Welcome to Midnight Mania!<\/p>\n
Short, sweet, and to-the-point, Darren Till (18-2) has called for a fight with Yoel Romero (13-4).<\/p>\n
Fresh off a successful Middleweight debut opposite Kelvin Gastelum<\/a>, Till is looking to keep his momentum rolling and prove himself a top contender at 185 lbs. There’s no better way to do so than defeat Romero, who has only ever been dispatched by the very highest caliber of opponent<\/p>\n It’s a gutsy callout, as taking out Romero is truly a Herculean task. “Soldier of God” has an argument for winning both of his recent losses, and regardless of what you believe about those scorecards, fighting him is guarantee to absorb significant damage. The Cuban has a reputation as being one of the scariest fights possible, and that’s not without good reason.<\/p>\n Currently, Romero is gunning for a title shot<\/a> opposite Israel Adesanya, and the Middleweight champion is open to the possibility. However, if UFC president Dana White stays true to his word<\/a> about Romero requiring a victory before another title shot, this is pretty perfect match up.<\/p>\n
