Ex-UFC star Darren Till wants ‘Real Fight’ with Nate Diaz after brawl breaks out in his boxing debut

After the clusterf*ck that was his pro boxing debut, ex-UFC star Darren Till is ready for a real fight.

More than a year after exiting the Octagon on a three-fight losing skid, ‘The Gorilla’ made his squared circle debut as part of the Social Knockout 3 card in Dubai. There, Till was matched up with 2-2-1 MMA fighter Moh Mutie. After a fairly uninteresting opening round, things got downright crazy in the second after Mutie complained that Till hit him in the back of the head.

Replay showed that the blow was nothing more than a glancing shot, but that didn’t stop Mutie from clutching the back of his head and laying down on the canvas as though he were dying.
