The upcoming match will be part of the undercard for the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul event at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. It's set for six rounds and a catchweight of 190lbs.

Darren Till, aged 31, recently left the UFC after an eight-year stint. Excited about his opponent, former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., Till expressed his determination to secure a first-round knockout.

His last bout was a loss to middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis in December 2022, making this upcoming boxing match a significant transition for him.
