Darren Till to make UFC comeback on same night as Paddy Pimblett next fight

Paddy Pimblett Darren Till UFC Liverpool Molly McCann Las Vegas

Liverpool will look to take over Las Vegas on December 10th with Paddy Pimblett and Darren Till being earmarked to fight on the same card.

Till has been out of the octagon for a year after suffering an injury to Derek Brunson before being forced to withdraw from UFC London after another undisclosed injury.

Till has lost four of his last five fights - a potential slippery slope in the UFC who are known to be ruthless with cutting fighters who continue on losing streaks and will hope for a statement victory when he faces a tough opponent in Dricus du Plessis.

Pimblett has revealed that he is looking to fight on that same card in Las Vegas at UFC 282 - saying he has 'his eyes set on the card' on Steve-O's Wild Ride podcast - an event which is also expected to feature the legendary Jon Jones.

Pimblett defended his UFC unbeaten streak when he fought in London in July, defeating Jordan Leavitt at the O2 Arena, his toughest opponent to date, after locking in a rear-naked choke in the second round.
