Overview

• Rockhold, 40, faces Darren Till on August 30 at Manchester’s AO Arena with the card broadcast on DAZN.
• The bout marks Rockhold’s first professional boxing match and headlines Misfits Boxing 22.
• Rockhold’s career includes a 2015 UFC middleweight title win over Chris Weidman followed by high-profile stoppage losses to Michael Bisping, Yoel Romero and Jan Blachowicz.
• He also moved to bare-knuckle in 2023, where Mike Perry forced a second-round stoppage after Rockhold removed his mouthpiece.
• Till enters with two boxing victories in 2025, and recent previews present Rockhold as the underdog in a late-career bid to reset his trajectory.
