Darren Till Knocks Out Luke Rockhold in Round 3 to Claim Misfits Bridgerweight Title

The DAZN pay-per-view highlighted Misfits’ crossover model, with Tony Ferguson snapping his skid by knockout and Dillon Danis winning by quick submission.

Overview

  • Misfits X Series 22 took place Aug. 30 at Manchester’s AO Arena, matching former UFC fighters with influencers and reality-TV personalities on DAZN pay-per-view.
  • Following a volatile build-up featuring security interventions, a reported Rockhold–Danis backstage scuffle, and a late shift to eight scheduled rounds, Till ended the main event with a clean left-hand finish.
  • The win advanced Till to 3-0 under the Misfits banner in 2025 and bolstered his standing as one of the promotion’s leading names.
  • In the co-main event, Tony Ferguson recorded his first post-UFC victory by stopping Salt Papi in the third round.
  • Dillon Danis submitted Warren Spencer in roughly 15 seconds in an MMA bout on the undercard, while celebrity fights featuring Joey Essex and Demi Sims rounded out the card.
