ins can’t come soon enough.
A behemoth welterweight, Till has badly missed weight twice in the UFC, first tipping the scales at 176 pounds in 2017 ahead of UFC Stockholm, then missing his mark by weighing 174 pounds for his recent decision win over Stephen Thompson in May. Despite that, the UFC awarded the undefeated 25-year-old a Sept. 8 title shot against Woodley at UFC 228.
