The former UFC title challenger will square off against Aaron Chalmers at BKFC 90 on May 30 in Birmingham England. Till announced the bout during an appearance on “The Ariel Helwani Show” on Tuesday. Till also revealed that he signed a “massive,” three-fight contract with the organization.
Earlier this month, Till announced that he was parting ways with Misfits Boxing, with an announcement regarding his next move coming soon. “The Gorilla” went 3-0 while capturing a title during his stint under the Misfits banner. Till emerged as a star early in his UFC career thanks to victories over welterweight stalwarts such as Donald Cerrone and Stephen Thompson. After suffering a second-round submission defeat against Tyron Woodley in a 170-pound title bout in September 2018, the Liverpool native was never the same, ending his promotional tenure with losses in four of his next five appearances.
Reality TV Meets Combat Sports
While Chalmers was a cast member on the UK reality TV show “Geordie Shore,” he also has his fair share of combat sports experience. The 38-year-old compiled a 5-2 record in MMA while competing for Bellator and BAMMA. Since then, Chalmers has competed in number of exhibition boxing bouts, and he has also gone 2-0 under the BKFC banner.
